"On the Iraq war: Democrats were opposed 126-82, Republicans in favor 215-6. If Democrats had controlled congress, it would never have happened."
Funny how vocally and vociferously "opposed" the Democrats were when they were running for re-election. Funny how after they won their elections, you barely heard a peep from the Democrats on how "opposed" to the wars they are.
And in practice, after gaining a majority in both houses in Congress and winning the White House the Democrats decided to end the Iraq war a mere 3 years later, not to mention continuing the pointless war in Afghanistan, the longest war in US history, even after getting Bin Laden over in Pakistan.
The only thing the Democrats are really opposed to, is losing an election.
