Thanks for posting that, Tom. Good, informative article. The operational paragraph, and the one so many people here seem unable--or unwilling--to grasp, and, therefore, blame Nancy Pelosi and the rest of the Democrats for not ending the war the day after they gained a razor-thin majority in Congress--but not enough to override a presidential veto--is:

"In short, contrary to many myths, the historical record shows that Congress has broad powers to authorize and limit the use of force, and to restrict operations in Iraq – if it can muster the majorities to enact laws, over the president's veto if necessary."
