119. It's very disturbing...
...watching DEMOCRATS try to justify the 'war resolution' because 29 Dem senators voted for it. But seldom do we debate the reasons why 21 Dem senators voted against it. I guess THEY must have actually READ the resolution before casting their votes.

- The Resolution had so many 'loopholes' that it's impossible to believe that any representative could have thought that Bush* wouldn't have taken advantage of them. Did any of the 29 actually believe that Bush* would cooperate with the UN after calling it 'irrelevant'?

- And we saw NO protests from the 29 who voted for it after Bush* broke his 'promise' to use war as a last resort. Instead...they told us 'we must support the president*' in a 'time of war'. But it wasn't a war...it was an attack on country that posed no threat to us. Everyone knew this. Everyone.

- Democrats look like hypocrites as they defend the indefensible.
