Of all JK's lies, this one is the most disturbing: "The President Is Not Asking You To Go To War"

58. two different things - in his mind

As he said in the 2004 campaign - his vote for the IWR was a vote to give the President the authority to invade. Yet just because the President has the authority, or Kerry believed the President should have the authority, does NOT mean that he has a green light to invade.

A better question would be, how did Kerry vote on the following two resolutions?

"Senator Robert Byrd (D-WVA) introduced S. Res. 28 "expressing the sense of
the Senate that the United Nations weapons inspectors should be given
sufficient time for a thorough assessment of the level of compliance by the
Government of Iraq with United Nations Security Council Resolution 1441
(2002) and that the United States should seek a United Nations Security
Council resolution specifically authorizing the use of force before
initiating any offensive military operations against Iraq." S. Res. 28
currently has six co-sponsors: Senators Bingaman, Boxer, Feinstein, Inouye,
Kennedy, and Sarbanes.

Senator Ted Kennedy (D-MA) introduced S. Res. 32 "expressing the sense of
the Senate with respect to the actions the President should take before any
use of military force against Iraq without the broad support of the
international community." The Kennedy resolution instructs President Bush
to obtain explicit Congressional authorization for waging war on Iraq."

Okay, I see they both died in committee with no vote. I thought there was a Byrd amendment opposing invasion that came much later, but I cannot seem to find it.
