War Supplemental Bill - Round Two

1’st thing I’d like to say is... would all you white flag waving Dems out there please stop saying you’re putting forward a working strategy for changing the direction and the mission in Iraq. You don’t have anything working but defeatism. Also, please stop saying the elections of last year prove the American people gave you a mandate to end the War in Iraq. They didn’t.

Next I’d like to ask this question... What Congress are you talking about, Dems, when you say... Congress did its job by getting a bipartisan bill to the President’s desk… WHAT Bipartisan Bill!!? The vote was anything BUT Bipartisan!!!!!!

Sadly the only thing the Dems got today, (as in days of past,) are talking points that have truly PO’ed most of the troops and their families and friends. Yet one will have to give it to them. They sure do make the hard left of their Party cheer with the news of possible defeat in Iraq and the overall war on terror.

Ohhh... I’m SOOO sorry... The Dems don’t think we have a war on terror going on right now...
OK, with that said and out of the way... let’s see what’s being reported in the news today about who said what and what is going to happen next...
