NOOOOOOO THEY VOOOTED! MILLIONS MOST VOOOOOTE!
Liberal Iranians who screech about "bringing democracy to Iran" have no ground to stand on. The supposed democracy of the United States of America has just voted for a war that the vast majority of the American people are opposed to.
but it was only by 4 votes!!!! If we could just rid of mansion and cinnamon and two other guys it would've passed!! NOOOOO!!
😂
If all else fails, there’s always the Parliamentarian.
It's such a funny vote because the president has veto powers over the resolution and even if he signed it then he would still be allowed to do the war if he asked Congress for permission and they granted it
Passing it could have brought about a Constitutional crossing of the Rubicon (okay, yet another rubicon) that they’d rather not have.
Aww, shucks! Well, hey, at least we gave it a shot! That's what really matters! We came to this conclusion via democracy, so that is just simply beautiful and the reason why America is the land of the free, the land of envy of all authoritarian, totalitarian, oppressive regimes like the evil, malicious, bad Soviet Union known as Russia 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
Holy shit, I need to go run my brain through the washer for this one.
