Inconsistencies of position on the war with Iraq based on political motivation pure and simple. I don't believe they made those statements because they believed them at the time, I believe they made them because at that moment in time it was the politically correct thing to do for themselves and the democratic party.

I think Pat is absolutely correct. The Democrats have proven themselves to be, by and large, spineless twerps. Doesn't change the fact that this was empty saber-rattling based on poor intelligence. Whoopty-doo...
