You wouldn’t know it from watching the news, but lost amidst Cory Haim’s death, Eric Massa’a groping and Obama’s continued attempt to subsidize the insurance industry on behalf of the global Commie-Muslim conspiracy, Congress is debating a resolution to end the war in Afghanistan today.

Crazy ol’ Dennis Kucinich — he’s short, so how can we take him seriously? — has introduced a resolution “Directing the President, pursuant to section 5(c) of the War Powers Resolution, to remove the United States Armed Forces from Afghanistan.”  It has 18 cosponsors (well 17 with Massa gone), including two Republicans: nutjob Ron Paul and Walter Jones, the man responsible for the “freedom fries” brouhaha who got tired of seeing his constituents come home in body bags.

Our own Louise Slaughter is on a swing list put together by the good people at Peace Action, who hope that we might make some calls this afternoon asking her to support the resolution: Slaughter, Louise McIntosh NY-28 202-225-3615
