Speaking of Nelson Mandela...

Nelson Mandela, January, 2003:

"What I am condemning is that one power, with a president who has no foresight, who cannot think properly, is now wanting to plunge the world into a holocaust."

Which is funny, because just a few months before he said that, the U.S. Congress passed the Joint Resolution to Authorize the Use of United States Armed Forces Against Iraq. Giving Bush the power to invade Iraq at will. I guess Senators Clinton, Dodd, Edwards, and Biden just didn't see it the way Mandela did.
