I think the one Republican vote was a confused vote and was pulled back.

I think all these Congressmen and Senators forget that. We are the majority. We held an election a year ago, and we won! Screw these polls which come out hourly now. If we stand up and support Bush, and the war, then we will win the war. There's no doubt in my mind that our troops will wipe out the terrorists if given sufficient time and support. If we let the leftists tear down the war and the President, then sooner or later, we'll be forced out of Iraq in defeat, just like Vietnam. The war will be won here, not there.

Woo Hoo!

If you want a perfect example of the influence of us 'ordinary' Americans just look at what happened in the House of Representatives tonight. A vote of 403-3 against surrendering in Iraq!

And who voted AGAINST... Pennsylvania congressman John Murtha a day after his statement of surrender, a 'shot heard around the world' including by Al-Jazerra where he was the top story yesterday.

The power new media in forums like Free Republic, Hannity Forums, the blogosphere and talk radio was on display today.

The FReepers here Free Republic rang Murtha's phones off the hook, caused his fax machines to run our of paper and filled his email inboxes. See this thread: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1524448/posts

Way to ge everyone who took time out to call, fax and email their representatives in the House and Senate!!! You are all 'Great Americans'!

I think Nadler lost some weight. He only has 4 chins now instead of 6.

How racist is a Black Caucus anyway?

Well, not being racists being the size of the Penguins, the racism of the Black Caucus is this ship...

Well I do believe that "Tyrone" would be a better storm name than "Gamma".

He praised his intentions, not his resolution. There's some PA politics going on there, and maybe some Able Danger politics as well.

What's the topic? If it's about free trade with Mongolia for yak-hair slippers, prob not.

But, I'm sure he'll mention this vote.

This was a good thing, no matter what CNN, ABC, MSNBC, CBS, etc., say.
