Today the cut, run, and surrender Socialist Democrats in the House managed to push through a $121 Billion appropriations bill that was in large part to supply emergency funding to the war effort. However, also attached to the bill was the condition that the US pull out of Iraq by the fall of 2008. They are essentially setting a surrender date. Also attached to this bill were loads of pork spending funding, that essentially was bribe money to coax hold outs to vote for the measure and apply a timeline for US withdrawal.
The bill, as President Bush initially said was to provide emergency funding for our forces in Iraq. Instead the dems decide to play political theatre and set this artificial deadline within a bill that is supposed to provide our fighting forces the necessary funding they need to conduct this war and bring us closer to victory. All the democrats are doing is attempting to cripple our commanders and fighting forces. They seem to think that if they can delay funding from being passed through that it will force President Bush to accept restrictions on our forces. The President said moments ago in a brief but fiery response, “That is not going to happen.”
Democrats have once again shown their will to undermine anything this President and our men and women in uniform do. They are playing politics with war. A war that is a continuing battle for civilization, thought most people are blind not to see it that way. It is the same story over and over. A victory for the President does not speak well for the Dems and their chances for power, so no matter if it causes us defeat and weakens our nation, they feel the need to do anything to undermine his efforts.
These are sick people that you people around this country have put into power now and their lust for political power is just swelling. Most democrats, especially the ones that voted for this measure and continue pushing items like this are an absolute, DISGRACE TO THIS COUNTRY. They are unpatriotic, you’re damn right I said, UNPATRIOTIC. Many of them are also borderline treasonous. They are doing nothing but giving aid and comfort to our enemy when they do things like this. The enemy we face sees this as a sign that American resolve is weakening.
Congressman John Murtha is one of these morons that plainly disgusting to listen to. With this bill he said,“You’re voting against supporting the troops if you’re voting against the money that goes to the troops…The Congress owes you the money you need to do the job, without any strings attached. Congress needs to get their business done quickly, get the monies we've requested funded and let our folks on the ground do the job." Can you believe this moron? This is the same SOB that has been preaching to stop funding the war over and over, and now with this measure and its hidden deadlines is trying to twist it around and say voting against it is voting against our troops. What a joke he and the rest of these dems are.
Fortunately the President will veto this measure, but the sad part is that it delays even longer the funding that our forces need to sustain operations. Sec of Defense Bob Gates has said that if funding is not appropriated by April 15, our forces and their families may start seeing serious disruptions. That seems to be exactly what the democrats want though unfortunately. You see, they said before they did not want to stop funding the troops, but running bills like this that have no chance of getting the President’s signature, they are doing just that. What’s even sadder now, is that if the funding does not come, the Democrats will turn around and say that they tried to fund the troops but the President vetoed it. It’s all political games folks and it is rather disgusting to watch.
Visit from the Enemy
Now to add to this, we have an enemy of the United States, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is coming to US soil to address the UN. Amazing that this guy, who is an Islamic Terrorist, and has spoken such harsh tones against the US and Israel, is able to come here freely to our soil. His rhetoric when addressing the UN will likely again be harsh toward the US. Like Boortz said in Nealz Nuze today, they he should be arrested and sent to Ghitmo while he’s here. Unfortunately you know that will ever happen. He will only be captured or killed when we finally face Iran on the battle field.
