True...but what percentage of the Democrats voted 'no'? What percentage of the Republicans voted 'no'?
doesn't matter. how many republicans voted for the disaster called obamacare?
the point is that both parties voted to authorize and fund the fiasco called the iraq war. It was a stupid waste of money and lives, both parties are responsible. Bush did not dream it up, did not lie about it, and did not do it on his own.
The only way we will ever learn from history is to tell the truth about it. Dump the partisan bullshit and deal with reality.
President bush was given sole authority to choose to use US Forces...it was GIVEN to him by congress....they, Congress, gave up their constitutional authority to declare war, and handed it to ONE MAN, the President....
the Iraq Resolution, gave the President and only the President, the authority to use US Forces, if certain criteria was met.
and yes, I agree that they did fund the President's decision....
