Who Supports the War(s)

But you already have a vote in the house - and you've had it for a while.

And listen, the Democrats may have controlled the agenda in the last Senate session, but that doesn't mean the agenda was full of left-wing bills. What got passed? Tax cuts? Patriot act? Homeland Security may have stalled, but that's Bush's fault (co-opted Lieberman's idea, twisted it, and sent it back as something no Dem that wants to be elected can vote for). Right wing judges have been stopped, but at nothing like the rate of left and center-left judges from Clinton that never got a chance. So lots of things that are remotely right-wing have hit the floor, and gotten a vote. Resolution on Iraq anyone?

It's nice to see someone from the right admit that Bush became President through a technicality. I'm not one of the people who are constantly up in arms about the whole situation, but I do think it's funny to hear you admit to it. However, Jeffords was driven out by Bush as much as he was welcomed by Daschle and Dodd.

Finally, those articles you sent were about Iraq - but not about Iraq and OKC. And Stephen Hayes's credentials - he's a smart guy, but he has an agenda. The Weekly Standard is one of the largest conservative weeklies, and he is one of the editors. I'm not discounting the work - I just think you have to remember the writer's bias. Same thing whether it's from the Nation or the National Review, etc.
