38. If you read Obama's speech
in no fashion do you get the sense that his position differed from Hillary's at that point --and there is no reason to think from his speech that he would have voted NO on IWR.

Why?

IWR was not a vote for preemptive War.

Bush broke the trust implicit in the resolution.

Hillary's 'mistake' was in trusting Bush, but she's not alone in having had that trust.
