The Senate Foreign Relations Committee just approved S.Con.Res 2, the non-binding resolution drafted by Sens. Biden, Levin, and Hagel expressing disapproval over the White House plan to "surge" 21,500 more U.S. troops into Iraq. Vice President Dick Cheney reportedly had this to say before the vote:
