The only thing the President asked of them 18 months ago was to pass a Use of Force resolution so that Republicans would make a statement sharing in the effort. Turns out, since Bush and Cheney screwed them so bad for their Iraq vote, those brave Republicans won't even risk a vote of their war convictions. What have they done to fight terrorism overseas ?
