If the United States Senate passes a resolution, non-binding or otherwise, that criticizes the commitment of additional troops to Iraq that General Petraeus has asked for and that the president has pledged, and if the Senate does so after the testimony of General Petraeus on January 23 that such a resolution will be an encouragement to the enemy, I will not contribute to any Republican senator who voted for the resolution. Further, if any Republican senator who votes for such a resolution is a candidate for re-election in 2008, I will not contribute to the National Republican Senatorial Committee unless the Chairman of that Committee, Senator Ensign, commits in writing that none of the funds of the NRSC will go to support the re-election of any senator supporting the non-binding resolution.

Congress is stepping on the COnstitution even with a non-binding resolution. If this idiocy passes, aid and comfort is going to be an understatement. I wish we had more power than that. I wish there was something more we could do then just not donate to their campaigns and vote against them. Like public censure. Get a few million signatures condemning it and accusing them of knowingly aiding the enemy and actively demoralizing our troops. Like saying such activity is teasonous.
