What about all the Democrats who said Saddam was making WMDs? Did George Bush force them to say those things?

Not so much Bush as society in general. 2002-3 was still the height of the post-9/11 patriotic jingoism bolstered by the ousting of the Taliban from Afghanistan’s government. Democrats, being politicans like everyone else in Congress, did not want to look “unpatriotic” by disagreeing.
