The new Democrats are foundering on their own shoals or hanging on their own petards when it comes to the Iraqi War. They voted for it and funded it. Now they are saying that it isn't going well, we don't like it, we don't support it, we don't like what you are doing,but we don't have any better ideas or plans. A simple translation seems to be, “We don't care what happens afterwards, just withdraw, retreat, or surrender”. What a truly sad state of affairs. And what an incomparable sense of history coupled with political myopia. Nancy Pelosi is probably hoping that Nicole Smith will stay on the front page for another month.
They are so enamored with the prospect of winning the White House in 2008, that they are incapable of eny cogent thinking about what we shoud do or not do about Iraq. Above all, avoid risky votes!
No doubt, their primary agenda is to reverse the Bush Tax Cuts, protect earmarks for loyal Ds to dispense, and pursue fund raising.
Was it Nero who fiddled while Rome burned??
