In 1975 Biden was one of the foremost Rat Party backstab artists in makinf sure funding for the ARVN was shut off. The same traitor behavior is once more coming to the fore. The repubs should be able to bear the Rats to death with this sort of stab in the back action. Question is can those who were terrified of possibl;e negatives from the Swiftboaters in '04 summon the intestinal fortitude to call a rat a traitor in in '07.

Filibuster it.

This is DOA, dead on arrival. It will be interesting watching the Democrats that voted for the war try to spin this into something it isn't.

I think America is wiser now than they were in November of last year and see once again what the Democrats really stand for.

And so it begins. First the RATs revoke his authority, then impose limits on what can be done, and once we're out, cut off aid. I just pray we can stop it this time.

Bush was not authorized to involve U.S. armed forces in an Iraqi civil war

This gem brought to you by many of the same members of Congress who criticized Bush 41 for not supporting the Shiite uprising following Gulf I in 1991. How convenient it is to have a short memory.

[jrooney]

They can't rescind the authorization. No do overs for these dumbasses.

[popdonnelly]

Sorry, but none of these clowns has been elected by the nation as a whole. The President has.

"First the RATs revoke his authority, then impose limits on what can be done, and once we're out, cut off aid."

And, exactly how will they do this?

[diverteach]

I wouldn't mind watching the RATS continue on thier course only to have Lieberman join the GOP ranks and get back the senate majority.

"Determined to challenge President Bush , Senate Democrats are drafting legislation to limit the mission of U.S. troops in Iraq"

That opening sentence describes congressional Democrats to a 'T'.  They're not trying to draft legislation to win the war in Iraq, nor make
things more palatable in Iraq for the troops.  They simply want to challenge President Bush.

Biden loves the whiff of genocide in the morning.

Senate Dems Move to Limit Iraq Mission

[GitmoSailor]

We are Doommed!!!!!!............OMG!!!...

[yldstrk]

Worthless idea.

[pctech]

Can't Bush just veto it?

[AprilfromTexas]

These are the same dims that don't recall Clintoon said Saddam had WMD when he bombed Iraq in 1998.

[ZULU]

Title SHOULD read:

"Filthy Little Mole Rats Plot Undermining America's War Effort"

[Founding Father]

Relax. Bush is in complete control (well if he wants to be). None of this legislation will get through the Senate and even if it did Bush would (could) veto it. Assuming the worst, a veto override, Bush could still refuse to comply by taking the position that his constitutional mandate of Commander in Chief has been impinged.

[Chgogal]

Disgusting.......

[jveritas]

It only begins in the delusional world of the traitors democrats, their media, and their left wing lunatic base. In reality the democrats are too weak and too impotent to do anything meaningful to stop President Bush strategy for victory in the war. The defeatists and traitors in the Senate could not even pass a "non binding" defeatist resolution against President Bush new strategy to win the war.

Fortunately the defeatists and traitors in the democrat part are much less powerful than they, their media, their lunatic left wing base, and some knee jerk conservatives think they are.
