24. You're damn right it's "loaded with he said she said" & hearsay!
Edited on Mon Jul-16-07 10:03 PM by scarletwoman
The problem with it -- as I've pointed out here -- is this:

The Senate has gone on record charging Iran with aggressive actions in Iraq. Therefore, bush, at any time he chooses, can point to the Senate's affirmation of Iran's perfidy as "proof" that Iran must be dealt with. And with so much disinformation already part of the "findings", do you really trust that the required 30 day report is going to be LESS filled with hearsay and propaganda?

I stand by my assertion that this amendment leaves a wide open door for bush to "decide" that Iran must be attacked -- and that Iran can be attacked under the terms of the Iraq War Resolution with no further "permission" of Congress needed.
