Who were the three who voted for it?
the resolution is dead.
So, how did this guy vote??
As a Shameless Ranking Leader of the Democrat Party, Nancy Pelosi should...
My head hurts..they were so disgusted that they voted for the political stunt??????
When the chips were down the Dems didn't date to actually vote against it, and then have the disaster be laid directly at their feet.
But I think I finally figured out why they are making these attacks and demands now: I think the tide has turned in Iraq and we are making real progress and they are afraid, that if we stay, Iraq will stabilize and everyone will see the President Bush was right, JUST IN TIME FOR THE 2006 ELECTIONS.
So they are trying to do everything to demoralize our troops, push President Bush into premature withdrawal, so that we would end up in a quagmire, then they can blame it all on President Bush, just before the 2006 elections.
I think that is a very poor platform to run on, but the Dems have nothing to offer.
"Democrats derided the vote as a political stunt."
ummmm regardless of what they thought it was...IF THEY THOUGHT THE WAR WAS WRONG AND THE TROOPS NEEDED TO COME HOME THEY SHOULD HAVE VOTED YES
coward POS commie sh*thead traitor fools!!!!
Rep pubbie Sam Johnson Kicked dem arse & rocked with the GOP closing statement.
Ah yes, when the shoe's on the other foot the Dems start moaning and complaining that it "ain't fair." Of course they have no problem when it came to the "Bush Lied About WMDs" B.S.
Next, the GOP should draft a resolution calling for diplomatic relations with Castro. Vote that down and force the RATS to go on the record against their Hollywood commie lovers.
Then, submit a resolution to overturn the protection of marriage act. Force the RATS to go on record against or for gay marriage.
There are all kinds of things you can do this with:
- Raising gas taxes
- Slashing the defense budget
- Mandatory service in Americorps
- Banning all parental notification for abortion
- Forced registration of all firearms
- Outlaw SUVs
This thing could be the gift that keeps on giving.
When the Democrats are that angry you know you've done something right.
Murtha (who was the floor manager for the yes side) brilliantly votes against his own idea. Just goes to show that Democrats would rather have the issue of the war than end it.
Murtha then voted against withdrawing the troops.
180 degrees within 24 hours must cause some kind of whiplash.
Since when is voting for what you say you believe in "Rank" politics?.... Shame on you Nancy and "Steny"!
How about that Pelosi! Great quarterbacking, huh? She's almost as good as Dean. She just lead her flock straight into this ambush, without even blinking!
Yuk... Liz Sidoti needs to take a few classes.
Nice write up. The first sentance says what happens, the second calls it engineered to fail and a political stunt.
There is one sentance by a Republican, one sentance saying what happened, and 8 sentances that are democratic talking points and rebuttals.
Typical...
Liz Sidoti is a big, fat, PHONEY.
