Democrats Slap Down House Repubs

THIS is what we worked so hard for in 2006.

Democrats in the House voted down more funding for Bush's Iraq Quagmire today. And in the process, when a Texas Republican started spewing right wing talking points, Rep. David Obey of Wisconsin smacked him down.

Here is the long overdue smackdown of Republican Bullshit in the House:


Have no illusions. The funding proposal will be back and probably will get passed in some form. Let's hope, though, it gets passed in a form that aims for withdrawal, not more surges. Slowly, the Democrats are re-learning how to have a spine.

QUOTES

This was included in an email from Jack Carter's Campaign for Nevada Senate. I would just LOVE to see little Bush facing down TR and say he was unpatriotic. TR would punch the daylights out of little Bushie!

In 1918, during World War One, former Republican President Teddy Roosevelt said:

"To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public."
