War On Terror: The United States Senate has a long history of regrettable actions. But rarely has it done something as low and damaging to America as its vote Tuesday to withdraw troops from an active battlefield.

Congressional leftists are sticking it to US troops. This is a knife in the back.

Don't forget our own RINO!!! Without whom the senate wouldn't have passed the bill...

I hate Democrats, I truly hate them.

I wish people would wake the F up.

The Dims' mistake is that they think if they succeed in forcing a surrender that it will only be Bush and the Republicans that will have lost. In reality it will be all of us.

[Baladas]

That's true, but only two RINOs voted for this, Smith in Oregon and Hagel, who might as well just formally join the Democrat Party, he's annoying the hell out of the GOP.

At least this bill will be veteoed and sustained, but it still "looks bad" for Congress.

I thought it was interesting that Nancy stretch had to work so hard to buy enough of the libs votes with pork to get this passed. It's the ones who "sold" their votes that I dispise the most. Their pork was more important to them than the welfare of the troops or our country.

'Their pork was more important to them than the welfare of the troops or our country.'

My sentiment exactly. It's sickening. These people were sent to Washington to represent the people of this great country not their own agendas. It just drives me nuts when they claim to know what "the American people" want...
I would love to know how many American people Reid, Pelosi, Hagel, Specter actually spoke with..... They don't have a clue what the American people want or feel and, worse, they don't care!!!
