But even if they have a small minority in the House (which is, btw, an historic LOSS for the opposition party who gain typically 40 or so seats), they will not have the ability to create veto proof legislation that will harm our troops or the war on terror.
Remember Murtha's get out of Iraq bill that got, what? 3 votes in the House?
Other than an ego boost this will do nothing for them. But it WILL result in a loss of the conservative agenda of the House Republicans.
I wonder if Malkin is gloating about that?
It's not a small majority.
There are at least 3 dozen Democrats in the House who know that voting to cut and run in the WOT would mean they're out of a job come 2008. The Dems do not have the votes to cut funding for the WOT.
