"Sen. Ted Kennedy, D-Mass., said he will offer an amendment to the Iraq spending bill that would bar money for relief and reconstruction until Bush officially reports to Congress on his Iraq strategy."

Could you imagine if a republican "offer'ed' an amendment...that would bar money for relief and reconstruction"

What is really nice about this is that Teddy is limited to proposing ammendments to bills sponsored by Republicans.

As a minority weenie, Teddy doesn't have the power any more to start any committee investigations (inquiries). He has been neutered as a powerful senator and is now a weak one.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't these bastards just vote themselves another "cost of living" increase in their salaries? So, it's okay for them to get $186,000 a year, be totally exempt from Social Security taxes, get full medical, and a million dollar pension plan- but they can't find the money to defend our nation? I'm speechless!
