<font color=blue>"I will be voting to give the President of the United States the authority to use force-- if necessary-- to disarm Saddam Hussein because I believe that a deadly arsenal of weapons of mass destruction in his hands is a real and grave threat to our security."

Clinton didn't start a unilateral war with no post-war plan and almost 100% of the burden on US tax-payers during a deficit-ridden recession. Saddam was not an imminent threat. What was the rush? Why are we paying 500 billion to remove one dictator when there are so many others out there, some even more dangerous? And why aren't we getting any of that oil money Bush promised?

See, this is what happens to the deal-making Democrats. They try to be Bush Lite and get thrashed in the elections anyway, and when Bush is proven to be wrong, they are held out as exhibits!

That is why I am not a big fan of any Democrat Senator/Representative running for President this time -- Kerry, Edwards, Gephardt, Lieberman... None of them had the courage to stand up to Bush before the war.
