Yo Clappers,

Sen. Murray is very level headed, I am very pleased with her representation.
Here is the link:http://murray.senate.gov/~murray/releases/02/10/2002A09F14.html

I sat spellbound listening to Sen Robert Byrd today, he was just amazing. He pointed out that the powers about to be granted to the shrub are absolutely unconstitutional, and that the Congress is voluntarily abandoning it's responsibilities. Once these powers are granted, they cannot be rescinded, the President has veto power over that...
Byrd also said that the granting of these powers IS a declaration of war on Iraq, and the statement that W has not yet decided to use those powers is laughable. He said he doesn't think the President is a bad person, but he wonders about the advice he receives from those counseling him.

In short, we are about to amend the Constitution with less than 2 days debate, and grant unprecedented powers to W to commit war.

Oh no, Mr Wizard.
