Apparently BO is taking credit for supporting the bill despite the fact he didn't consider it important enough to actually vote for it. Here's the remaining commentary on that blog: >Has this outrageous fib received any mention on TPM or DU? No. You know full well that those sites would have screamed like air raid sirens if the ads pushed Clinton or McCain or anyone but Obama. Kos published a defense of the ad, claiming that Obama had authored sections of the Act even if he would not vote for it. As though anyone should trust Kos after that site pushed the "darkened video" hoax, the "Hillary caused NAFTA-gate hoax," the "Hillary called for Obama's assassination" hoax, and numerous other vile smear-jobs. Not long ago, I saw an amusing exchange on one of the anti-Obama blogs. A reader asked how Obama would have voted on the AUMF if he had been in the Senate, and if the 9/11 attackers had targeted the Sears Tower. Another reader gave the obvious answer: "Present!"<
