SHAME! Blood on your hands, "Yes" voters.

You are "supporting the troops" by KEEPING them there. SHAME!

Enjoy your holiday with your families! How many more will be broken because of your vote?

I really thought he'd do better. If only we had someone better to replace him with. I wouldn't say the state party is as strong as it needs to be, frankly.

Who needs you and your worthless vote when it counts.

paints in a bad light the folks who will vote No.

how are they voting? Anyone know?

Oh... you mean those meaningless things the President can ignore and still spend the money as HE sees fit?

this is a Republican war.

override a veto, so they made a down payment instead. Their complicity is indisputable.

Reid is the last speaker - now it's going to a vote.

nt

Oh well, at least one of my senators did the right thing.

How come my CSPAN dealie says "Live"? I'm so confused. :silly:

This is the roll of speakers who have announced they will be voting yes. To "support the troops" and other right wing talking points.

Assholes.

and remember internet is being watching and or deleted these days so who knows what they hear these days.

:hi:

Murray
Cantwell
Dicks

:argh:

Reid will "never give in". Funny as hell!!!

:rofl:

They're voting on THIS bill and he goes all Churchill on us ---

Funny shit.

unbelieveable what BS!!! we have to voice our outrage, no more keeping us on the back burner!!!

never give in...bullshit...

they had * by the balls and they ran the other way. unbelieveable and awfully sad, what they are doing to these troops, we are there for lies. What don't they get?

don't they understand?? Maybe we should consider sending over a math tutor to offer some refresher courses.

Have to get home for holiday, you know.

they are home. Disgusting truly disgusting.

I wonder how much of the $98B her war profiteer husband will rack up?

She needs to recuse herself from these votes. Seriously.

just name recognition. I was hoping the other candidate would stomp her DINO ass, but not to be. I forget her name, I'll find it.

:-(

whether it's a progressive celebrity, a high profile Democratic political figure or the like. Not that I'm suggesting he run for the seat, but someone with the stature of Al Gore (who possesses both of the above qualities) would be needed to defeat her in a primary. She's got powerful friends on both sides of the aisle and she's as entrenched as anyone I've ever seen in politics.

On the other hand, at least she's no Joe Lieberman.

But her opponent didn't stand a chance.

This week is our second quarter 2007 fund drive. Democratic
Underground is a completely independent website. We depend on donations
from our members to cover our costs. Thank you so much for your support.

And upon these, and all the hands who voted for this travesty.

May history damn you all past my ability to do so.

Democrats tried to get a timetable, but Bush vetoed it. Bush would keep the troops there regardless of this vote.

I would have sent him the same bill with the deadline a week earlier.

on this Memorial Day Weekend because of this? They will never be able to wash away the blood on their hands. They let the country down in a major way today. They are just too stupid to see it right now.

He refuses to end the war, so there isn't much Congress could have done. Unless he backs down, this war won't end.

They both voted against the war in the first place.

That makes no sense.

"Rove Seeks Challenger to Landrieu

Without fanfare or national media attention, White House strategist Karl Rove went to Louisiana the weekend before last to woo State Treasurer John Kennedy (D) to the GOP and into the 2008 Senate race against Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-LA).

Republican insiders see Landrieu as the most vulnerable Democratic senator up for reelection next year, but with none of the GOP members of the Congressional delegation stepping up to the plate, party strategists are looking elsewhere. Kennedy has good poll numbers statewide and would be a formidable challenger to the Senator."

I hope everyone does the same in their states. These people need to feel the SHAME for not standing up for our troops!

bye bye RW stoolies.

I want to see how my Senators voted.

Did she dig up Herbert Hoover to write it? Pathetic.

I have alot of respect for Carl Levin. That's why I was profoundly dissapointed in his vote today and the weak rationale he gave for it. If the Dems can't do anything to end this war, maybe the Democrats should just go the fuck home and stay there until it gets so fantastically mind-blowingly shitty that the Republicans are forced to bring the troops home by angry mobs with torches and pitchforks. In the absence of a draft that beings the war home to more people, God knows when that will happen.

It's all up to the Republicans. That was the message from all the Dems voting for this bill I heard on C-Span2. How long can they keep kicking the can down the road? When will they decide to fight? Does anyone really think they will have a veto proof majority to end the war in the fall? If they're LUCKY they'll have a veto proof majority for toothless "benchmarks."

End the fucking war already. Shut down the fucking government like the Republicans did.
