How American!

[rhombus]

Yeah that really helps with the diplomacy front. Good idea, send our people in with nothing to bargain with. That should guarantee military action!

[Tallguy]

I don't think even Ruth Bader Ginsburg would go for that one (tying the president's hands before the fact).

[AU72]

This would be the most irresponsible piece of legislation I remember seeing.

Might as well negotiate terms of surrender for Iraq and kiss off the Middle East now.

[mainepatsfan]

Well hell why limit it to just Iran?

[savedbygrace]

Webb proves that "once a Marine, always a Marine" is no longer true.

Way to go VA... you sure made a statement in November.

And thats about as far as that goes...

[TommyDale]

Of course, Webb is willing to assume all responsibility for a nuclear attack by Iran, right?

[NeoCaveman]

Pre-emptive surrender.

The Virginia election was stolen at the last minute. Allen led the entire night - from 1% reporting to 98% reporting - with many heavily blue areas holding out. The last 2% reporting came in hours late (probably after some back-of-the-envelope calculations on how many votes they needed to manufacture) and were all at least 70-30 for Webb. I would guess the average spread of the last 2% was 80-20 for Webb. Coincidence?

Thank you for staying home and punishing the President.......you know who you are!!!!!!!!!!!

Boland amendment-Part II

Bush better not be stupid enough to sign it.

[OldFriend]

No coincidence. Voter fraud. It cannot happen if there are too many votes for the good guy. Tragic fact of life and now America and our groops and allies pay the price.

[wastedyears]

Too bad soldiers can't have their negative opinions published.

[adorno]

Webb's amendment would prohibit Bush from spending any money on a "unilateral military action in Iran without the express consent of the Congress."

Sounds like "pre-emptive surrender".

Webb believes that it's better to surrender now just in case Bush were to war against Iran and then, some months or years down the road, they wouldn't be able to stop the war or pull-funding for the war.
