103. The "truth" is that they acted like the opportunistic politicians they are
Get over it. The ones who voted FOR the war do not deserve the support or the votes of those against the war and occupation.

If you can rationalize their obvious collaboration with the other war crimimals that launched the invasion, have at it.

"They too trot out the authorization vote..". With good reason. Because a number of alleged progressives supported, and still support, the occupation.

As for insulting the "citizens who also believed" - tough. They deserve to be insulted for backing an obvious act of military aggression against a non-threatening sovereign country that killed tens of thousands of people.

You can call what you are rationalizing "the truth" or you can call it strawberry ice cream. Don't make it so.
