1. hold state responsible even if weapons didn't come from the top?

2. Iran happy to see a level of chaos but they don't want total mischief in Iraq

Kerry says he supports binding resolution on Iraq

3. apprpriate role for Congress to make sure we don't have a backdoor draft..troops properly equipped

6. THEN PROPOSE ONE, ALREADY!!!

And I'm not singling out Kerry, either. But as more of our seasoned Senators join the race, it would seem that between Dodd and Biden, not to mention Kucinich in the House, there's enough grit, tenacity, eloquence, and importantly, numbers, to make a valid binding resolution a possibility. I'm not trying to dog anyone's candidate here at all, as all of the candidates I mentioned have outstanding credentials and credibility, but as the glut of candidates grows, and Senate is unable currently to even pass a non-binding resolution, these guys need to realize that they do have the power to stop this war. Demographics and charts be damned, the Democrats were elected to, among other things, stop this damned war. If Biden, Dodd, and Kerry worked together, possibly with a few Republicans (Yes, Chuck Hagel, I am looking in your direction), this can be a reality, as can impeachment hearings.

He just started a major promotion of it - set a deadline.

Endorsed by Kerry, and half a dozen other senators.

11. He intends too

as you can see from all the SETADEADLINE.COM ads. He wante YOU to be a co-sponsor. By the way, he is Chair of the SFRC subcommittee that includes Iraq and Iran and the rest of the middle east and near east.

4. "disastrous" to act like imperialists in Iraq---US should announce no permanent bases

Leverage stakeholders to compromise---won't happen at mouth of a gun barrel...our soldiers are trapped by political stalemate.
