I’d have to agree. I wish he’d just come out and saysomething along the lines of... “Regardless of what you believe, do you think it’d be a good idea to let terrorists take over the 2nd largest oil reserve in the world? Well, that’s what’s going to happen if we pull our troops out before Iraq is ready!”

Bush signed the veto with a pen given to him by Robert Derga, the father of Marine Corps Reserve Cpl. Dustin Derga, who was killed in Iraq on May 8, 2005. The elder Derga spoke with Bush two weeks ago at a meeting the president had with military families at the White House.

Derga asked Bush to promise to use the pen in his veto. On Tuesday, Derga contacted the White House to remind Bush to use the pen, and so he did. The 24-year-old Dustin Derga served with Lima Company, 3rd Battalion 25th Marines from Columbus, Ohio. The five-year Marine reservist and fire team leader was killed by an armor-piercing round in Anbar Province.

God Bless their family.

Yes, and also wishy-squishy “moderates” who can’t take enough of a stand on things to recognize how the communists are tearing down our military and our country.
