The same people who criticize the Patriot Act for being passed too quickly and without sufficient debate seem to be criticizing Congress for not passing this immediately.
(Not my point - a caller to Laura Ingraham made it Monday on her show. But a very interesting irony.)
I get the feeling the Democrats don't know what the heck to do with themselves, so they just opose or criticize whatever the Republicans are doing.
About this time last year, I said that once the Democrats have a presidential candidate, they will have a counter-program or proposal regarding Iraq, etc. Turns out I'm still waiting to hear it. I SITILL don't know Kerry's position on Iraq. I bet he still doesn't either.
Somewhat of an aside, but I don't see the logic in the complaint about timing coming in this crowd.
But when I start looking for logic in some of these politicians I get a headache. :)
