That is how we began this week with the resolution of disapproval. But yesterday, they brought their self-styled foreign policy experts to Washington--Sarah Palin, Glenn Beck, Donald Trump-- and they said a resolution of disapproval is not enough. So today, Republicans have abandoned the only tool they had to stop this agreement--a resolution of disapproval; that is not even in this resolution--and they are off on a three-pronged approach to satisfy the most extreme views that prefer to use war as the first instrument instead of the last instrument. We have a choice in this Congress, and it is the choice of using the strong power of America, with verification, to prevent this program rather than calling on more military families to sacrifice for an unnecessary endeavor.
