Peters On The Non-Binding Resolution
PROVIDING aid and comfort to the enemy in wartime is treason. It's not "just politics." It's treason.And signaling our enemies that Congress wants them to win isn't "supporting our troops."

The message Congress just sent to them all was, "Hold on, we'll stop the surge, we're going to leave - and you can slaughter the innocent with our blessing."
