Both the New York Post and the Washington Post have items today disputing Bill Clinton’s claim to have opposed the Iraq war from the beginning. The former published an editorial with quotes showing that Clinton may have objected to the timing of the invasion, but did not oppose the policy.

Antiwar conservative blogger Dan Flynn is peeved.
