Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle, who last week criticized President Bush for the direction of the war in Afghanistan, is now praising the president's leadership.
In a resolution, Mr. Daschle declares that the Senate "stands united with the president in the ongoing effort to destroy al Qaeda." He also offers condolences to the families of U.S. troops killed in action.

When a guy like him buddies-up to ya , ya had better watch your backside.
Or as Maxine Waters would say, he did a 360 degree turn.
If I were his wife, I'd kick him in the nuts, and leave him in a heartbeat.
His wife, Linda is probably advising him...
"And given the soft currency of Washington's access business, it's awfully hard to separate influence in such concrete ways, especially when many of Daschle's clients are lobbying both her husband and the Senate as well." Tom Daschle's Hillary Problem posted on FR.
LOL!!! For some reason, that's damn funny...why, I don't know, but it is.
That's what Dasshole thinks he is but he's a p issant compared to a Captain of a nuclear submarine with 12 to 16 multiple nuclear warhead missiles.
NO, he was probably told today that WE ARE GOING IN... just like blair said... and mcainiac slipped and said... He does not want to get caught bad mouthing our troops and our soldiers when we are going under fire... and under fire we are at this very moment.
And in addition, the lifeless bodies of 7-8 of our kids coming home in boxes draped in the blood-red white and blue of our flag, kinda throws a damper on his whole "I hate bush and america, and I disagree with this war" act.
the man is as revolting as the puss running from an open sore on the rotting carcase of a dying ravenous dog.
How can this person look himself in the mirror? Puke.
I guess I really don't care for the little fella... tommie d.
was not intending to stir anything but a little further disdain for the little fella
BTW, I forgot to mention that I agree with your analysis in 49
They are saying this september. I am guessing that means any minute now...
God bless and protect these United States of America. Tonight, now more than ever...
But then again, off the top of my head I can't find a more appropriate analogy so I guess yours will have to do.... for now. ;^)
In other words, the callers opposed his stance. Tom Dash-hole: whatta wuss.
FLOPExcerpt:
Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle, who last week criticized President Bush for the direction of the war in Afghanistan, is now praising the president's leadership. . . . . . . . . . .
An aide to Mr. Daschle said his office received an increased volume of phone calls after his criticisms last week but did not know whether the callers supported or opposed his stance.
Democrats continued to search yesterday for safe ground on which to differ with the White House on the war. Some Democrats complained that the administration was not briefing them on the war's direction and on emergency plans to keep the government running.
Senate Minority Leader Trent Lott, Mississippi Republican, said Democrats are still searching for an election issue as the opposition party.
"When you don't have anything substantive to talk about, you start talking about process or how you need more information," Mr. Lott said. "That's what's happening here. Senators that are grouchy that they're not getting enough information ... they can't complain about the war on terror, they can't complain about the economy because the economy appears to be improving. And so what do they have to complain about? 'Oh, gee, I need more information.'"
Mr. Daschle, after meeting with Mr. Bush at the White House yesterday, downplayed the dispute over being kept out of the war loop.
"I don't want to complicate those plans any more by going on and on about who was notified when," Mr. Daschle said. "I don't believe that there was adequate notification [on government contingency plans]. Having said that, we will move on."
hmmmmmm
