L.A. City Council votes on anti-war resolution

The title ('L.A. city council rejects anti-war measure') of this article isn't exactly correct. There's another vote coming up Friday, so it's not over yet.

"In my view," [Councilman Jack] Weiss told the hearing, "we ought to be focusing on fixing sidewalks and not (Iraqi leader) Saddam (Hussein)."
