I mean...his campaign being all about those hard choices and all.
When the time came to take a stand on Iran..on a vote that he claims authorized an Iranian war..he didn't show up to vote...
Troubling...

1. Please provide quote for claim that K-L authorized war with Iran. Thanks in advance.

If you are unable, a definition of "petard" or of "occam" will also suffice.

7. "Why is this amendment so dangerous? Because George Bush and Dick Cheney
could use this language to justify keeping our troops in Iraq as long as they can point to a threat from Iran. And because they could use this language to justify an attack on Iran as a part of the ongoing war in Iraq."


Yet he didn't even show up to vote.

9. That's not what I asked for. I didn't
ask for "why did Obama say that the language of this bill was bad," I asked where Obama claimed it specifically authorized war with Iran.

16. "Justify" and "authorize" are completely different words with different meanings.
OP was lying, it seems.
