It would seem the Democrat-led anti-war surge of summer has failed, nor has it resulted in the political progress we were assured of going in. It's time to fire the Generals and re-deploy the anti-war forces out of DC. Leaders Pelosi and Reid need to submit a full written report on the failure, none of this political nonsense like we allegedly see from the White House on certain issues. It's time to hold them to account for this tragic embarrassment to liberal honor. One can only imagine the ridicule in capitols around the world. How on earth can we remain a Super Power if we can't even surrender effectively under Democrat leadership? Perhaps it's time for a change.
The Senate will adjourn for the weekend after a long week of tense debate over Iraq in which Democrats failed to move the ball and Republicans decided to stick with the White House in backing an unpopular war.
Yet another Democratic amendment on Iraq failed Friday morning, and this one didn't even earn a majority of Senate votes.


"Republicans decided to stick with the White House in backing an unpopular war."
I think that just about sums up the story. Why do I think the wingnut welfare groups are gonna be flooded with resumes on November 3rd?

Erm, because you didn't put down the peyote pipe before engaging either your brain or worse, typing your reply?
3. Nov. 2008 still is quite a long ways away mind you.
Plenty long enough to detox and free yourself of entangling hallucinogens. :)

Really? And surrendering and retreating in cowardice and disgrace helps...whom?

And there is still plenty of time for the (R) candidates to distance themselves from whatever perceived errors they have seen in Bush43.
Over 14 months in fact.
Plenty o'time.
