Good. As I reasoned earlier, GOP leadership would not have called the procedural vote if they didn't have the votes... which is exactly why the RATS were in full meltdown.

Now, the RATS have to choose one of the following: alienate my base, or alienate the American people and American troops in harms way.

This is the last thing that the RATS wanted, regardless of what spin the MSM peddles. These idiots can thank Mr. Murtha for putting them in this squeeze.

This is my scenario... when Clinton was pres terrorists kept attacking and attacking and they were certain we were weak and cowards so they attacked on our shores -- then found out our new President wasn't a cowards...

So my theory is the dems have been attacking and attacking and attacking and the GOP hasn't fought back and they (Murtha) felt they could lay on one more thing and once more the media would carry their water and the GOP would whine and do nothing....

Just as attacking the WTC/Pentagon on 911 was one attack too many and we fought back, Murtha's attack was one attack on the GOP to many and finally we're fighting back.
