Cave In
You might be shocked to learn that democrats haved caved on the Iraq funding bill until September, though the leaders, as The Hammer pointed out, voted the right way. Did I not predict this when Nancy Pelosi, three monthes ago, told the dems in the House they would have to pas a funding bill sans deadlines if they couldn't pass the bill they were working on?
John McDumbass may think he can outflank Obama and Clinton to the right on this issue, but only a man with suspect arithmetic skills could think he could outflank a 2/3 majority of the country by taking the position of the extreme 1/3 and have it turn out to be a politically clever move. Arizona isn't exactly the reddest of the red states, either. I feel a little sorry for Arizonans, being treated like idiots by their senator (shit, Jon Kyl isn't the best, either).
Aaah, Republicans. When you go home this weekend, when leave office in a year and a half, the only thing in store for you is opprobrium.
