Lieberman and Collins:

For future hearings, Democrats and Republicans won’t sit on opposite sides of the dais but rather, next to each other — alternating Democrat, Republican, Democrat, Republican etc.

In a joint statement , Chairman Lieberman, an independent, and ranking Republican Collins, said “In the last election, the voters said they were sick of the partisanship that produces gridlock… So, as a start, instead of sitting on opposite sides of the room like a house divided, we want the American people to see us sitting side by side as our committee members work together make our nation more secure and our government more efficient.”

"Partisanship that produces gridlock"? Um, Joe and Susan -- the GOP had complete control of the US government until this year.

THAT'S what people voted against -- Republican governance. They hated it. It's been a mess. They wanted Democrats to put an end to it.

In other words, they voted for gridlock.

And in 2008, we'll find out if they want more gridlock, or if they'd rather give Democrats a shot at governing.

   Go away Lieberman, no one wants to hear from you anymore.

Cheney Talks His Crap Again About U.S. Troop Support

    Vice President Dick Cheney " When members of Congress pursue an anti-war strategy that's been called 'slow bleeding,' they are not supporting the troops, they are undermining them. Anyone can say they support the troops and we should take them at their word, but the proof will come when it's time to provide the money.

     We expect the House and Senate to meet the needs of our military and the generals leading the troops in battle on time and in full  measure.     When members speak not of victory but of time limits, deadlines and other arbitrary measures, they are telling the enemy simply to watch the clock and wait us out.

  Very soon, both houses will have to vote on a piece of legislation that is binding, a bill to provide emergency funding to the troops, and I sincerely hope that this time, the discussion this time will be about winning in Iraq."     Yahoo News

      This dork must have this speech on a tape recorder, I-Pod, or MP3 disk some where as it is the same shit we here from him every time that he opens his mouth about supporting the troops.

     Where was the troops' support at Walter Reed and elsewhere or at the VA when they came home from Iraq? They come home to paperwork and more paperwork only to then get passed from one agency to another and then they get sent back to Iraq even though many troops have medical conditions which doctors say they cannot overcome.

    This is Cheney's version of support the troops and his little puppet Bush's also. You need to shut the fuck up you asshole and go back home into your swamp and let the real American's in this country fix you and George's mess that you both have created.

    You sir, are the worst excuse for a human being that has ever walked this planet of ours.

    This is the American Citizens country, not yours, and we will take it back!  I've got a prison suit with your name on it, Cheney.
