More on HR 627
The exact text of the resolution is here. While I could certainly identify elements to which some war critics might object, I still feel like this was the wrong time for such posturing and grandstanding. It's time to get on the record condemning these atrocities, period.
Am I the only one who's pissed off about this? How is this vote going to play in the rest of the world? It's hard to explain to other countries that 12% of our congressmen are simply jerks who don't know when to just vote "YES" and shut up, and that it doesn't really mean we condone barbaric behavior by our troops.
