Question for former President Clinton, et.al.
I have read and heard both you and Sen. Clinton declare that because Barack Obama voted, the same as Sen. Clinton, to continue to fund and support the troops when he came to the U.S. Senate, that means he has supported the war....that his opposition to the war has not been consistent. If we are to accept your position, does it not follow that Sen. Clinton has not been opposed to the war until very recently? That every vote she has cast to initiate and then continue the funding has also been in support of the war in Iraq?
On Meet the Press, Sen. Clinton said she has always opposed pre-emptive war, yet she voted to continue funding it. Seems to me, you can maintain that Sen. Obama has supported the war only if you agree that Sen. Clinton has consistently shown support for the war as well.
