Unfortunately I assume you refuse to understand the difference between someone voting for WAR. Versus someone voting to protect the manufacturer of a legal product who sold it to a legal vendor who then sold it to a legal purchaser who then went out and did something illegal.

ordered the invasion of Iraq. 80 people a day dies from gun violence and we don't have congressional members who is able to realize action is needed to curtail gun violence. When is the realization Bush acted to invade Iraq, read the IWR to see the details, never was Bush authorized to invade before the inspection for WMD'S was completed.
