"..he voted to continue funding it, didn't he?"

I wish folks would quit making a vote necessarily mean "in favor of"
If Obama & others felt like, once IN a conflict, even though opposed to it, they had to keep funding the troops, it is unfair to then paint them as "voting for war"!

Now we have a situation where the Bushites argue that 'if the war is going badly, we MUST stick it out and stay there'....but if the war 'is going well, and things are getting better, we might as well stay there!'

Right...does "tiger by the tail" ring any bells?

I'm glad to see the point made that Obama merely said that he would take appropriate action IF a known military target was identified....NOT that he would "attack Pakistan".
