119. When the USSC placed Bush in power....
there was not much democrats could do to stop him.

If you read the speeches of those that voted against the IWR, such as that of Paul Wellstone, you will see that a majority of good people truly did not know if Obama had WMDs or not.

Paul Wellstone thought he had them, he merely questioned the urgency.

I support ridding Iraq of weapons of mass destruction through unfettered U.N. inspections, which should begin as soon as possible.

Democrats were left to attempt to negotiate through the verbiage of what republicans would soon pass, trying to add clauses attempting to thwart the Bush juggernaut.
