Is there any chance Congress could and would step up with an, "Oh, hell no!" on that?
I've been wondering the same. But I've seen nothing from Congress that suggests they might do this.
Oh, and I think the plan is not to invade, "just" to bomb....
Right. Sir. Honey.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Ann, that's a ferret.
If you're starting point is 'we can explain the origin of the universe without the supernatural,' that's a bias.
In other words, the only non-biased way to explain the origin of the universe is to rely on the supernatural.
Hmmmm....
BOOM!
The sound you just heard was Fred's head exploding. There will be a slight delay while we clean up the resulting mess.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
BOOM!

Oh, I thought you were just re-enacting the origin of the universe for us.

This Congress? I'm not going to hold my breath.

Huh, and I thought it was thunder.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Because we're going to need a new generation of liberals to fight this sort of thing, that's why!
Yes. My wee liberal army is nearly ready.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
From cnn.com: (this gets the "no duh" award - at least the first sentence)...
Presidential adviser Karl Rove blamed the war in Iraq on Monday for dragging down President Bush's job approval ratings in public opinion polls. "People like this president," Rove said. "They're just sour right now on the war."

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Yes. My wee liberal army is nearly ready.
Hey, you bring all our wee ones together and it might work.
But seriously? I'm thinking the time has come for the new liberal militia. My theory is that conservatives won't take liberal concerns seriously until liberals have as much firepower as they have. And I know lots of lefties who own guns and are able to use them responsibly. (Okay, so I'm not one of them, but I'd be willing to go to a shooting range and learn how to handle one.)
