1. I hear people make these statements, both here and on the...

...street. Most are willing to give both Kerry and Edwards a pass on this in any case. America had been hit; we hit back. The targeting was off but there is no way that either Kerry or Edwards could have voted "no" without being consigned to the dustbins of history forever.

2. and if they voted against, the GOP would hammer us for cowering

to the terrorists. Whatever the vote, the GOP would twist it. I was unhappy with the vote too but the complete and utter mismanagement of the occupation should be a campaign issue. The lawlessness, abuse, greed in Iraq is atrocious and Bush's appointments are responsible for all of these actions. The must be held accountable.
