Taranto offers up this list of House Representatives that have openly said that they do not support our military, with an official 'no' vote on HB 104.

John Conyers (Mich.)
Mike Honda (Calif.)
Stephanie Tubbs Jones (Ohio)
Barbara Lee (Calif.)
Jim McDermott (Wash.)
Charles Rangel (N.Y.)
Bobby Scott (Va.)
Fortney "Pete" Stark (Calif.)
Edolphus Towns (N.Y.)
Maxine Waters (Calif.)
Diane Watson (Calif.)

It should be noted that this was not a vote in support of war, merely a vote to support our men and women putting themselves in harm's way, so that we can continue to enjoy that freedom we take advantage of on a daily basis. The specific wording expressed "the support and appreciation of the nation for the president and the members of the armed forces who are participating in Operation Iraqi Freedom." It should also be noted that several (21) Representatives voted 'present', which Taranto says must mean that "they can't decide if they're for or against America's troops".

I was a little surprised to see Bobby Scott's name on the list, since he co-sponsored a similar bill, HB103. Scott's website offers the following statement:

Congressman Scott opposed H. Con. Res. 104 tonight, because provisions in that resolution sought to establish that Iraq posed a continuing threat to the United States and that Iraq was specifically associated with the terrorism of September 11th. The case that Iraq posed an imminent threat and the case that Iraq participated in the events of 9/11 have not been proven, and the lack of that evidence was the primary reason that our U.N. resolution could not achieve even a simple majority in the U.N. Security Council, with several of our traditional allies among those in opposition to the resolution.

I guess Saddam's open sponsorship of Palestinian terrorism, and other Iraqi ties to al Qaeda just weren't convincing enough. But then, with your head in the sand (or up your ass), sometimes it's hard to see the light.
