You can watch the Liberal Democratic Revolt against WAR in Pakistan live on CSPAN.

Lynn Woolsey just blasted the whole involvement in the Afghanistan War,
especially uniformed US Troops operating "in secret" in Pakistan.

Kucinich up now.

2. Ron Paul up now.
We have invaded Pakistan, and killed over 2500 Pakistani civilians for 14 Al Qaeda killed.

3. Does Pakistan also have magic terrorist soil?
It would make sense due to the proximity to Afghanistan

8. They supposedly hosted 2/3 of the training camps and love the Taliban
so I reckon so. It's probably easier to make some kind of rational case for going into Pakistan than spinning wheels in Afghanistan.

5. Ron Paul
How would you feel if Pakistan dropped a Predator Missile on your house?
The people of Pakistan don't want us there.

6. Ron Paul on fire.
We have to change our Foreign Policy because we are bankrupt.
We can not afford to be Policemen to the World.

9. This is the floor debate on Kucinich's resolution..
...which requires Obama to remove US Troops from Pakistan within 30 days.

This caught me by surprise,
and is no doubt related to the WikiLeaks revelation that uniformed US Forces are operating in secret in Pakistan.

13. Yup- I said the same below...
At least there will be a Congressional record
of those who are part of the MIC, versus those who
want the truth out.

12. K&R!!! Interesting timing: Wiki leaks story hits the headlines...
and now this "debate."

Unfortunately, I think this will ultimately end up as
yet another Kabuki theater scene, but am proud of Kuchinich
for never giving up.

At least it will be part of our collective history.

15. BVAR22, While I appreciate your posting this "debate..."
I gotta tell you, listening to the rhetoric from
the MIC owned Congress members makes me want to drink heavily.

17. Politely pointing out reality, versus the bullshit from Burton.
Go Dennis!

19. Rock the house Dennis!
Why can't more Americans watch C-Span?
I guess it's apathy.
Or the fact that they realize they would need dictionaries
to understand what is being said...

20. SO glad he called for a recorded vote!
It's always good to SEE and document who the rat bastards in the party are.

21. That recorded vote...
..will be added to my Voter's Guide to help determine who gets support, and who doesn't.
I no longer send blind contributions to the DNC, DCCC, DSCC.

22. Exactly... wish more DUers followed the votes...
Because the proof is in the pudding, therefore
no further discussion needed as far as who does and who doesn't
act in the interest of we, the people.
