Democrats Offer Bush A Blank Check

   Party officials have said that the upcoming war spending bill will most likely be funding military operations in Iraq and the bill will not be demanding a timeline for bringing our men and women home.

   Once again, the Democrats have proven themselves to be nothing but a group of spineless, cowardly politicians who are concerned with nothing but their elections in 2008. Their fear of not looking week in regard to supporting our troops rings hollow.

"I'm frustrated" with the war, said Rep. Joe Baca, D-Calif., a member of the Blue Dog coalition, a group of conservative Democrats. "But we realize too we have a responsibility to fund our troops and make sure they have the right equipment."

  This line of bullshit does not hold water! Common sense, which Democrats lack, tells you that not giving Bush the money he wants can result only in him having to withdraw the troops. Case closed.

The bill also was expected to insist that U.S. troops meet certain standards before being sent into battle, out of concern from Democrats that some troops were going to Iraq without proper training. But the measure likely would give the President authority to waive this restriction.

  So what is the point in having the bill insist that the troops meet these standards of readiness if Bush can just waive them? wonder how much the taxpayers are shelling out for this waste of ink on this bill?

  The Democratic leaders are claiming a victory of Bush with this bill. How do they figure that they have won anything? For that matter, what have they won?  NOTHING! Absolutely nothing! That is what they have won.

   This bill is a weak bill and it has no business being okayed by the House or the Senate. Democrats need to get with the program and send Bush another bill that he can veto. Leave the consequences of his veto in his own damn lap.

   I think that I will move back to the independent group. the Dems and the GOP ain't shit.
