Most of the Democrats in Congress voted for the war. It doesn't matter what they said. After the invasion, no WMDs were found.
Hold on though. You claimed this was all made up by Bush. These Democrats (PRESIDENT) were claiming this BEFORE Bush. Why are you dancing around that? Your party is responsible for this too. Your President (Clinton- husband of the woman you voted for. That woman ALSO voted for it) wanted this was in the 90's.
The "anti-lobbyist, anti-revolving-door Obama White House" thing was just another Big Lie. The suckers lapped it up. “Lobbyist can offer, in other words, an implicit preemptive payoff to powerful government officials. It happens not only on the Hill but in the boastfully anti-lobbyist, anti-revolving-door Obama White House. Scores of administration officials had by 2010 left the administration for K Street jobs without anyone so much as pointing out that they were defying a ***central tenet*** of the Obama political enterprise.” … “There's a payoff," Hess [Stephen Hess Brookings Institution] concluded using the word “payoff” with no apparent wryness.” Mark Leibovich, This Town, Penguin Books, 2013, pp. 163,164.

No ... Powell was being enthusiastically begged to run for POTUS sometime in the mid - 2000's.Maybe 2004.But then that would have meant taking on Bush 43 for the nomination.But I distinctly remember Powell being pushed to run.As if the Presidency was his for the asking.He would have been The first Black President.Powell is a strange sort.He acts like he's a dedicated true believer in Republicanism but also wants to separate hisself from the normal conservatives like the NeoCons { Paul Wolfowitz types }. I think guys like Bill Bennett and William Kristol would have made it easy for Powell to run.Except Powell was No NeoCon.He had his Powell Doctrine,after all.
