Once again this year, I was struck by the irony of Republicans attending Church on Christmas.
Tomorrow, they'll slam the proverbial door and insist there is no room at the Inn.”

If they demand the bill be read then they should have to be the one reading it, not some clerk. That's what Coburn did with Sanders' Amendment. At the very least they should have to stay and listen to it being read. Not that they care what it says....

Don't get me wrong ... I think both wars were "good" wars. It's you guys who have to do intellectual contortions to dissect the two.
1- Do you - you personally - agree with the escalation in Afghanistan and Obama's committment to follow the extended Bush plan for withdrawal in Iraq?
2- Was the Iraq War ever "illegal" and if so on what date did it become "legal" again (if ever)?
