I see no words like prohibit, deny, exclude or any synonyms...

This bill does not authorize military force, however no where does it say it will prohibit it in the future, not that it could or would.

The language of the bill as it stands keeps the President from acting preemptively with the military which would also include sending special forces into Iran to help any potential insurgent groups to bring down the mullahs.

You may be ok with that. I wouldn't be.

It'll be a cold day in hell before Lantos authors a bill authorizing the use of force in Iran.

It says no such thing and you damn well know it.

The language was in the bill itself so it would not be construed as authorizing force at this time. No where does it say to Bush “don’t do it” today or tomorrow.

Come on man, drop the pretension and the spin, it is way past foolish...
