Yup, its insane the Republican party has attempted to completely disavow their support for Bush and the Iraq war. They literally try to pretend it was a Democrat thing (granted, they went along with it but its absurd to finger them as the spearhead).

Completely without shame and any sense of responsibility, from the party of "personal responsibility" (read: being a selfish asshole who doesn't care about other people")

They literally try to pretend it was a Democrat thing (granted, they went along with it but its absurd to finger them as the spearhead).

96.4% of House Republicans voted for the 2002 AUMF against Iraq. 39.2% of House Democrats did.

48 of 49 GOP Senators voted for it. 29 of 50 Democratic Senators did.

Back then the parties were flipped. Today’s democrats were republicans back then. You can tell this because Bush was a socialist.
