Since this is primarily a poker site. Yes I have become a successful poker player by reading other people.

In WWII the minority Republican congress complained bitterly about how the war was handled. My argument is not a Democrat vs. Republican issue. It is an issue of who is in power and who is not. Those not in power in this country want to be in power and will stop at nothing to "monday morning quarterback" every decision the sitting president makes. Both parties are guilty of this. Just look at how the Republicans attacked Clinton for 8 years.

As for the "illegal war" comment. This term was also incorrectly applied in Vietnam. If the war was illegal then congress needs to step up and make a decisive vote. Congress has been weak since the end of WWII. They havent made a decisive vote for or against any military action since WWII. Sure they have their votes of confidence and issue their displeasure, but they always fall short of being decisive. Both parties in congress are more concerned with continuing their political career than making a stand for or aginst the Iraqi war.
