Untold numbers of Democrats still support the Iraq invasion and occupation despite overwhelming evidence that it's an unprovoked, unnecessary, illegal, aggressive war based on fabricated 'evidence' and outright lies.

The Democratic candidate for president, the DNC and the DLC did nothing to bring this truth to the American people. The anti-war point of view was/is kept from the public forum by Republicans and Democrats alike.

But with all we now know about the lies and plans to attack Iraq before 9-11...can support for the war be called a simple 'difference of opinion'? Isn't it more appropriate and truthful to call support for the war a lie and deception in and of itself?

There is no simple difference of opinion on Iraq. One side is right and one side is wrong. Democrats who still support it any form should know by now that they were wrong, admit they made a mistake and call for the immediate withdrawal of American troops. Anything less is knowingly supporting a lie and participating in deceiving the American people.
