Interesting little snippet in the story:


The legislation placed conditions on Bush's plan to build a missile defense system in Europe. It stipulates that Poland and the Czech Republic must give "final approval" -- which Levin says means parliamentary approval -- to any deal before the project can go ahead.

So the Democrats are now demanding that other countries sign off on our defense plans before they can go into effect? Its a pretty toothless stipulation anyway since any country where missile components would be emplaced would already have to agree to them, but still ...

We are the worlddddd - we are the chilrunnnn ...
