47. I would hate to argue with a fellow Hoosier
So I will not. There is plenty of blame to go around.

I just finished Dean's book "Worse than Watergate" It is very obvious that Congress was steamrolled with the war resolution. Should Democrats have gone along with the initial resolution? No, but it was NOT a resolution to go immediately to war. In essence they trusted Bush to do as instructed. Republicans will say he did, hell Joe Lieberman may say he did. I do not and there is plenty of room for that statement. As far as the Patriot Act, it was to be a limited time special powers bill, one that probably was not needed. I am also certain it has been used not the way it should have been. It was a reaction to the attacks, a bad reaction.

I will not make any more excuses. What I do know is Bush must be stopped and apparently Kerry is the only other choice. I hope and pray Ralph sees that this time.
