1. Plans is the operative word
Plans doesn't mean actually doing it.

4. If the Democrats were united they would stand together for a HUGE photo op
on the Capitol steps and say, "That is unacceptable! We will not continue this war! We will not fund it any longer than it takes to bring all the troops home beginning today!"

:patriot:

10. It's Dick Nixon all over again
This beady-eyed wad of fuck is playing around with "troop withdrawals" without actually having the balls to admit that we screwed up and pull out.

I'm old enough to remember this crap the first time it happened. Why do people keep falling for this crap? Why does Charlie Brown keep thinking Lucy will let him kick the football?

13. We're hardly the first to point out the similar tactics
Difference being, Nixon actually had some semblance of honor (and was a towering intellect by comparison to this Stalinist thug we have now.)

But thanks for the link; interesting read.

11. Tell MSM and Bushco that
Bush is well well past his sell date and nothing he says tonight will change that..
Bush is lying about bringing those troops home. They have to come home - they were coming home before this Betrayus report.

By the way have these liars sent those emails to Conyers and Leahy yet?
Fuck Bush.

Anyone know a way to find that out?
