>The bill was passed without congressional approval, and allows the US to deploy military forces in Uganda, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the Central African Republic and South Sudan (at the consent of those nations) in pursuit of LRA rebels.<

How on earth does a bill get passed without House approval???

How on earth is this happening during an election year in the US when the economy is faltering? Shouldn't we be minding our own house first?

The LRA in the FY2013 Defense Budget Hearings
6 days ago

On February 29 and March 1, 2012 the National Defense Authorization Budget was put before the House and Senate Armed Services Committees with AFRICOM Commander Gen. Carter Ham as well as the House Committee on Foreign Affairs with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for review and questioning.

The Lord’s Resistance Army came up several times and both Gen. Ham and Secretary Clinton defended the measures that allocated funding to counter-LRA efforts.
