I wouldn't go that far. About half the Democratic Senators did vote against the war. A majority of Democratic Representatives voted against it. The ones who voted for it certainly can't complain, but this was a Republican idea.

I still would rather pay pork domestically than throw money into a war against a country that was of no threat to us and that we didn't gain anything from.
