More bad news for the Democrats, news that Harry Reid and Hillary and all the other defeatocrats will not allow to change their inveterate desire to see Iraq end as a huge Bush failure. That’s how much they hate Bush. Damn the Iraqis who sided with us, if it’s up to Murtha, Pelosi, Reid, and Clinton.

It amazing how all this would pan out:
Democrats pull funding
Republicans get blame for failure.

I think those voting tor curtailment of funds should offer room and board for the questionable Iraqi immigrants that come home with our troops.

The troops are slowly but surely whittling them down. With so many tribes turning on al Qaeda, it’s going to be going out of business in Iraq soon.
