Robert Byrd speaking now...
"The longer questions are allowed to fester, the greater the risk that the American people will lose confidence in their government. Many of my colleagues here were willing to trust the administration and vote for the war against Iraq. Trusted so much they gave the president sweeping authority to commit war. Despite my opposition, the Senate voted to blindly trust the president with unprecedented power to declare war. I have witnessed deceit, coverup...they misled the people."
I'll look for the transcript later.
Wow.
