128. I said it already somewhere |

but just to clarify.
1) the IWR left the final decision to Bush.
2) The arm twisting to get the resolution included broken promises and lies.
3) Public opinion was strongly in favor to pass the resolution to get UN inspections to all facilities in Iraq.
4) The UN inspections which were the main reason for the resolution were then declared worthless by Bush after the fact.
5) By blaming democrats you remove blame from Bush in the eyes of the public and they use it all the time against us. We should not accept any blame as a party as we did not make the decision to go in.
Not that I expect to sway you, but its not like I don't have a case here. There is a case to defend the IWR vote and I get quite tired of the DU line which is highly distorted from the facts.
