The committee spent most of Wednesday debating the merits of a resolution behind closed doors and for about an hour in public.

So how did senators vote? Here’s a breakdown:

Final tally: 10 to 7, with one senator voting present.

Who voted yes?: Committee Chairman Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) and Sens. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) (by proxy — was absent due to the Jewish holiday), Benjamin Cardin (D-Md.), Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.), Christopher Coons (D-Del.), Richard Durbin (D-Ill.), Tim Kaine (D-Va.). Ranking member Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.) and Sens. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) and John McCain (R-Ariz.).

Who voted no?: Sens. Tom Udall (D-N.M.), Christopher Murphy (D-Conn.), James Risch (R-Idaho), Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), John Barrasso (R-Wyo.) and Rand Paul (R-Ky.)








Who voted present?: Sen. Edward J. Markey (D-Mass.).

Can you not see the hypocrisy in that? We supplied how many dctators with weapons to keep them in power and their people oppressed? And now we, once again, trot out this tired old "We are doing it to save the people of <insert name of nation here> from the cruelties of oppression!"?
