3. Not satisfied with losing two wars, we are now poised for the third

Obviously none of those that voted for the latest travesty of Bush's regime have any children in harm's way.

8. Question is, did they take this voice vote in the middle of the night

When no Dems, or certainly no progressive ones, were around to object? :shrug:

Coz you see all the time, they do a voice vote initially, then someone asks for a recorded vote.

10. Have these Congressman lost their mind..

Are you sure this was brought to the floor and voted on? I dont think so
This is pure madness..What if * really pulls this crap and another country(major power) should come to the aid of Iran,its over
