#4 Nancy Pelosi and Murtha are the gift that just keeps on giving to the Republican party. The obvious flaw in their strategy is that it is clearly in the interest of the Republicans if the Dems can not pass a war funding bill. As much as the Democrats might like to believe the press and their moon-bat base, the fact is that the majority of Americans do support the war. That's why when Dems try to pass bills to bring the troops home or to limit funding they get their bums handed to them in a bag - EVERY TIME.

So you would think they would just wrap up a nice package that they KNOW the president will sign and get quietly get the issue off the table befor the fall. Just putting extra GI benefits in there isn't going to fool ANYONE since most American's believe that GW Bush supports the troops.

It is only in the advantage of the Republicans if their bill does not pass or is vetoed by the president. You can only wonder if they are really as stooopid as they seem to be.

It's even more Rhetorical than that, it's really "When will WE (Voters) Learn, and NOT re-elect these slimeballs.

#6 They can't leave it alone, Woodrow Slusorong7967. Their base is the Progressives, not the centrist [Reagan] Democrats. Which is one reason why the swing to the center by the Democratic presidential candidate will be so amusing this fall -- s/he has so very far to travel, and so many speeches to unsay.
