Reply #20: OK... [View All]

OK just read the resolution in a PDF file for the first time. My first reaction was "whoah!." It talked about the Iranian millitary supplying the insurgency in Iraq, which to me is a debatable point, praised Petraeus in much the same way that the Republican leadership does and used his words as gospel and just sounded like the very essence of neocon talking points.

As far as she voted for it to cool things down, kind of like how she voted for the Iraq AUMF thinking that it would just lead to inspectors being forced back in.........

I really try to like her, I really do, but this doesn't help. I also remember how she was a vocal supporter of the Iraq war until after Jack Murtha stood up against it so passionately and probably tilted the congressional majority towards us in doing so.
