I have no use for Hagel or Jim ‘I’m insane’ Webb.

Webb - just another strutting ass. Which means he fits in well in the Senate!

Jim Webb almost makes McCain look sane.

This Dwell Time Amendment provides a safety net under our troops.

So tired of 'safety net'--my Govenor is protecting the 'safety net' to the detriment of the State of Michigan. We need to adjust to the climate.

Maybe the war can just take a vacation when we send the troops home for their rotational cycle. I am sure the insurgents would do the same and just rest till we get back to the fight. What a bunch of idiots these congress dopes are. Who in the name of goodness votes for them? Surely the country hasn’t go down the tubes that far!! (Yet)

email from Dem party of VA, pushing Webb’s Bill.....

It’s time for all of us who support our troops to stand up and act!

Today in the United States Senate our own Sen. Webb is locked in a battle against the Bush administration to make sure our troops are safe, mentally, emotionally and physically healthy, and able to serve. His bipartisan Dwell Time amendment would make sure that our men and women serving overseas have as much time at home with their families as they have being deployed in Iraq and Afghanistan. Webb’s Dwell Time amendment calls for a 1:1 deployment-to-dwell time ratio for all active duty servicemen and women.

Call Sen. John Warner today and tell him to support Sen. Webb’s Dwell Time amendment. Our troops- and their families- are depending on him!

Senator John Warner

Washington, DC: (202) 224-2023

District offices
Midlothian: (804) 739-0247
Norfolk: (757) 441-3079
Abingdon: (276) 628-8158
Roanoke: (540) 857-2676

You can read more about Sen. Webb’s amendment here, and watch his explanation of it here.

Sen. Webb’s Dwell Time amendment would help keep our soldiers safe. This is one of the ways we should support our troops! This is exactly the kind of work Democrats are doing- finding real solutions to problems in spite of constant Republican obstructionism!

Let’s see . . .

There are approximately 1 billion Muslims worldwide, an estimated 15% of which are radicalized, which equals 150 million Islamofacists that want to either: 1) Kill all of us (Americans & Israelis), 2) Force us convert to Islam, or 3) Force us to pay tribute.

Its the U.S. military (under 1 million patriots) vs. 150 million crazy, screaming Muslims.

Its simple math that we now need to bring back the draft and significantly build up our military even stronger. More importantly, the Gospel taken to more Muslim lands will open more closed minds and hearts to Almighty God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

I’m beginning to believe Webb’s heart is in the right place. His head however is full of mush.

We are not in an “occupation”. We are in a war. We cannot let anything other than victory become the overriding priority in fighting this war.
