Good

I fear it will be the same old same old as usual in the political world, but good to see it none the less

Sad to say the vote to defund the Libyan conflict failed. On the plus side, so did the vote to authorise it. Guess the republicans are in favour of Obama's latest foray. Then again, their masters in industry the military probably told them how they wanted them to vote. War is the health of the state.

Apparently they were against it before they were for it.

That sounds kind of familiar. I'm not sure where I heard that before, though.
