(And it would certainly receive a veto if it ever did)


"California Rep. Barbara Lee -- the only member of Congress to vote
against
authorizing President Bush to respond militarily to the terrorist attacks
of
Sept. 11, 2001 -- has initiated two recent actions in the House of
Representatives that further solidifies her role as a leading opponent of
the Bush administration's foreign policy. Rep. Barbara Lee was nominated
in
late June for the Nobel Peace Prize as part of an international effort to
recognize the work of women around the world who promote peace.

On June 30, Lee introduced a bill that states it is "the policy of the
United States not to enter into any base agreements with the government of
Iraq that would lead to a permanent United States military presence in
Iraq." The bill currently has 41 co-sponsors." (All Democrats no doubt).
