Make DemoRATS vote again on the war

The Senate is expected to vote today on a referendum for President Bush to explain to Congress the strategy for the successful completion of the mission in Iraq. Bush’s answer should be a one liner: We will leave Iraq after victory is secured. This will send scrawny Harry and other DemoRATS scurrying for a dictionary to discover the meaning of the word victory when referring to something other than cheap political advantage.

Republican leaders, insisting to Democrats that they aren’t really that bad, edited a copy of the Democrats' amendment. The Rep amendment still requires the administration to give a schedule for meeting specific conditions on the road to Iraqi sovereignty, but drops the requirement that the schedule be tied to troop withdrawals. A real majority leader would have shoved a very sharp stick deep into one of scrawny Harry’s beady little eyes. You want a referendum on the war? I’ll give you one. Up or down vote on continuing the war in Iraq. We vote up or down tonight at 6 pm. Go gather your like-minded weasels. No posturing, no speeches, no media campaigns, no amendments that you vote for before voting against, up or down, no secret closed sessions, just a simple straight forward roll call vote yea or nay: Do you favor cutting and running in Iraq and leaving it to the terrorists?

Lex has noted over and over the Ann Coulter theory that you cannot call Dems treasonous even if what they are doing would be no different if they were. Dems squeal like stuck pigs when their judgment on national security is questioned. “Why, how dare you question patriotism” they intone whenever they are questioned or criticized about anything. Bob Scheiffer asked John McCain if it was appropriate for President Bush to question the patriotism of Democrats opposed to the war. And just how did the president question their patriotism? Well, of all things, Bush has begun using the Dems’ own words in support of the war they now supposedly oppose to expose their hypocrisy. The Dem’s mantra, “Bush lied our kids died” is finally being uncovered as the total crap that it is. If Bush lied, so did every Dem now seriously being considered for an ‘08 run.

DemoRATS seek to undermine the war the effort with an idiotic amendment and spineless triangulating Reps act as if they are riding to the rescue by proposing something that is only 9/10ths as bad. This, the ANWR vote, the Gang of 14 etc. is why I have little but disdain for politicians.
