Good on ya for finding that link to check your facts. Yes, it's ticked up a bit, but we've a long way to go to reach "high".

And yes, Congress has some blame in this whole middle east bullshit we're in now. They didn't have the balls to call out the Bush administrations bullshit about weapons of mass destruction, Iraq being involved in 9/11 and so on.

They're to blame for plenty of domestic issues, too.

The Congress was duped into believing that Iraq was a huge threat to our national and international security, and due to immense fear (that the Bush administration was spewing out to us all around the clock, along with the so called "liberal" media) they acted haistaly and gave the president all but total authority.

Did the Bush admin fluff things up a bit? Probably, however Congress had access to
plenty of intelligence. You'd better go back and look at some of the speeches made to Congress by Kerry and Clinton in particular, my friend. Hindsight is
always 20/20 with these clowns, although I must give McCain credit for admitting he's been wrong-headed on some issues.
