Rescind Bush's Authorization To Wage War In Iraq

Southern Senator Robert Byrd has proposed a bill that would effectively halt and repeal President Bush's authorization to wage war in Iraq, something Bush demanded and got (too easily, IMHO) back in 2002, aided by bunkerfuls of Bush Administration lies and a Congress far too frightened to talk reason.

Now NY Senator (and 2008 Democratic presidential helpful) Hillary Clinton has jumped on the bandwagon.

Yet this legislation is NOT brand spanking new. Senior Virginia Senator John Warner - and a Republican, at that! - first proposed this months ago, although without much attention given.

I very much support a repeal of the president's authority. What say you?
