GOP Pulls Fast One... Tells Dems: Pull Troops Now? Okay, then let's vote!!!!! Tonight. 7 p.m. in House... Ultimate showdown...

The rats know they just got it handed to them.

Yep. That's why they're so mad. They know the GOP has painted them into a corner.

Murtha is going to vote against his own resolution apparently, under the guise that it was a Republican resolution.

The press will try to spin this, but what it boils down to is "House votes down resolution to withdraw immediately."

And it slaps the idiot Murtha down, hard.

[Skel]

Respect the gavel! :D

[workerbee]

McGovern: I don't know a single Dem who supports the Hunter resolution.

Unbelievable. This guy is a pig.

[JRjr]

Doesn't this mean that congress critters won't be able to take off early for their weekend. I'm sure our Sheila Jackson Lee will be put out over this. Love it!!

[Peach]

This is shocking! The Democrats are clapping and shouting down Rep. Duncan Hunter.

[LisaFab]

THis is getting wild. This might degenerate into one of those Japanese-type parlimentary fistfights!

I think censures will result.

[firewalk]

Why don't the democrats want to have a vote?

[LS]

Not that I can recall. I never, ever heard him do this. Maybe he did, but I didn't hear it.

[BlueStateDepression]

Dems want to vote on an OPEN ENDED inconclusive bill that is ambiguous at best.....they do NOT want to just have to COMMIT to one position OR the OTHER!

[michigander]

Ass about to be kicked.

Letter from a soldier...

[workerbee]

Hunter reading a letter from a soldier -- he's being booed and shouted down. TRAITORS!!!!!!!!!

[Hoboto]

Catcalls from the gallery! The US House sounds like Parliment!

GOOD! I want our Congressmen to show their true feelings. I'm sick of the "my good friend from across the aisle" crap.

[Adam-ondi-Ahman]

Wow, this is looking more and more like WWF Wrestling!

[Fishtalk]

Wow. Is anybody watching them? Here I am scaring the hell out of the dogs. Something about California Moonbats.

They really HATE for them to read the letters from soldiers, eh? Really, really bad PR.

[Peach]

Democrat: For 24 hours you have maligned a decorated war vet.

[processing please hold]

I just spoke to Landrieu's office, she said there will not be a vote tonight.

[Arizona Carolyn]

I LOVE Duncan Hunter!!!!! These dems are total a$$holes.

[nicmarlo]

THis is getting wild.

Isn't it, though?!

[AliVeritas]

House of Commons, Japanese, African slapfest.

Dems don't want to hear a response from a trooper.

Smack them... hard.

[GottaLuvAkitas1]

"The rats are going nuts."

I have never seen anything like this! This is totally out of control.
