Doesn't matter much, the MSM will spin this as GOP legislative trickery or not cover it at all.

[...Hannity could have heard that suggestion to call for a vote from someone else...]

Rush may not be on the radio this week, but don't count him out. I'm sure he's involved in this.

This strategy has the markings of a HAMMAR on it.

Don't worry I'm not a quitter......still holding down the fort in San Francisco. It;s just that at times like this it would be so nice to have a Congresscritter to contact who might actually listen!!

Televise the count to our troops so they can see who's supporting them and they can decide who to support in 06.

Your comment is superior and is precisely how each and every Rep should be asked.

Rangel doesn't even know who we are fighting. This is the beauty of a Democratic Republic. Even putzes like this get to speak in the public arena without being thrown in jail.

How can the 'Pubbies water it down ? It's Murtha's resolution they will be voting on, and if Murtha doesn't make the changes then it is a vote on the Resolution as introduced, I believe.

"Instead of being a vote on whether to pull out (aka. "surrender"), they are making it a vote over "encouraging the troops to stay the course."

"Well, who's surprised at this, really? The dreaded Incredible Ball-Shrinking Virus strikes the GOP again."

All of a sudden my excitment meter took a big dive...put the popcorn and beer up folks. This is weak..maybe the speeches will be fun though. Good grief.

If the Democrats are unwilling to support a call for withdrawal, either by a vote of present or actual absence, then it can be assumed that they oppose withdrawal of the troops and should shut up about it.
