But those commercial logistics, sustainment and basing contracts for deployed forces are really lucrative. Can't get in the way of those. Oh and the aid and civil reconstruction contracts... and on and on and on.

With so much effort to fix the world, how come it's still so screwed up?

Blackman makes good arguments.

This non-binding, for the camera/MSM, vote was intended to embarrass the president and, as usual, repubs fell for it.

Repubs like to virtue signal too.

is simply political posturing designed to allow them to go tell their voters that they bravely defied the President

Stop deluding yourself with this off-point analysis. It's about the graft - the skim off the taxpayers dollars being recirculated back to the greater DC metropolitan area. Stop looking for some other principle or explanation. There is none. It's the money folks. It's everyone getting his piece of the taxpayer funded action. Nothing more.

My soon to be former Congressman Jody Hice (GA-10th) voted Present.

Wow, I am so glad he showed up to work yesterday. I sent him a scathing email on how he was elected to be my voice and all I get if a gold star for showing up to work that day.

Jody Hice also LOVES H1-B Visas.

political will, something that is always in short supply among Republican members of congress

More of this nonsense, Mr. Blackman. Stop trying to make it about a difference of principle. There is no principle. It's about the DC gravy train.

That would be my analysis if this were a BINDING vote. On a non-biding vote like this one, it is just political posturing.

You should learn how to disagree without being insulting.

This tells me that there are a whole lot of quisling congress critters on the take and collecting lot’s of money in kickbacks and bribes from the Military Industrial Complex.

I want to know which politicians have been lining their pockets by bribes, donations, and fraudulent connections from foreign powers and corporations, especially RINOs

Send the 129-member delegation to Kentucky to inspect damage inflicted in the bombing attack broadcast by ABC.

Then, pack the rascals up and send them on a congressional junket to the border between Turkey and Syria.

That would be a dumb move considering how we are positioned to retake the house. This was a meaningless ‘feeling’ vote. Don’t cut your throat over it.

I presume Democrats voted like lemmings.

Where are the anti-war groups who used to be so vocal?

It wouldn’t change their minds. They are bought and paid for.
