What you fail to understand is that a vote for the authority to go to war, does not mean a vote for war. Kerry has explained that Bush should've given the weapon inspectors more time to do the job and have the UN pass another resolution, not just start a preemptive strike on Iraq.

For nearly 2 years I've asked for anyone to come up with a quote from President Bush stating Iraq was an eminent threat. So far not one single quote has been given, NOT ONE SINGLE QUOTE, nowhere has anybody been able to come up and say President Bush said Iraq was and EMINENT THREAT. So now I ask you, Gab directly, produce a quote where President Bush said before the war thet Iraq was an Eminent threat?

Show me I have no fear of being wrong, if I am, I am I'll drop the defense of President Bush not saying there was an Eminent Threat from Iraq so fast the resulting vaccum from My movement will SUCK the Greymatter our of anybodies head standing nearby.
[/QUOTE]Your in luck Harris, it turns out I was slightly mistaken. Bush said (regarding Saddam and Iraq) in his 2003 State of Union speech: "Some say we must not act until the threat is immenent. Since when have terrorists and tryants have anounced their intenions, polietly putting us on notice before they strike?"

So Bush didn't exactly say that Iraq was an imminent threat, but gave the impression that it would be if the United States didn't quickly take action. Either way, Bush still mislead us into this war. The artillery shells you described are not WMDs and not good enough proof that Saddam posed a threat to America.
