G Bush as quoted in TPM:

Knowing what I know today, we still would have gone on into Iraq. We still would have gone to make our country more secure. He had the capability of making weapons. He had terrorist ties. The decision I made was the right decision. The world is better off without Saddam Hussein in power.

In other words, the quality of the intelligence and the reality of the data made no difference to decision making, only to window dressing. War was a foregone conclusion when Florida fell to Bush.
