This may be a silly question, but just exactly who are the Democrats "scoring political points" with? Their base?
Good for Bush. He needs to really stick it to the Democrats and all those that oppose fighting this WOT the RIGHT way. May God bless that man and give him the strength he needs to fight the battle.
Yes, the RATS are placating their base with this noxious political theatre, but they are skating on thin ice. If they continue down this path toward a veto showdown, the RATS will reacquire the "soft on national security" tag, which means suicide for their freshmen and for their majority.
