well, ake, I explained what I meant ...but once more.. Bush said he HAD good evidence Saddam had WMDs and plans to use them...Kerry's vote said, in essence, "ok...if that is true, then I'll give you the $87 billion in the name of peace, stability and a united front".....then later, when that 'evidence' began to look mighty suspicious, vote #2 said "hold on...this is getting awkward, and I now withdraw what little confidence I had in this war." That means, "I'll give you $$$ to see what you can prove *contingent* on some results."

Results? Iraq with a devastated infrastructure, a bunch of Muslims that hate our guts enough to kill each other while killing us, NO WMDs, no oil for the forseeable future...and no reasonable way to stay IN and reasonable way to get OUT. If I were running for president, I'd sure like to have both of Kerry's votes on record..."I tried to support the administration when it claimed to know what it was doing, but I sure didn't continue to support it when the shit hit the fan!"
