If Majority Leader Harry Reid cant start pulling troops out of Iraq, he doesnt want to start paying them any more either.
After an amendment to begin withdrawing U.S. troops from Iraq within 120 days failed to receive the 60 votes needed to proceed, Reid set the entire defense authorization bill aside. By doing so, he shelved a 3.5 percent pay raise for all uniformed service personnel, $4 billion in equipment upgrades and a new program to treat traumatic brain injuries.
To increase pressure on Republicans to support the measure, sponsored by Sen. Carl Levin (D.-Mich.) and Sen. Jack Reed (D.-R.I.), Reid threw the Senate into an all night session on Tuesday evening that lasted through Wednesday morning. Levin-Reid fell eight votes short, 52-47.
There are two things that I want to accomplish, Reid told reporters immediately after the amendment vote. One is to pass a defense authorization bill, but with a deadline dealing with Iraq. Once we put that together, we'll move forward on it.
Sorry there aren't more ways but the Founders thought that any Senator worth removing should be removed from society as well ~ permanently. (The rationale being that Senators, with their 6 year terms, are going to have more opportunity to insuate corruption into their daily practice so if anything comes to light, the reality underlying it is going to be far, far worse. Therefore, just get rid of the person).
Gosh are the people in Nevada stupid ~ makes me want to dig the Yucca Mountain nuclear waste tunnels underneath the whole state now.
Can we put him on trial for Treason?
Here we are folks, the LEADER of the Democratic Party is AGAINST the troops and the welfare of their families, you heard it from the horses a$$ himself.
Except for the pay raise.
Unless you live in Nevada, you can't email him thru his web site,
HOWEVER ;o) we CAN phone and write them ALL thru their D.C. phones/addresses AND home state phones/adds with this list:

save the link and use it often starting NOW, TODAY ...;o)
I put in my zip and it took. I got a thank you after I hit submit. So, I think it went.
I have ran across that in the past.
I’ll start calling now too.
Thanks for the link.
Our base owes it to our warriors down range to protect their flanks from this DEM Congress (and MSM). Keep the intensity. Tell D.C. representatives to stand firm behind our CinC and our mission in Iraq.
Keep the intensity. Here is a link to all contact info -
They didn't. In '98 or so he was defeated but stole the victory by fraud. What did the republicans do? Moaned and groaned and as usual did nothing.
Alright!
Now whose got the fire to heat up that tar - I can bring the brushes along with my feathers.
Whose in???
;o)
Our tar & feathers today are our phone calls and emails to ALL media and senators - NOW TODAY - ARe you in?
My FRiend, the word "traitor" has lost its meaning, much like the word "liar", which has become little more than a synonym for a clever person who is determined not to be held accountable.
Reid’s mailbox is full at DC, but I left a message on the number from Nevada.
he's a problem to each and every one of us today - time to become a burr under his saddle - by not only phoning/emailing HIM, but every other senator and media outlet.
Rats are fast to desert each other - make 'em nervous with the response. Reid isn't facing election this trip. A lot of them are. And their bottom line is their own hide.
Let's make 'em nervous. They'll eat their own to protect their own traitorous butts
The Surge is Working and Exposing the Real Enemies of Our Troops

Tie the capitol police and individual polidiots security detail “costs” to the DOD budget..........when Scary Harry Inc’s palace guards walk away with no pay and someone walks in there an beats his ass like a red headed step child every day he’ll get a clue................maybe.
My apologies to all red headed step children.....
I will suspect that the annual collection of each services “fallout” monies will be redirected to war on terrors logistical needs for those only in country vs the CONUS bottle washer flying a desk who needs a new mouse pad .
Were I still active duty I’d agree to keep working without pay as my lawyer would get it for me from Harry when I returned. Failing the little-gator option.........I’d get it from Harry Inc myself eventually..........with interest.
As long as these polidiots keeps giving aid and comfort to the enemy I consider them domestic enemies of the USA.
Doom on em all........
Bump!
Unfortunately anything I could say in response would get me banned.
It will be given retroactively...this is show/throwing of a bone to his supporters....
BUMP!
Harry Reitard is the best thing that ever happened to the Republican Party. The Man from Stoplight is at it again.
Pray for W and Our Troops
>Please allow me to ask you this: How did Scarry Reid get elected in your State? Your post did nothing to help the image that I have of the people from your State who continue to put my security at risk by electing Reid.<
Reid got elected the same way Kennedy and Bush did, by the fine, intelligent, politically ignorant citizens of the US of A.
I could handle it much easier if they were in office for one term and then out but no, we seem to elect these treasonous bastards and then re-elect them and re-elect them until the nation is in the sad shape we are in today.
Reid didn’t get to his high position without the assistance of many other Democrats voters and legislators plus the generous businessmen who knowingly gave their hard cash to the man hoping he’ll return the favor.
I have called Reids office probably 30 or 40 times in the past year. His staff is normally polite to anti democrats such as myself but I will say that during the immigration vote they did get short with me a couple of times.
You are impressed with Cornyn?
Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) has introduced a bill, The North American Investment Act (S.3622) which requests financing for the NAU. Incredibly the bill contains near exact language from the book by Robert Pastor entitled Toward a North American Community.
Here he wants to disolve our nation. That should be enough for you to want to recall the treasonous bastard. How did the people of Texas get John Cornyn elected in your State?
This is exactly why we are seeing the 'Frenzy Factor" being ramped up by the traitors in DC. They are panicked that the tide is turning and we may just win this thing despite all the road blocks they have put up.
They are in great fear of GWB's being vindicated...a fate worse than death to them - AND their Socialist Agenda.
They are mired in fear - and they will, in their panic, show their underbelly.
Question is: "Will we take advantage of this and strike NOW?"
or will we wait and give them time to get back on their feet, encouraged by lack of response from us?
