Uranium? if there is some it is Joe Wilson's (non-existent) Yellow Cake no doubt, not OUR weapons...

Anyone call the Duncan Hines Plant, and ask about the Yellow Cake?

Exactly howlin and one speaker ( i didnt catch who) made that point. All there know their positions. What this boils down to is this. The Dems do not want to go on the record with their position stating yes they are for this or no they are they not.

This is about a closed in simple resolution that gets all who vote off the fence and puts those that refuse to vote out in deep water. Kinda hard to claim to be for democracy when you refuse to vote.

Proof is in the pudding, Dems are busted today Big Time.

They aren't voting on the actual resolution are they?

Huh???? Where was he when our Embassies were bombed? Beirut, The Cole, WTC's 1 & 2, Pentagon, etc... would it have taken the plane hitting the capital building to actually wake some of these people up once and for all??

Powerline got this nailed:

By forcing the issue to a vote, Republicans placed many Democrats in a politically unappealing position — whether to side with Murtha and expose themselves to attacks from the White House and congressional Republicans, or whether to oppose him and risk angering the voters that polls show want an end to the conflict.

This obviously makes no sense. If most Americans really do favor an immediate pollout, then why would Democrats fear "exposing themselves to attacks from the White House"? And why would the Republicans gain politically from taking a position thta "angers the voters"?

Liberals can commit political suicide with this one

Lots of folks could ... and not just liberals. Have you considered what it would mean if the pullout vote actually passed, or is even close? It's not impossible.

Color me nervous.

Has anyone here ever been listening to C-SPAN and recognize a voice of a liberal wacked out caller? And how do you deal with the shame of it all?

I would say there is no way the Dems can spin this to their advantage, but...

6 RINOs voted nay.

Those names are to be added to the D column immediately. They should be shut off from all further RNC funds.
