The vote on Iraq was a tough one for Democrats

It was a brilliant stategem for the Bushies. They had the Dems nuts in a vice and they just kept squeezing. What is so horribly cynical is that the resolution vote in October was designed more for electoral effect than for any honest concern about the threat that Saddam posed.

Astonishingly, millions of Americans still support the President's extraordinarily criminal behavior. That is something I'll never understand. Nor will I ever understand why the Democrats didn't follow up on the charge leveled by the German minister, Herta Däubler-Gmelin, explaining that Bush was acting just as Hitler and the Nazis did. Clearly, Bush is taking his lessons from Mein Kampf, Goebbels, Goering and Reifenstal instead of Lincoln, Jefferson and Washington.
