I took Biden’s comments to mean yesterday that Hussein would use our military to show the world that he has ‘steel in his spine.’

Hussein won the vote of the far-left Democreeps with his constant denial of military support.

Biden is preparing the base to turn hypocrite and suddenly support the Dems when they want to use the military for political purposes, as opposed to true national defense, as Pres. Bush has employed the military.

Like Ron Silver said in regard to the air force flyover at Clinton's inauguration (after he condemned the flyover), “Oh, wait, those are OUR planes now.”

Didn't Silver turn into a conservative? Well, "independent". from Wikipedia:

Silver, who was a Democrat for many years, has recently been an outspoken supporter for President George W. Bush, citing the September 11, 2001 attacks and the Democrats' policies regarding terrorism as his reasons for becoming an independent.

From the 'rat point of view, "steel in his spine" could well mean the stamina and determination to stand against and resist the gale of pressure to save Israel from Obama's soon-to-be negotiating partners in Iran et al.

Someone who can stand there and coldly watch newborn babies lose their struggle for life without stepping in to help;

who can by his own words abandon his own mother, dying from cancer, to fight it out with the insurance companies by herself and not offer her help;

can resist any human instinct.
