80. You miss the point entirely - B-L was not much different than the IWR
Edited on Mon Mar-13-06 08:17 PM by blm
version that passed, and in fact, both Kerry and Dean were FOR Biden-Lugar as the preferred version.

Why pretend that Biden-Lugar was so significantly different than IWR, mf? You know it wasn't, and luckily for Dean the media didn't pick up on his prior position until the Iowa debate where Gephardt asked him about it.

But the basic point is that Dean's Biden-Lugar support was not pro-war and neither was IWR pro-war - Bush was in VIOLATION of the IWR when he went to war after weapons inspections proved military force was unnecessary.
