The number one complaint against Hillary has been her IWV
Yet, amazingly, with the one exception of Dennis K, ALL of the male presidential candidates, who were able to vote, voted same as Hillary: Edwards, Biden and Dodd. Even Kerry during 2004 voted for same bill. Obama’s vote, of course, does not count because he was not allowed to vote.
So, Gloria Steinam has recently pointed out that there is an obvious double standard. None of the men were ever viciously attacked like Hillary for this. Certainly not Edwards or even Kerry.
Secondly, as Hillary has repeatedly explained, CONGRESS NEVER EVEN AUTHORIZED THE IRAQ WAR! Congress only voted to give Bush authority to use force against Saddan Hussien, using more inspections and diplomacy, never to start a war against Iraq. Bush simply misused power just like he has always done since then.
Thirdly, as we all know, Congress was repeatedly lied to many times by Bush Adm. for reasons to vote for the bill: That there were WMD, that Saddan H. was involved with 9/11 and so on. So if that’s the major complaint against Hillary, it is indeed incredibly weak.
