They didn't vote to invade. How could they? There was no resolution to invade. Republicans didn't vote to invade either.

Then show us their words that say what you claim. You can't. You're living inside your false talking point. When you feel secure enough for reality, then let us know. You're a liar.

Those quotes are great. Which one calls for a full-scale ground invasion and 10-year occupation?

How about including that quote from Hans Blix from March of 2003, saying (just before we invaded) that UN inspectors had unfettered access to all suspected weapons sites, and just needed time?

Which only means one thing they moved them, I think to syria.

Yes democrats did not call for that but they did want to be on record as being hawkish before an election.
Everybody know democrats are pussies when it comes to doing the right thing. They just talk tough

And many of those quotes refer to Saddam's PRIOR attempts to develop WMD's.

But don't expect truth or clarity from partisan hacks like WOM.

these do not speak of prior attempts.

"Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of mass destruction technology which is a threat to countries in the region and he has made a mockery of the weapons inspection process."
-Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D, CA), Dec. 16, 1998

"Hussein has ... chosen to spend his money on building weapons of mass destruction and palaces for his cronies."
-- Madeline Albright, Clinton Secretary of State, Nov. 10, 1999

Sorry, but that's in the books. It's a hard one to rewrite.

Here is a headline from CNN.....Oct 2002

Senate approves Iraq war resolution

IRAQ


October 11, 2002

In a major victory for the White House, the Senate early Friday voted 77-23 to authorize President Bush to attack Iraq if Saddam Hussein refuses to give up weapons of mass destruction as required by U.N. resolutions.
Hours earlier, the House approved an identical resolution, 296-133.
The president praised the congressional action, declaring "America speaks with one voice."
"The Congress has spoken clearly to the international community and the United Nations Security Council," Bush said in a statement. "Saddam Hussein and his outlaw regime pose a grave threat to the region, the world and the United States. Inaction is not an option, disarmament is a must."

Do you know the meaning of "war" ?.....Are Democrats utterly boneheads idiots ?
Does authorizing 'war' mean 'do not invade'....or do not kill' ....or only use airplanes'......
Do you know how many UN resolutions were passed unanimously by the UN against Iraq and Saddam...
Democrats as well as Republicans believed that he had WMD as is PROVEN by the quotes of Dem. leaders over a period of at least 5 years....continuously....
The POTUS deceided force was necessay.....

You stupidity makes it useless and a waste of time and energy to talk to you....your willful ignorance of recent history is of no concern of mine....your being a moron
doesn't reflect on me in the least.....
I present facts, you play word games......for the countrys sake, give up voting....

I think one of my favorite things about this whole history rewriting tactic is the fact that, right after Saddam's statue fell, the narrative was that Democrats were on the "wrong side of history" for opposing the invasion, and that Bush was a bold, visionary leader for making it happen.

Now, that is is regarded as one of the worst foreign policy decisions in history, there just isn't enough credit to go 'round. Why, Democrats practically spearheaded the effort to invade, and even had a resolution for it.

THIS!!!

The truth is that Democrats voted to invade. Another fact is Dems were talking about WMDs before Bush was President.

False Democrats voted to authorize invasion, if Bush wants to duck that decision... he cant its on his shoulders.
 
Wise Old Man said:
Exactly. It was obviously necessary because we invaded. Give us some names of the Dems who objected and said they didn't vote for invasion.

President Barak Hussien Obama objected and said had he been in Congress he would not have voted to give Bush authorization.
 
A headline from CNN - priceless.

How's about we look at the language of the actual resolution? You know...the "resolution to invade"?

Fortunately, the history is written on this. No amount of squawking from Bush apologists will change that.

Bush apologists have nothing to do with this. We're talking about history and you're lying about it.

I'm not lying about anything. Congress voted to give Bush authorization to use force if necessary. It wasn't a resolution to invade; that was Bush's decision.

That's like saying the framers of the Constitution voted to invade.

And it was the decision of Dems who voted for the resolution to give Bush authorization to use force if necessary. You can season it any way you like it, but it's not going to change the truth that the invasion was authorized by congress.
