    I don’t remember any glee in the press on the Iraq war

    Probably because you just ate it up and never thought about it again. Why would you remember it as anything but “truth” i.e. Iraq was involved in 9/11, Saddam Hussein had WMDs, we were being cheered as liberators by the Iraqi people, the Dixie Chicks were traitors and Jessica Lynch was was getting gang raped the whole time she was a POW. Because that was what was being reported in the US media at that time.
