Oh my god.
I guess Truman should have ordered an immediate withdrawal of American troops from Europe after V-E day.
The Delaware senator, who voted in 2002 to authorize military intervention in Iraq, said he was working to repeal the authorization and to replace it with "a much narrower mission statement for our troops in Iraq."Biden needs to be reminded that the President is the Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces -- not Congress. Congress has no business defining the mission statement for our troops in Iraq or anywhere else.Congress should make clear the mission is to draw down U.S. forces in Iraq while continuing to combat terrorists, train Iraqis and respond to emergencies, he said.
Wait a sec, I thought it was an illegal war?
As wrongeheaded as I think this is, at least this is the proper way to do it. Not silly, meaningless, posturing resolutions that cost them nothing.
I've said it before: if the Dims really believed their rhetoric, they would cut off funding or take other actions. Maybe one of them actully believes what his party spews.
Other than that -- there's not much of a real threat/problem here...
IMHO...
Has Franken surged past Biden in the polls yet?
This is pretty hopeless. This vendetta since 2000 has gone way too far to the detriment of the country.
It's to the point of mindless childishness, stomping and tearing everything up because you aren't the center.
Very bad and disasterous for the future.
I have no doubt whatsoever that when they get in power, the dems will attempt to patch the damage, but it is severe and pervasive and will not be healed.
Fixed it
I just KNOW that Biden had to plagiarize this statement from somebody, probably Jack 'Yellow Stain' Murtha over in the House.
They must make all efforts to do this or their base will absolutely desert them.
And they are stumbling and failing in all their efforts because their anti-war arguments are all lies.
Biden is like 4th & 25, deep in his own territory, for the Democratic nomination having penalized for his announcement over his Obama comments.
It's a deep-drop, he's looking deep.... ohhhh, he overthrows public opinion once again! Biden turns the nomination over on downs... 4 & out.
This jacka@@ knows darn well that Saddam did have WMDs. We found over 500 of them in ordinance bunkers and the other most incriminating ones were moved by Russia by truck caravans that were observed by satellite to Syria. Everything has been hushed up on the movement since we, I believe not to embarrass Russia, have just shut up.
These Rats need to wake up and realize there is nothing they can do because they do not and will not have 67 votes in the Senate to override any veto. Minimum wage will be the only piece of legislation that gets through for the next two years.
Repeal the authority???? Only a Dim could say that without shrinking in embarrassment. It's kind of like a woman in her eighth month of pregnancy, after going through fertility treatments to ensure pregnancy, deciding she doesn't want to be pregnant any more and decides to claim she no longer agrees to the consensual sex that got her pregnant and now wants to revoke her insistence on being made pregnant. She's still pregnant with no neat way out and we're still at war . . .
Yet another wannabe Commander in Chief sounding off. You know The President really needs to stand up and tell these empty suits to shut the F up already. I am sick of him letting everyone and their mother assail everything he does. Reagan would have eaten these punks for lunch and do it with a smile.
