    You're in over your head on this one w/ me, Alias.

    How so? You said Democrats "voted to invade." That was your backup?

    Really?

    I can read, Alias. Apparently, you're not able to. That's unfortunate.

    Did you read my link? Do you need to play word games to make your point? Congress voted to invade Iraq. Idiot.

    Um, no - actually, they didn't.

    How embarassing this must be for you. They did not vote to "invade Iraq." What a silly thing to say.

    Democrats in the House and Senate voted for this:

    Resolution Authorizes Use of Military Forces in Iraq
    Specifically, the resolution authorizes President Bush to:
    •use the Armed Forces of the United States as he determines to be necessary and appropriate in order to--
    (1) defend the national security of the United States against the continuing threat posed by Iraq; and

    (2) enforce all relevant United Nations Security Council resolutions regarding Iraq.

    What's even funnier is that when Bush & Cheney DID make the decision to invade (which, according to Dick Armey, broke their promise to Congress), most on the right said that Dems were on the "wrong side of history" for opposing the decision.

    Now, of course, it's all, "The Dems voted to invade! They forced Bush to do it!"

    You guys always lie about history. It's all you have.

    Clearly, you have no idea whatsoever how the Iraq War came about. Have you read anything at all about it?

    You don't want to accept the fact that Democrats in the House and the Senate voted for the invasion so you want to play word games. That's fine. You're only fooling yourself. LOL.

    It's not "word games." It wasn't a "resolution to invade." Period.

    Sorry 'bout that. I know you guys hate for Bush or Cheney to have any accountability whatsoever.
