"Interesting how only three socialists/commies in the house had the guts to vote down freedom for Iraq."

I found that interesting, too. I was especially surprised when Bagdad Jim McDermott, one of the biggest socialist/commies in the house (wish voters in Seattle would wake up and vote someone else in) only had the backbone to vote 'present'.

I thought McDermott's "present" vote said a whole lot about what they know is going on. If he did not have the cajones to vote yes, with his base, something is really strange.

The vote tally proves the Democrats were pressuring everyone to vote together so their talking points would have more strength. Voting present was the only excuse most of them could muster, and I think three refused to go along.

Just north of me(broward) in retirement land where "old" voters (avg. age 175) all vote in lockstep, Wiggy Wexler, a rabid rat, also voted to bring home the troops. He's a piece of work.
