Who are the only declared 2016 Presidential candidates who voted in favor of the war authorization in Iraq?
Which candidates were in congress 13 years ago? All of them except Sanders.
I won't vote for Hillary, because she was either too stupid to see through the obvious lies or was too cowardly to do the right thing. Either one is a disqualifier. But the false equivalency here between Bush and any member of Congress (Dem or Repub) is ridiculous.
Another quiz:
What currently declared candidates would you trust to not make a foreign policy blunder on par with the war in Iraq?

Agreed. I would add Sanders to this list.Almost all of them, including Hillary, are hawkish. The only exception that immediately comes to mind is Rand Paul. How many years have we been meddling in the ME and it's not any better now than it was when we started, in fact it is worse. I doubt any of them would have invaded Iraq like Bush did but frankly I don't trust any of them, outside of Paul, to not have us neck deep in Iran or Syria before it's all said and done.
I meant, all the ones in congress except Sanders voted for it.In fact, the following declared GOP candidates, were NOT in Congress:
Only Graham and Sanotrum voted for the use of force authorization, along with Hillary, of course.
- Ted Cruz
- Rand Paul
- Ben Carson
- Carly Fiorina
- Mike Huckabee
- George Pataki
- Marco Rubio
Also, Bernie Sanders WAS in Congress, and voted against.
HA! HA! - Probably just one phone call from Sidney B. over to Mother Jones did the trick.I wonder how long it took the Clintons to find that essay. Mayor Carcetti from Baltimore better watch his back.
