Should we also put up all the lying Republicans put up about how Iraq was tied to 911? If you were to tell me at that time we had substantial evidence about WMDs and what bot I'd have voted in favor of it too. I'd be under the impression it'd be for the better of the nation regardless of politics. I wouldn't think Republicans would have the audacity to politicize something to that magnitude to line their pockets. If anything this video confirms that Republicans are snake oil salesmen and Dems were foolish to trust them.

Um........several clips show Democrats during the Clinton administration. The first clip is from 1998. Did you miss it?

Did Clinton advocate or start a war with Iraq? Any moron could've said the obvious about Sadaam. Doesn't mean they want to start WWIII.

No one back then was talking about war with Saddam, at the most they were talking about sanctions- it took the nutjobs in the BUsh administration to initiate the war with Iraq-

“Earlier today, I ordered America’s armed forces to strike military and security targets in Iraq. They are joined by British forces. Their mission is to attack Iraq’s nuclear, chemical and biological weapons programs and its military capacity to threaten its neighbors”
– President William Jefferson Clinton 12/16/98

It's not an advocacy of war. No one on earth liked Sadaam. Denouncing the guy isn't a justification of war. There's more thab just black and white. I've come to realize life is mostly shades of grey.
