President Obama defending the mistakes of the previous administration

94. No, I'm not.

The UN security council passed a resolution authorizing member states to take any action against Iraq. That resolution did not exclude invasion from that authorization.

A second resolution explicitly authorizing the invasion probably would have failed, because other countries wanted to give the inspectors more time. Not because those other countries rejected invasion.

But the second resolution was not necessary - the broad wording of the first resolution authorized the invasion.

Please show your bigness by correcting yourself.

Should I hold up a mirror for you?

You demonstrate the danger in lies like the OP. Things that are not true becomes what "everyone knows". Like Al Gore inventing the Internet - never said it, never said anything that was even close to that claim. But "everyone knows" he said it.
