#1 rejected a call .... to start withdrawing U.S. troops from Iraq by years' end, as the two parties sought to define their election-year positions on a war that has grown increasingly unpopular

I'm sorry - how is it growing increasingly unpopular when the best they can do with a silly meaningless proposal meant to improve on their getting stomped 93-3?

It occurs to me that despite near Pravda-esque control of the papers, these poor media saps just aren't getting their message across. And they are going bankrupt in their efforts. It's a beautiful day.

#3 What bugs me most about these Senate proposals is that they closely track current deployment plans. I mean, how cynical can you get? The administration is already planning withdrawals and the Senate Dems want to take credit when it happens. Like it had anything to do with them.

Rat bastards. Liars. Thieves.
