"That information should be made pubic to everyone."

Well, maybe not "pubic"; maybe "public."

We acted like the majority tonight. If we continue to do so, we just might get a lot of people back on our side. Nothing unites us all like a knock down drag outer with the forces of darkness.

C-span has Murtha's speech he gave yesterday, archived...he said the same things yesterday that he said today...

I betcha you can find out what he said there...but, I remember watching his speech and jumping straight up when he said that...so, I really think what he said was a negative towards the American troops...but, it would be better to check it out for sure.

I think he could do that, but probably prior to that exact day.

MSM Headlines

CBS
Heated House rejects GOP Iraq plan

MSNBC
Lawmakers reject calls for troop pullout. GOP-orchestrated bill fails as intended; Dems deride it as a political stunt

Can someone explain to me why this vote is a political stunt, but Murtha calling for it isn’t?

Murtha was the Trojan Horse. Pubbies only had to climb aboard and bring his proposal to a vote.

Just heard the abc radio news, this vote is getting good republican sound bites. Everytime they play a dim decrying this vote and critcizing the Presidents plans(i.e. nancy pelosi), the unavoidable question that pops to ones mind is, well why didn't you vote to pull the troops out if that's what you think? Where are the demoncats convictions?

no matter how they try to spin it, this one is going to leave a mark on the dim's foreheads.

he he he

Our troops have become the enemy. We need to change direction in Iraq," said Rep. John Murtha of Pennsylvania

Apparently the subtext shared by rabid moonbats in Olds Media prevents them from seeing how bad that actually looks.

She voted NO, is she trying to send a message to men from women that NO means YES? This can cause lots of trouble.

Whaddya expect? She's one of those Orwellian Democrats. You know, the kind who think that "Diversity" is when you exclude all white hetero Christians, "Racism" is when someone doesn't get a job because they're unqualified, and "Budget Cuts" are when they ask for a 12% increase and they get a 10% increase.

Democrats and Reality are not on speaking terms. Haven't been for years now.

Hey, lets take a poll.

In case you forgot, the President announced his withdrawal plan when we went in. We leave after Iraq is free and able to stand on its own.

The troops know this and we should too.

In his speech yesterday Murtha said this :

" Our troops have become the primary target of the insurgency. They are united against U.S. forces and we have become a catalyst for violence. U.S. troops are the common enemy of the Sunnis, Saddamists and foreign jihadists."

Foreign jihadists must be Murtha's euphemism for " Al Queda."

Tonight he deviated from this text, which he was reading for the most part and definitely said " Our troops have become the enemy."

If he did...he lied...and if he didn't he lied... McKinney voted opposite the rest of the CBC.

Three Democrats voted for it, were any from the Black (whatever)? I don't know.

How racist is a Black Caucus anyway?
