Who defined an "exit strategy"? That's code-speak for surrender.

Brilliant. Well said.

It's day where he is. It's possible he may make reference to this vote in his speech a couple hours from now.

"I heard [Murtha] read his resolution and it was much more nuanced than the Republican version."

Yeah, I bet. Nice try, but the word "nuanced" sends up a red flag. "Nuanced" as in flip-flopper? "Nuanced" as in "so ambiguous no rational person can understand it"? Or "nuanced" as in "I really want us to cut and run but know the American public won't stand for it"?

Oklahoma has only 1 DUmocrat (not from my district - Dan Boren, Paden) and I didn't check to see how he voted.

Considering this is a SOLID republican state, I doubt he sticks with the LIEberals of the party much.

Bush needs to come out tomorrow and make a statement thanking the Congress for its near unanimous show of support for the ongoing war effort.

I hope he does. I can just hear all the Democrat bloodvessels popping if he does!   :o)

Ashley Wilkes is a certified nut job, his endorsement of Michael Moore and even appearing along side of him is all the proof anyone needs to know what Weasel Clark is

BTW, I have been laughing all day at all the DemocRATS who have been blasting the White House for comparing Murtha to Michael Moore, That was also an excellent move. Several RATS called the comparison completely reprehensible..... and totally disrespectful to Murtha :-)

The White House managed to get the Democrat Party to condemn Michael Moore, even though the DNC reserved him a seat next to Jimmah Cotta at last years DNC Convention ..... THIS HAS BEEN A GOOD WEEK FOR US :-)

And Congress will be gone for two weeks!

Bush needs to praise congress' actions every day until they return.

Sure it gave him a platform and his words are those which reflect those of Crazy Cindy Sheehan.

But he's not Cindy Sheehan. He's a decorated war veteran and acknowleged big-time supporter of our military and troops. I thought he made an appealing presentation, unlike a Cindy Sheehan, and I think it a miscalulation on the Republican leadership's part. I am merely suggesting that it was a ploy that may well backfire, by providing the anti-war movement with a credible leader.

al Jazeera plastered his speeches all over the world and they are going to now have to say that his positions lost.

Which shows the world that free countries and free cultures are capable of tolerating dissent and nobody gets shot (or banned!)

Considering the DUmocrats trot out faux heroes (Jean-Fraud Kerry) and others with a solid yellow stripe down their back, I will be more than happy to malign anyone they put up, especially since their own party DUmps on our military on a daily basis.
