BTW, Maxine Waters unloaded .. BIG time at the protest. What a venomous cretin:

"The Chairlady of the House of Representatives’ “Out of Iraq Caucus,” Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA), also ripped into Bush. She said:

“My name is Maxine Waters and I’m not afraid of George W. Bush.

My name is Maxine Waters and I’m not intimidated by Dick Cheney.

My name is Maxine Waters and I helped to get [Donald] Rumsfeld fired.

My name is Maxine Waters and Connie (sic) Rice is nothing but another Neocon and she doesn’t represent me.

George W. Bush led us into this immoral war. He tricked the American people...He did not tell the truth...Bush says he is ‘the decider,’ but you know what? He’s not ‘the decider. He’s ‘the liar...’

I will not vote one dime for this war...Bring the troops home.”

Waters said some Congress people are only paying “lip service” to the antiwar cause."

Fighting was fierce all day. The commander of the Najaf police, Brig. Gen. Abdulkareem al-Mayahi, was among the wounded. U.S. helicopters and fighter jets attacked positions throughout Sunday.

Husam Ali, one of the Iraqi army soldiers who took part in the operation, said he saw more than 50 wounded among security personnel.

"I was there in the battlefield. I saw 7 (Soldiers of Heaven) members being taken prisoners by the Iraqi army and I saw another three who committed suicide refusing to be taken prisoner," Ali said.

Maj. Hussain Muhammed of the Iraqi army said he believed he was confronting a force of 2,000 militants.

About 80 members of the Scorpion Brigade from neighboring Babil province were summoned to assist. Late Sunday night, Babil police spokesman Muthanna Ahmed said, the Scorpion Brigade, protecting Najaf City's boundaries, got into a firefight with militants who broke through the lines. Ahmed said dozens of the fighters were killed.

Families fleeing the conflict said the Soldiers of Heaven had planted numerous bombs in the fields, which they hoped to detonate against government forces.

Maj. Gen. Qaif al-Mamouri, the police chief from Hilla who led the Scorpion Brigade, said the fighters were well armed with a large variety of modern weapons.

By Sunday evening, Maj. Mishari Hassan of the Iraqi army said the Iraqi forces had withdrawn and were replaced by U.S. soldiers.

So Maxine Fruitcake wants to defund the war and bring the troops home because she's not "afraid" of President Bush?

It's funny that she should protest so loudly that she's not afraid of him. Who's afraid of him?

Oh..........that's right............the enemies of America.

Methinks thou dost protest too much, Maxine.
