(32,886 posts)I campaigned for Gore, I fought the election theft, I marched in peace marches in 2003 before the war and after. I did everything short of unlawful measures to stop the war. But I still payed taxes and I did not emigrate.
I believe though that only two organizations are truly guilty here and that is the Bush administration and the Blair administration. The latter makes me really sad because outside of the Iraq war, I really liked Tony Blair.
Bush was determined to go to war and nothing would have stopped him. He had a Republican House of Representatives that would not have impeached him nor would it have ever contemplated a Boland like amendment. But of course, we see with Reagan how much a Boland amendment means. It means nothing unless congress is willing to impeach the President over breaching it.
