But the question was KNOWING ALL WE KNOW NOW.

If he knew there WMDs, and still voted for the authorization knowing Bush was going to go in, that means he must support war even without the WMDs.

The question Bush asked, to which Kerry said he would still have voted for the authorization.

Sorry, it wasn't clear

2. I'm sick of the anti-Kerry folks making these same tired arguments.  Bush is president, not Kerry.  Kerry will take the action he deems appropriate when he is president.  Not all action entails all out war.  Nor is war necessarily the most effective action.  As far as voting to allow war, again there is a vast difference between that up or down vote and actually making the final decision to start a war.  I disagree with Kerry's decision to vote yes, but giving the president the ability to wage war against Saddam can be defended, even if you, in the end, believe war was unnecessary as the scenario unfolded.

He said he would have authorized the war, even now that he knows there are WMDs and that Bush is a liar or whatever who wanted oil.

If you think Bush abused the power, why would you vote to give it to him again? It makes no sense whatsoever.

They always try that. It's like saying Christians hate homosexuals because they're anti-homosexuality.

Anyway, I wouldn't count on Hussein becoming a born again Christian.

I thought you'd set him back on the throne.

I agree 100%. I'm just saying, you can be 99.99999% sure that he's not converting.

Perhaps it was an attempt to reach out to swing voters?... Wink

We can forgive mass murderers if they stop being mass murderers, and we can forgive gays if they quit the lifestyle.

I'm okay with abolishing the death penalty, not because I'm worried about the mass murderers, but because I'm worried about the people who are later proven innocent.

I didn't even know Illinois had the death penalty.

Mass murderers are worthy of blame for being who they are?
