74. Well, that's a nice rationalization there,
But your little B-ball games didn't have the kind of stakes on them that Hillary's vote did. You don't, absolutely do not, put people's lives on the line for such a dicey proposition as the IWR. You don't play politics with their lives, you don't give a person the benefit of the doubt with their lives on the line. You make the best, most intelligent and informed decision that you can because the power of life and death is in your hands as you make that vote.

Hillary instead make a cold, calculated, political decision, sending us into a war that she knew we had no business going into. She played politics with the lives of innocents.

And yes, I will always hold it against her. What I find extremely ironic is that back in '04 the idea was going around was that we should hold responsible all of those who voted for the war. But now, out of pure partisan politics, people, many of them the same ones, are willing to not hold Hillary accountable, all because she is now "their girl".:puke:
