As Senator Kennedy has been eulogized in recent days, few have noted
what Senator Kennedy himself said was his most important vote in all
his years in the Senate: his vote against the U.S. invasion of Iraq.
Dean Baker notes that when the political and media establishments were
in war fever, Senator Kennedy looked at the evidence, and found it
wanting. Next month Congress will consider plans to "double down" the
war in Afghanistan. Which Senators will emulate Senator Kennedy's
"most important vote"?
