(32,886 posts)Do you also condemn the entire rest of the international community who believed the same thing at the same time and wanted to do the same thing at the same time as Democrats here in the US? Put pressure on Saddam to get weapons inspectors back into the country.
If you think you have the right and ability to say that all of the above are terrible or cowardly or complicit or dumb or whatever other invective I've seen hurled at Democrats for voting 'Yes' on the IWR vote, then your position starts to make sense. But to do that, of course, is pretty arrogant to the point of being insanely so. And for that reason, no one I have said that to has come back at me with "Well, yes Steve, I was smarter and had better information than all the world international community".
If you can't say that, you have no point in trying to criticize Democrats for this. It's a position that makes no sense at all.
