13. There were 23 Senators
who voted against the resolution and well over a hundred Congress-persons. They would not vote to give this shameful "blank check" to Bush and none of the Dems who voted for it should get any kind of "free pass" for facilitating and empowering Bush and his neo-cons. Senator Byrd worked tirelessly to convince his fellow Dems not to vote for that dispicable resolution, but they laughed at him and ridiculed his "read" of the politics of the situation. Now, they realize that Byrd and the others were right, so they want a pass on their "mistake". No fucking way.
