More On Iran

I didn’t have time to find the full text of the bill, but here is another probably scary bill that just passed the House of Representatives 397-16, with 19 not voting:
H R 1400 – Iran Counter-Proliferation Act of 2007 – To enhance United States diplomatic efforts with respect to Iran by imposing additional economic sanctions against Iran, and for other purposes.

I call it scary because of the short description and because of who were among those who voted against it: John Conyers, Barbara Lee, and Ron Paul. Kucinich was a no-show, but I am guessing he would have voted no as well.

Update: Well, at least they threw this part in there: “Nothing in this Act shall be construed as authorizing the use of force or the use of the United States Armed Forces against Iran.” And here’s the full text.
