Reply #64: I wasn't suggesting that at all...

I said, that it didn't matter how they voted. If they had all voted NO, Bush was going in regardless. Even Paul O'neill stated that. Bush told them to "find a way", and they found it. 9-11, unfortunately, to paraphrase from Cheney's Law, was "a moment of opportunity, meeting preparation". I choose to blame Bush & Co. Not congress. I read their arguments, and I haven't changed my mind. My decision to forgive congress for the mistake is firm. Time to move on. I just don't hold a grudge over things I can not change. I'm a Sag, so it's in my nature to get really mad, then forgive. Not forget, but forgive. Dwelling on the past is counter productive. It does no one any good.

You believe what you will. It was not my intention to try and change your mind, only to ask that you be fair when stating that "they should have known better". A few apparently did, but most did not. And I gotta be honest with you, it's just not an issue for me in this election. I think there are more important things to change, and fix, than to dwell on the past.
