"I am not a lawyer and am confused...It appears to me that Rep are voting for the Murtha resolution...and Rats are not... Someone please clear this up.."
I believe at this point they are voting on a procedural motion on whether or not to vote on the resolution. The Reps want a vote -- so they can vote against the Murtha resolution -- while the Rats want to avoid taking a public stand. Therefore the Reps are voting to have the vote while the Rats are voting against having the vote.
Okay. Thanks.
Now who are the five Republicans who are voting on the Dem side?
I want names NOW.
