"The IWR vote was what put the inspectors back into Iraq."

No. Iraq agreed to return of the inspectors BEFORE the IWR Vote (http://archives.cnn.com/2002/WORLD/meast/09/16/iraq.un.letter/index.html)


'There may have been some contradictory evidence *at the time of the vote* that some of the Congress may or may not have been privy to"

SOME? Scott Ritter, a previous weapons inspector, went public in September of 2002 stating unequivocally that there were NO WMD'S in Iraq. There was TONS of evidence that unless he a different source of WMD, anything we sold him in the 80's would have long since DEGRADED, especially under conditions he could have kept them.


However, even if everything you claimed was true, it doesn't explain the NO vote on the Levin Amendment, which would have required bush to come back to congress BEFORE committing troops.
