A group of 19 House Democrats yesterday pledged to build a congressional coalition to oppose a U.S. military attack on Iraq.

"Unilateral military action by the United States against Iraq is unjustified, unwarranted and illegal," said Rep. Dennis J. Kucinich, who predicted "dozens" more Democrats would join their group in coming days to oppose the Bush administration's plan for an attack. "The administration has failed to make the case that Iraq poses an imminent or immediate threat to the United States."

Dozens of House pack RATS? Whatever. It's going to take a helluva lot more than that.

"Fighting for oil and those dictatorships that prop up the politics of oil is not worthy of the loss of one more American life," she said.

A) We're not fighting for oil, but for something more valuable-- FREEDOM. B) If we were fighting for oil, Ms. Kaptur (nice Lefty name, BTW) would make sure she got an exemption should gasoline be rationed. That's the Commie way, the rules are always for someone else....

Any way to find out who the people in the cabal are?

I am looking to see if my *cough* representative is among them.

Thanks!

lOOK THE SOUL OF A RAT!

The Soul of the Worker

was born into the House of Labor. My father was a Teamster who drove a truck for thirty-five years. He died with his first retirement check in his pocket, uncashed. He and my mother raised seven children, of which I was the oldest. We lived in twenty-one different places by the time I was 17. Having a job doesn't solve all of a family's problems. One of my first jobs was at the Plain Dealer newspaper in Cleveland. As a copyboy I joined the American Newspaper Guild. Years later, working at TV 8, I belonged to AFTRA. Today I am a member of the cameraman's union, the IATSE of the AFL-CIO.

I heard Kucinich being inteviewed on the BBC this morning. To paraphrase, he says that Iraq has no weapons of mass destruction and (I guess, if they did) has no intention of using them against the US. Next comes this zinger: "Of course we all agree that Iraq should be disarmed."

Kunich is without a doubt the biggest pacifist I have ever seen. According to him, we should be negotiating with Al-Queda et al.

I think maybe Dennis has toys in his attic..., but maybe that's necessary to be a good liberal.

My favorite quote from the article.....

"Naked aggression is not the American way," said Rep. Marcy Kaptur, Ohio Democrat"

What is she talking about? Someone needs to adjust her medication!

THIS my friend kattracks... is an absolute GIFT...

God, make this be true.... PLEASE let them castrate themselves publicly over this... just before the elections, and right after bush dumps the "New data" on them at the moment where their course is irreversible and our victory over the evil doers is assured....

WHAT an opportunity... this is beyond our hopes... and lets hope they bravely "stay the course..." heh heh...
