I want to see these people be honest, and lay it on the table with real money, or lack thereof.

Exactly - the key point in the CNN story (and about the whole non-binding resolution in general) is that it's only symbolic. IOW, no substance ("symbolism over substance" ... where have I heard that one before?), and only designed as a bone to throw to the Nutroots and other Dem Base groups.

The best approach to this from a pro-Bush standpoint is to keep hammering on it just being symbolic and that the Dems lack the b*lls to actually do something that will matter.

This is just the opening salvo. Pelosi and Murtha are already planning to withhold funding for the troops using readiness standards to prevent their deployment. Thye will be emboldened by the passage of this resolution.
