Sen. John Warner (R-VA) will introduce a non-binding “sense of the Senate” resolution supporting the gist of the Webb Amendment on troop readiness. The effect is to undermine Sen. Jim Webb’s effort to make the troop readiness changes legally binding. And as Greg Sargent reports, Warner didn’t even bother to alert his fellow Virginian Webb of the move.

Late Update: Webb responds to Warner’s move.
