| Why Don't Most Folks Feel That Voting For The Iraq War Is A Candidate-Killer? |
|
The Iraq War was started despite zero credible evidence that Iraq was going to attack us, and zero credible evidence that Iraq had WMD. It was the single most important vote in decades; it was a pretty simple to determine the correct way to vote; and most Congressional Democrats made the correct choice by voting against war.
Seems to me that those who voted FOR war showed a shattering lack of intelligence and/or good sense. An incredible loss of blood and treasure has been the result. Why should these folke even be re-elected to Congress, let alone elevated to the Presidency?
Is this nation really so jaded that we've lost all sense of accountability? If so, then I deeply fear for us.
