Also, if this bill passes, and I understand that it will because of the number of declared co-sponsors, Iran and other governments should protest by requiring that all American purchases including oil be made in Euros. I am another American Christian for Palestine. Palestine Forever.

Byrd's Fable Fits Perfectly (tags)
"Those who have dared to expose the nakedness of the administration's policies in Iraq have been subjected to scorn. Those who have noticed the elephant in the room - that is, the fact that this war was based on falsehoods - have had our patriotism questioned. Those who have spoken aloud the thought shared by hundreds of thousands of military families across this country, that our troops should return quickly and safely from the dangers half a world away, have been accused of cowardice. We have then seen the untruths, the dissembling, the fabrication, the misleading inferences surrounding this rush to war in Iraq wrapped quickly in the flag."
