Crazy Eddie!

look it up, add "Mote" to your search

When a city has grown so overlarge and crowded that it is in immediate danger of collapse ... when food and clean water flow into the city at a rate just sufficient to feed every mouth, and every hand must work constantly to keep it that way ... when all transportation is involved in moving vital supplies, and none is left over to move people out of the city should the need arise ... then it is that Crazy Eddie leads the movers of garbage out on strike for better working conditions."

Crazy Eddie is a little like Murphy, on steroids. Crazy Eddie "Always he does the wrong thing for excellent reasons.", and does them at the worst possible time.

I can’t find the committee vote it passed 27 - 21 in committee it sounds like it is on party lines. Pelosi is yet to sked it for full house vote.

The resolution is valid and is supported by both (R) and (D) but it is the timing...

It is the more harm then good clause. If you are politically on the side of defeat in Iraq and you force a vote of this particular legislation you are basically stirring the poop pot. Turkey has already protested the legislation if it goes to vote in the House no Republicans will support it but the Dem Caucus can pass it and may cause events in northern Iraq to spiral out of control they know this and still do it anyway? I just don’t get it... Its sort of like a Senator confiding to some KGB agents of the Soviet Union during the Cold War that he will continue to pressure the U.S. President in order to undermine the Presidents requests to build up the armed forces so if they would just stick it out a little longer our country would fold first..

Sound familiar?

yes, and it’s a really redundant question at this point don’t you think? They’ve proven it over and over again.

Considering that this all took place during the Ottoman Empire, this might be what is intended. The Ottomans have not been in power for almost ninety years. What good is this resolution by Congress other than to cause problems for President Bush.

The timing is about the good news in Iraq. They want us to loose..they meaning the communists.

Take heed my brethren...we no longer have a two party system in America, we have the godless world Communist machine and their operatives vs Freedom loving people the world over.

So we agree that if this resolution passes the house and Turkey makes some random incursions into the Kurdish north which causes the death of any U.S. servicemen then every congressmen who voted AYE on this resolution will face murder charges Right?
