Pat Buchanan uses a resolution by centrist Congressman Walter Jones (R-NC) to launch a subtle attack on Presidential hopeful Democratic Senators (Biden, Clinton, Kerry and Edwards are named). The resolution has been referred to the House Committee on Foreign Affairs and enjoyed 11 bi-partisan co-sponsors (including Dennis Kusinich, D-OH). Buchanan masterfully uses this mea culpa by Jones who has publicly voiced his regret for voting to give the President authority to go into Iraq, in an obvious attempt to smear blame for the war on the Democrats. He sets up a straw dog: “If Biden, Kerry, Clinton and Barack Obama refuse to sign on to the Jones resolution, they will be silently conceding that Bush indeed does have the power to start a war on Iran. And America should pay no further attention to the Democrats' wailing about being misled on the Iraq war” (naming another democratic presidential candidate, Obama). This is classic partisanship from Pat Buchanan and will likely be lapped up like warm milk by those on the right.
