Maybe I'm stupid, but why didn't they leave the two clauses in and let the Democrats vote against it if they liked?

If it's some kind of arcane senate rule, how come the rules always favor Democrats, never Republicans? Couldn't the Republicans maybe learn to use the rules some day?

Democrats soften resolution condemning Iran leaders' insane remarks.

Why am I not surprised?

Here we have one of the best opportunities to help change a tyranical regime from within since the Solidarity movement in Poland, so whose the Dim who shot it down? Or should the question be who is the Republican without a backbone who folded?

Exactly!! It would have been even better had the resolution gone down and the Dems voting against it identified.

Headline "Senate Democrats Soften Iran Resolution" could have read: "Republicans Prove Democrats Really did Castrate Them"

Any of the 44 RATS could be likely suspects, since they're craven cowards who hope for our ultimate defeat, but this reeks of Ketchup Boy or the Witch. They simply doesn't have the cajones to come out in front and say it while looking ahead to 2008.

It looks like the cronyism of the Carter Presidency is still alive and well.

"Senator Clinton, a Democrat of New York, last week criticized the Secretary of State Rice, for not issuing a formal response."

The New Hillary.

You're not stupid; I had similar thoughts. I believe the point is that by having somebody object, that put the resolution into a new realm, where would take more time and energy to get it through.

In my mind, that does not excuse the Republicans from backing down once again.

Yet again, the Democrats demonstrate their misguided preoccupation with coddling terrorists by watering down this resolution. If they are not trying to hamstring our troops overseas, they are protesting/critizing the President on the WOT (latest attack on wiretaps), boasting about killing the Patriot Act, or fighting for rights for Al Quaeda....they are just traitorous bastards and cannot be trusted with national security.

The beauty of it is, the 1000+ FBI files and other dirt Hillary has on various Senators may have had as much to do with this castration as anything else. Now Hillary chastises the Republicans for not taking a stronger stand.

I see it differently. I don't think the Dems are misguided but rather quite effective. Unfortunately, their goal is the destruction of America.

If there are Republican senators whose FBI files contain information so damaging that it can be used to blackmail them, I want them OUT OF THE SENATE, just like I wanted Dick Nixon out of the White House when he lied to me!

When Mr. Santorum moved to introduce the resolution last Friday, Senator Wyden, a Democrat of Oregon, registered an unusual objection. According to the Congressional Record, Mr. Wyden told Mr. Santorum on the Senate floor that he was objecting to the resolution because his Democratic colleagues in the Senate had asked him too. Mr. Wyden did not say who asked him to issue the objection.
"While I personally am vehemently opposed to the statements that have been made by the president of Iran," Mr. Wyden said, "I have been asked by the members on this side of the aisle to object, and I do so object."

Gee...three guesses who...

The DemonRATs never fail to bend a knee to their evil Master! Nor can they resist calling evil good, and good evil.
