80. Speaking of "thick"
1) Bush is the criminal - he ignored/manipulated the law to suit his agenda

Wrong. He followed the letter of the law and upheld it's one condition. The law allowed him to attack Iraq based only on "his determination".

2) Not one Dem voted to invade Iraq - they voted to compel Saddam to adhere to UN resolutions

Wrong. You can't use the word "compel" because Congress only "supported the efforts" of the President to enforce relevant UN resolutions.
There was nothing in the law to compel Saddam to do anything.

Read the freakin bill sometime.
