Read Kerry's speech when he voted on the war powers. He said it was strictly to make sure Saddam was disarmed, and war only if we have to as a last resort, and then only fully prepared with a Gulf War style coalition. He also said that if Bush broke this pledge, he would be the first to hold his feet to the fire.

Bush promised Kerry and the others that was his plan. But of course Bush lied. Bush has broken a lot of promises and lied man times, but so soon after 9-11, we were all hoping he wasn't as dishonest as we feared.

Did Kerry make a mistake with his vote. In retrospect, yes. But at the time the phony intel they were being shown by Cheney's people and the CIA was very disturbing, especially after 9-11.

I wondered why IRAQ had come up after 9/11. I did a double take the first time Bush mentioned it. I actually was SUPPORTING him post 9/11 until then.

When I took in the speeches by all members of the chimpistration featuring 9/11 and Iraq in the same sentence or paragraph, I began to get the thrust of it. For some reason, the chimpistration wanted to INVADE Iraq! When Condi and the chimp started warning us about "mushroom clouds" - it was just so screamingly obvious that they were lying.

Then when Colin Powell went to the UN and started pointing out buildings (It looked like a big garage to me) and saying it was a bio-weapons lab and trucks that looked like any other truck and saying it's a mobile bio-weapons lab, I KNEW these clowns were going to invade no matter what.

I could not believe that the press and enough of the country seemed to believe these lying weasels! I knew EXACTLY how a good German must have felt when Hitler decided to invade Poland. Totally helpless, surrounded by mass stupidity!
