Poor judgement?

I understand that situations change and people have a right to change their mind but he knew the risks a decade prior, the risks did not change and still he endorsed the invasion of Iraq.
In 1994 Dick Cheney sums up the issue surrounding an invasion of Iraq in 1 minute:

We need people in office with better judgment. Vote for change.

| Prop | Decision | Reason |
| A | undecided | I will probably vote “Yes” BUT it is a lot of money that will ultimately raise my rent. I don’t think that it really improves the number of beds or services or even reduces the risk of an earthquake destroying a large portion of the hospital due to the neighboring brick monstrosities that will likely fall upon it since they are not seismically stable, yet. |
| B | No | This is the wrong way to raise money for low income housing. setting asside 2.5% of the budget to a cause ties the hands of our elected officials. |
| C | Yes | Keeping the powers separated is very important. |
| D | Yes | Bring more business and tax revenue into SF! |
| E | Yes | Let’s follow state standards |
| F | Yes | Most people in SF don’t vote on odd years. This allows for voter manipulation. |
| G | No | The more I read about it, the more I think the law needs to be better written. |
| H | No | I don’t like the idea of anyone having the ability to have a blank check when putting the tax payers into debt, even if it is for a noble cause. I also wonder if SF can run power better than private industry. |
| I | Yes | We need more independent advocates to keep our costs under control. |
| J | No | It makes sense to have a single authority for building but shouldn’t preservation be weighed with other planning needs? |
| K | Yes | I don’t believe that sex workers should be prosecuted as criminals. Pimps and human traffickers on the other hand should get all that is coming to them. Does this law address this? I don’t know. |
| L | Yes | We need to fund community justice center to help keep our system fairly for people of all income. |
| M | No | I feel like there are a lot of protections for tenants already. |
| N | Yes | Encourages the installation of Solar energy systems on private residents. |
| O | Yes | My issue is really with more taxes, though it sounds like the amount of money would be the same just updates the law to include newer technologies like IP Phones, etc… So I will vote yes. |
| P | No | This is not necessary or fixes any core issues. |
| Q | Yes | It needs to be updated. |
| R | … | G. W. Bush did enough harm, do we really want anything named after him, even a sewer plant? Is this really needed? |
| S | Yes | Seems like good government. |
| T | No | Where does the money come from? I think it will just tie the hands of people who need to allocate money. |
| U | No | I truly disagree with us going into Iraq to begin with. But we are there and we can vote for Obama to get us out. | V | Yes | JROTC had been a really positive influence on many people’s lives. I just think people need a choice. |
What is your opinion?
