They'll just say they aren't defunding the war on Terror, just Bush's "illegitimate" war in Iraq. As if the latter had nothing to do with the former.
Right. One last point I'd like to make is that our guys tend to believe in term limits (I stridently do not!) or just plain retirement. How many of our good guys have stepped down? Dick Armey, Bill Frist, Henry Hyde, Fred Thompson, etc. In the meantime, the Dems hold onto their seats forever.
