t r u t h o u t - Rep. Norm Dicks Sees War Vote as Mistake

First a democrat hawk now even a republican hawk wakes up and smells the putrifying rat of Bush's war.

t r u t h o u t - Rep. Norm Dicks Sees War Vote as Mistake: "Dicks thought Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction and wouldn't hesitate to use them against the United States.

After visiting Iraq early in the war, 'Norm told me the Iraqis were going to be throwing petals at American troops,' Murtha said in an interview this week.

Dicks now says it was all a mistake - his vote, the invasion, and the way the United States is waging the war.

While he disagrees with Murtha's conclusion that US troops should be withdrawn within six months, Dicks said, 'He may well be right if this insurgency goes much further.'"
