How does Barack Obama know whether or not he would have voted for the war? Hind sight is 20/20. It's easy to say what you wouldn't do when you aren't in that situation.

I think every politician is a hypocrite, but he's not for that specific event. He's in a fortunate situation in which he didn't have to vote on the war, and he's exploiting that. I'm personally surprised none of his opponents have called him on that.

he is a hyporcrite, just like most the democrats on this. In 1992 the democrats were bashing Bush dad for not removing Saddam from power after the gulf war. there is a video on youtube were Gore complains for several minutes about how Bush father is ignoring Saddam terrorist ties.
Why were the demos for removing power from Saddam then, and saying he was helping terrorsts then, when Bush dad said to leave Saddam in for the stability of the iraq, but now say the exact opposite.
All politicians lie, they expect people to forget what they said before. None of them are saints.

His wife is on the board of the directors for the Chicago chapter of the Council on Foreign Relations. Trust me, he's not an innocent politician and he's traitorous.
