It is hard to believe that sane people cannot see through Nancy Pilosi. She has no regard for this country and is interested ONLY in power, power, and more power.
I worry that the Bush haters and the USA haters are dividing the country while all of our enemies are cheering.
Osama loves Nancy!

OK so I may get flamed badly for this but remember I am Just sayin....as in, this is just an idea in the abstract. Maybe they could be shown in no uncertain terms.
The Democrats are so very interested in timetables and benchmarks. President could just gave the Democrats both of them. Just not in Iraq, in Washington instead. That would be April 15th. A day most see as a day of reckoning already.
President Bush has drawn a line in the sand, a clear line.
Maybe one a little more clear needs drawn if they do not notice the one he drew today.
I think the Democrats will admit defeat by sending a last minute bill that is clean of their crap and of pork. That in itself would be a defeat which is why they did what they did today to start with, trying to avoid facing that defeat.
But if they don't, here is the flame drawing idea I just had as I read this thread.
The President can come out and say that if a bill is not on his desk to fund the troops that he will resign and that Dick Cheney and his Cabinet will resign as well.
I know it is drastic and even kooky but think about it for a minute. Who is going to support that, outside the most left of idiot moonbats of course?
Democrats would be forced to put up or shut up. W can take the high road saying that he cannot be held responsible for a Congressional leadership that refuses to fund troops in the field during an ongoing war. The only thing he can do is pass the torch to Nancy herself.
Ugly and painful thought I know, that is exactly the feeling this idea means to instill. Something like this would steal Hillary's thunder big time. First woman in the White House and all. It would also make Nancy and the Democrats own their rhetoric in the biggest possible way.
It would also show the people of this nation what is really at stake now and in 2008.
Now, I would not want to see W resign and I think that just this threat made openly would scare the $HIT out of Democrats. It would fire up the leftist morans because this is exactly what they want. So if the Dems cower to the threat the Cindy Sheehans will go even more a ballistic than they have been already. If they don't, well, then they have total control and they don't get to start from position ofhaving most troops out in 2009 already.
Let's say he actually did do it. What would the Democrats do? Pull them out instantly? Nancy would do that? There is a fair amount of time before the next election an surely we would be attacked by an emboldened enemy. Not that I want to see that happen either, but I fear that is what it is going to take to wake people up to what is really going on.
Basically, I am saying that W could threaten to walk away from the ultimate hand tie and force the Democrat Party to walk the walk they have so talked. No matter what happens, such a sacrifice would spotlight the Democrats for the lying backstabbing anti American Bush hating power mongers that they really are in a truly undeniable way.
I realize this is drastic but I believe we are in drastic times. I liked seeing W pissed off today. We need some more of that. Alot more of that.
In some ways, on a seperation of powers level, Legislative is the Executives boss. In this case it is money. Think to yourself about jobs you have held where you needed to do something and you just flat out couldn't get it done because the boss above you just wouldn't listen and played games instead.
What did you do to resolve it? Tell them to piss off and do it themselves then. This is what I am saying W could do now. Put the biggest ultimtum in this Nation's history on the table and watch the Democrats hide like the band of political game playing punks they really are.
I am not usually quite so partison but I am pissed of about this. This is not political gamesmenship as usual. Our Democratic Majority Congress just threatened the lives of the people all over the planet that protect my sorry ass .
It is time they pay a due price for this.
Before you just flame me just to flame me, think about how 08 would look if W seriously laid the smack down in such a way. The Libral leftist control over the Democratic Party would be crushed no matter how it played out. They would have to spend years trying to rebuild a shattered reputation.
I know its nuts but a guy can think in the abstract out loud once in a while can't he?
BTW, welcome to FR :-D
