The lefties are trying to squirm out of this one; they definitely don't want to be pinned down to an actual position. Pelosi is trying to get the House Dems to collectively dodge the bullet, rather than put up or shut up.
YOHOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Republicans growing SPINE!!
Or, is ROVE back?
Call the spineless cowards on their bloviating and they back down . . . it's starting to look like the DIMs have over played their pathetic hand.
Democrats are right, its just like Vietnam all over again. The enemy is taking great strength from the MSM, Hollywood, and 'Rats and Rinos in Congress.
Evidently Hastert has found the courage to stand up against the raving beech Pelosi......waiting for Frist!!
The fiery, emotional debate climaxed when Rep. Jean Schmidt, R-Ohio, the most junior member of the House, told of a phone call she received from a Marine colonel.
"He asked me to send Congress a message - stay the course. He also asked me to send Congressman Murtha a message - that cowards cut and run, Marines never do," Schmidt said.
Democrats booed and shouted her down - causing the House to come to a standstill.
BRING IT ON !
Spineless wet noodle cut and run coward demoncrats.
Boy! I just heard a Republican Congesswoman from, I believe, Michigan, read a quote from a marine in Michigan and he, the marine, called Murtha a coward! The house went nuts! But, she and he was and is right!
The Republicans presented a resolution that essentially says "We want to leave Irag right this second." No one is going to vote yes to that.
That isn't brave, it's just a blatant misstatement of Murtha's proposal.
Why is no one disgusted by these politics? Putting up a resolution you don't agree with only to vote against it, pretending that it is the position your opponents are taking (when none of them agree with it, of course).
If the congress is going to pull the plug on the Iraq war, it's time to say so now. Are the Dems going to get a third chance (and this will be the third they have voted to support the President--look it up) to vote the war down, vote for it, and once again say (with much success)that they are against it?
How did it ever come to this?
I love our troops; I support our troops and I believe in this President. How the enemy must be laughing and praying a Democrat is elected next time then they can have a field day picking us off a little here and a little there until there is no Republic left.
NO TO HILLERY!!!!!
I approve of our Congress stepping up, doing their Constitutionally mandated responsibllity, and approve the military actions our President had undertakern.
AP shows this was rejected but CSPAN says rules cmmte is still picking it over??
r
This is exactly what Sean Hannity demanded last
night on his programL: 'REPUBLICANS...go for an
immediate vote TOMORROW on this pullout of Iraq
deal. Make every Senator declare in front of God
and the nation just where he/she stands on the issue.'
Guess where I'll have my eyes/ears tonight!
Geez...bet Limbaugh wishes he hadn't picked
this week to go on vacation!
Squeal little piggy's squeal... ;o)
John Murtha, Jr. - Democrat - U.S. Representative from Pennsylvania. Implicated in the Abscam sting, in which FBI agents impersonating Arab businessmen offered bribes to political figures; Murtha was cited as an unindicted co-conspirator
Well the vote is over
The Democrats and liberals have no spine.
Vote 403 to 3
