Dems Look To Cut Off Funding...But Won't Admit It
This AP article is entitled Dems Risk Image Woes Over Iraq War Moves. In it, we learn that Dems are trying to balance their image versus what they'd like to do in order to stick it to President Bush over Iraq.
John Murtha wants to "redirect" money and "redirect" troops. "Redirect" is code for "cut off." After all, where will the troops and money be redirected to? Is Murtha still thinking about sending them to Okinawa?
This quote says it all:
"They don't want to be a scapegoat for the Bush administration's failures," [former Rep. Martin] Frost said. "This is Bush's war, and there should be no confusion about who's war it is, and Democrats should not set themselves up to have that done to them."
Bush's war? Isn't this America's war? After all, 29 Democrat senators voted "Yea" to H.J. Resolution 114: A joint resolution to authorize the use of United States Armed Forces against Iraq.
Some of those who voted yes are among today's most vociferous Iraq opponents: John Edwards, Harry Reid, John Kerry, Chuck Schumer, Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, Chris Dodd, Tom Harkin and Jay Rockefeller, just to name a few. (Note that Edwards, Biden, Clinton and Dodd are all presidential hopefuls for 2008, and are all hoping to appeal to the far left party base.) They all had the same intelligence that President Bush did. They all had an opportunity to look into the situation before they voted, but they're now saying, "If we had known then what we know now..." "Bush lied..." "Faulty intelligence..." Hindsight is not very helpful when trying to move forward. Many people thought Saddam Hussein had WMDs prior to that vote in 2002, and it's likely he did. However, the five months President Bush spent trying to get other nations and the ever anti-American U.N. on board gave Saddam plenty of time to spirit whatever he had out of the country, perhaps to Syria.
But that's the problem with today's Democrat Party, and has been the problem for the past thirty or so years. They are appeasers and apologists to whom it's more important to be liked by the rest of the world than to take care of America first, but they're afraid that the electorate will figure it out. So they come up with such brilliant schemes as "non-binding resolutions" and "redirecting money and troops," hoping that the problem will slowly go away without them having to reveal their true colors (the primary color being yellow). Working together for a common cause is not on their agenda.
And so it's come to this. Democrats say they support the troops, but hobbling President Bush and their own quest for power is more important to them than proving it. It's what happened 1975 when Congress cut off funding for our efforts in Vietnam, and they're going to try to do it again. And we can look forward to the Iraqi people being sacrificed over there so that Democrats can congratulate themselves over here.
They're not risking their image. They're confirming it.

After all, there's all those social programs that we don't need that the Dems are planning - you know like the War on Poverty which, over 30 years duration, cured absolutely nothing? But the Dems are all about giving money to people who are perfectly capable of supporting themselves rather than putting the money into defending our nation.
Posted by: Gayle Miller at February 16, 2007 02:00 PMGood post!
The Democrat party continues to behave more and more in ways that would be considered treasonous just a few years ago. They're masters at framing the argument in emotional terms that make it political suicide to oppose them. And the vast majority of Americans don't bother to educate themselves so they believe whatever the left-leaning media tells them. With all this going on, it's no wonder we're such a divided nation. Either you're for victory or for defeat, it's just sad that the Democrats are so good at making defeat sound like a good option.
Posted by: Reverse_Vampyr at February 16, 2007 03:03 PMWhat I want to know from these cut and runners is when the whole of the Middle East blows up in the Sunni/Shiite war what are we going to do about oil?What are they going to do when that explosion races across Europe and ignites here in the US?I am sure they will point the finger at Bush and bury their heads in the sand.This has the makings of the post Viet Nam atrocities that MSM buried. Damn them people to willing throw the lives of millions of Iraqis to the lions.
Posted by: Mike at February 16, 2007 07:26 PMExcellent comments above, all.
I simply paste the term 'scurrilous' upon this bunch of pathetic fools called Congressmen, who represent not me, nor anyone I know.
Is it possible to disown Congress?
Posted by: jng at February 17, 2007 10:45 PMWretchard at The Belmont Club provides an invaluable analysis of why Iraq is such a monster to the Left.
(Although his concluding paragraph is weak), he adds in a few short paragraphs more flesh to Pam's post. It all began with Vietnam, of course.
'But it is a "no" to everything. A yell of outrage and pain that "their" world has been destroyed by George W. Bush. One might timidly point out that Osama Bin Laden and radical Islam might have had something to do with it, but that will be ruled out of order because the crime -- and you have to understand the crime -- could only have been committed domestically. By Republicans. By enemy Americans.'
