He did repent, though.
Jones was initially a strong supporter of the conflict in Iraq, but then became one of the leading Republicans opposed to continued involvement in Iraq.[47] Jones became well known for leading the effort, along with GOP Rep. Bob Ney, to have french fries renamed "freedom fries" on House cafeteria menus as a protest against French opposition to the 2003 invasion of Iraq.[48] Jones later modified his stance on the war to a considerable extent. In 2005, he stated that he had come to believe that there had been little reason to go to war, despite his earlier support, which had been based upon selective intelligence supplied to Congress. He said of his previous position on the fries, "I wish it had never happened."[49] In July 2006, the names were quietly changed back.[50]

On March 17, 2005, he sponsored a bill endorsing the conduct of his Camp Lejeune constituent, controversial Marine Corps Lieutenant Ilario Pantano, who faced charges (subsequently dropped) for having shot two Iraqis (allegedly unarmed civilians) on April 15, 2004.[51]

Jones called on President George W. Bush to apologize for misinforming Congress to win authorization for the war. Jones said, "If I had known then what I know today, I wouldn't have voted for that resolution."[52]

Jones contended that the United States went to war "with no justification."[4][49] On the subject, he said, "I just feel that the reason of going in for weapons of mass destruction, the ability of the Iraqis to make a nuclear weapon, that's all been proven that it was never there." He added that his change of opinion came about from attending the funeral of a sergeant killed in Iraq, when his last letter to his family was being read out. On June 16, 2005, he joined with three other members of Congress (Neil Abercrombie, Dennis Kucinich and Ron Paul) in introducing a resolution calling for the start of a withdrawal of U.S. forces from Iraq to begin by October 2006.[53] Jones covered the hallway outside his office with photographs of soldiers who had died in Iraq.[4] He said, "If we were given misinformation intentionally by people in this administration, to commit the authority to send boys, and in some instances girls, to go into Iraq, that is wrong. Congress must be told the truth."[4]
Sad.

Not a good year for the Southern Baptist either. Who would have thought, child abuse isn't just a Catholic thing.

Well aren’t I just sad.
SJWs are a natural consequence of corporatism.

yeah do they think this is mocking the President?
Official site of the parade and the comments by the artist behind the Trump-Emperor of Mankind meme float (slightly below center of page):

Hard to determine if the artist means it as mockery or praise. Could be neither and both.
Personally, I don't care, it was AWESOME. To have something we've joked about for over 2 years represented by an artist is pretty fun.
They put it into paper mache, something like it was drawn a while back...the sword is different if you didn't notice the twitter birds on the paper mache version.
