Defeat Deserves a Chance

So the Lemoncrats are once again showing us they prefer defeat over victory. I guess this shouldn’t surprise anyone; after all- money spent on wars and national defense are monies wasted.
WASHINGTON - Democrats are not expected to take up President Bush’s war spending request until November, giving them time to calculate their next move and see if Republican support for his policies deteriorates.
Yea, calculate and connive and bicker and back stab (kind of like little kids eh?)…
“Just because this administration wears blinders, we cannot afford the limitations of their shortsighted world view,” said Rep. John Murtha, D-Pa., a Vietnam veteran and prominent war critic.
You know every time Murtha has spoken lately and made these threats, nothing seems to come of them. I wonder why that is? Is he as useless as he should be now a days? Has he worn out his favorable image?
“There’s a lot of anger out there,” Murtha told reporters Monday at the National Press Club. “A lot of people are very unhappy with the Democrats because we haven’t been able to get anything done.”
In February, Bush requested $147 billion for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan in budget year 2008, which begins Oct. 1. As early as this week, Bush is expected to ask for another $40 billion to $50 billion.
Murtha, who chairs the House committee that oversees military spending, estimated Congress is likely to ignore the request until November.
Congress could pass a stopgap funding measure that would include money for the war.
I doubt Congress will stop funding. To do so would prove to the American people, for and against this war, that the lives of our troops mean nothing. Murtha lives in his own little world; he has yet to come up with any proposal that his boss Cruella DeVille-Pelosi has taken seriously. I suspect he’s feeling a little left out of the game right now, so he has to flap his dumbo mouth to get some attention. It sickens me to no end to know that this NON Marine would cut off the lifeline to his NON brothers who are fighting in a war theater right now. May Marines have mercy upon Murtha when they all meet in their after life.
