They were pushing that narrative pretty fucking hard. At the same time some clown was sending anthrax letters around and they used that too. There were also protests at the white house before the invasion about no war for oil, so it's not like support was universal and plenty of people saw through the ruse.

But then there was that whole freedom fries thing... dear God.

There were protests nationwide, at many college campuses and federal courthouses.

We had over 4,000 people protest at some podunk town. We even had a bunch of news cameras cover it.
