93. Non-binding simply means the bush cabal can legitimately
ignore it if they don't like it as opposed to simply ignoring it AND congress. On the other hand, the bush cabal CAN act on it if they like it, and they do, as if it was binding and then refer back to it as the reason they feel they received the go-ahead to act against the 'terrorist organization' aka the Iranian military.

The question you pose is a good one "So why are they wasting time with non=binding resolutions about war with Iran?". This was no "waste of time" for the repubs, it was a key amendment, imo.
