One of the things that I really, really dislike about Washington is stupid stuff like this. I understand that some in Congress don't like what the President is doing in Libya. Okay, if you don't like what the President is doing then get some of your friends in Congress to vote to defund the Pentagon. Or you can pass a new law which would stop all military action in Libya. Don't waste time with a resolution that has no teeth. Don't waste time. Focus on stuff that isn't simply symbolic. Focus on the economy. Focus on jobs!!!
