Pelosi hints at denying Bush Iraq funds

Ahh, yes, the Vietnam model lives!!! The Dems did this routinely toward the end of the VN War when they got into squabbles with the Nixon WH. They would turn turn the money off to fight the war for a month until the squabble got resolved, then they'd turn it back on for the next month.

This pattern was repeated several times in the waning months of the war. The part of the story that no one ever talks about is that while the money was turned off, American troops could not buy fuel for airplanes, bullets or bombs; none of which stopped the VC from continuing their attacks and continuing to kill American troops.

This is total BS!! We need to let the Dems know that we will not tolerate a repetition of the Vietnam model. Not this time!!!

So how do we tell them NOW! What influence can we have, where do we go, to alert the computer driven, that this is what is planned? No wonder they never acknowledged their plans for Iraq! If they had, they would have lost the election!
