>>This non-binding stunt has the same effect of them sitting around smelling their own... well, you know.<<

I think it may have real effects - encouraging Al Sadre and Al Quaida. I said up to the night before the first missile that President Bush was just using the leverage given by congress to put pressure on Saddam and we would not invade for a variety of reasons -legal and practical...

But we did invade and we have lives at risk and have assumed responsibility there. Appearing like congress may try to force us to turn and run could also hurt U.S. troop morale.

Whatever you think about how Johnson got us into Vietnam, we know now that the military people there were effected by attitudes back home.

You're right, of course. The Dems have been wanting Vietnam Pt. II and by god, they're gonna have it!
