"House Republicans linked the war to the Sept. 11 attacks, the war on terrorism and to what they view as the Clinton administration's repeated failures to act after terrorist attacks in the 1990s."
Oh...we're back to that again.
What's instructive about the House vote yesterday is not so much that it passed, because you kind of figured it would, but to this old bullshit above. No mention of the "you broke it, you bought it". No mention of the moral problem of destroying a country and that it might not be right to leave it for the dogs to tear it to pieces. The Republicans want you to believe in WMDs. They sure as hell do, or at least want you to believe they do.
But here's the rub: They are in opposition to the will of the people. Isn't it bad enough that they continue to turn a blind eye to shady doings of their colleagues, flout the will of the people at every turn? Now they want to pretend that they haven't been called out on their bullshit. Maybe they haven't been...
I'll tell you who wants this sinkhole to keep sucking: Halliburton et al. They are the ones who voted yesterday, afterall.
