Democrats Betraying 2006 Voter Mandate on Iraq and Immigration
Posted by bigloo under Blogroll, UncategorizedIt looks like the Democrats will have a short rule in DC. They talked tough about ending the war last year while campaigning, but it looks like the desire for political comfort won out over real action, after the Democratic Congressional Leadership’s capitulation on Tuesday to the Bush White House on Iraq War funding. Pelosi, Hoyer and company can try to bull us as much as they want, wrap it in thick rhetorical trimming, and spin, whining and lying, but they shamefully lost their nerve this week on the single most important political issue facing our nation today.
Democratic leaders seemed to have forgotten they recaptured majority status largely on angry voter backlash to Bush’s blood letting, failed and seemingly never-ending military occupation of Iraq. Also the Immigration bill compromise will come back to haunt Democrats in 2008. We should send all those idiots from the CBC(Congressional Black Caucus) home over this bill.
Its becoming increasing clear that current Democratic leaders don’t have the guts to be real leaders, and will be out of office after the next elections.

democrats are still full of crap, to say the least, they aint shyt.

The Democratic Leaders caved because Nancy Pelosi, Steny Hoyer, and Jim Clyburn are all Jews. As Jews, they all are US-Israeli citizens.
This action from the democrat led congress is a throwback to the days of Tom Daschle cowardess. Are these democrats or pussycrats or better yet punkcrats? The CBC has been reduced to abunch of wailing uncle-tommies, and aunt jamamas by falling for all that immigration crap. Charlie Rangel should be in a damn rest home with his old azz. I agree the Dems are finish. And were is Bam Boy doing all this?

Blonde, the Democrats’ losing their will on Iraq puts a bit of a tinge on the day though, I’d say they lied about Iraq, remmember these thugs voted to go to war in the first place.

The Democrats are a bunch of trolls. The CBC is clueless, nobody could possibly be that much of a moron even if they tried really hard. I said it before, the best thing to happen to the CBC is for God to strike one of their meeting and leave them all disabled 80% so they would need to be replace. This Immi-Open-The-Gate bill will allow illegals to tap into a pool of money for poor impoverish american, and who are the poor folks in america?
I like Mexicans, and have no problems with a sensible Immigration bill, but this comprise is ridiculous.
I can’t wait to vote Mel Watts azz out of the house.

I am delighted that they voted that way, because the Demo-Rats will cut and run if elected pres.
Repubs want to stay because they are made of sterner stuff! Stay the course!

This is why I dont vote for dumbocrats, they are weak on everything- from trade, to war, to healthcare. forget them, they are a has been party made up of weak spineless creeps- and one former Klan leader, a collection of old timey darkies and new political thugs bent on destroying our way of life. I agree, last year’s election was more about the creepy Republicans not knowing how to govern.

As a truly independent voter who had predominately voted for republicans most of my voting life. Their platform on abortion, gun control, social services, and many economic policies were ones that I agreed with. I voted for the current moron the first time. In the face of the obvious corruption, anti-American acts, and bad chess playing that accrued in the first 2 years showed at the very least incompetence. To beat all, there has been nothing “conservative” about the “conservative” party anymore.
That said I voted and supported candidates since 2003 for basically a few select reason. The I was against the war in Iraq since day one. The intel wasn’t jiving with the rhetoric. I also am a tree-hugging hippie when it comes to the environment. I also was attracted to the party’s appeal to the common man. While I am for fiscal responsibility, I know “tinkle down economics” is a travesty to generating a healthy economy. However, lets face it, the democrats came out ahead on the anti-war sediment in ‘06. they have shown no spine to stand against the propaganda machine of the current administration. Then on top of that they produce this crap immigration bill that puts us at even greater risk then we are already. The problem is the republicans are lining up to support it too. There is just no dam good choice again. logic says if i can’t vote on a candidate, I am going to have to endorsee a party and hope for the best.
The idea that a great leader will emerge as the wife of a former president is about as sound as the idea of the son of a former president being worth a dam. Voting for Hillary shows only that you have the skill of name recognition, a skill my dog has. If they run Hillary, most of us truly central voters will probably be forced to vote for some kind of change.

I’m trying to figure out how one can truly be an independently voter if he/she votes for republicans or democrats most of the time. The Republicans platform on abortion, gun control, social services, and many economic policies are blue prints for disasters. Lord, help us is a common man gets to be president. HRC is a sound idea on her own standards and I can assure you people didn’t vote for GW because of George Senior.
I have more than skill recognition and I’m sure your dog wrote this. I suggest that people listen to the candidate and not let one issue become a litmus test, which got us GW with his phony “Family Values Campaign”. The immigration bill is full of crap and I’m sure it will not pass as presented. I will support HRC until their is a consensus candidate, then I’ll decide.

Well, the Blonde_BombShell have returned and LordofLogic, you have been BombShelled. Welcome to our little space. We now have theGreatThinker, GopBrain and unapologetic-n-nasty. I wouldn’t make to many comments up in here about dogs, because theGreatThinker hates dogs. I’m with you Blonde, HRC’s resume talks for itself. I support Obama, but will vote for Hillary in a minute.
June 5, 2007 at 7:44 pm
Christ,
Stop sucking up to the Blonde Bimbo, but once she is right, the damn sorry azz Republicans don’t have a decent platform, and even Gop-No-Brain admits that. Hillary Clinton is smarter than most of those bozos running from both parties. “Independent” The last two fools who ran for President was a grass loving creep and the other looked like something from outer space. The IMMI bill is crap, but will be fixed, because Wal-Mart needs workers, and who in the hell do you propose cut your grass, not some tree loving nut who compares dogs to voters. Listen up buster, I’ll say it only once. Take your dog comparisons and go to hell.
Why sometimes I feel compelled to waste time reflecting on simple posts is beyond me, but some of these nuts need to consult with a local mental health professional, because their politics are too “far gone” for any more of my analytical assistance. Next..

oh hell fire….. nasty is on the move, can theGreatThinker be far behind. I have never known him to defend the Blonde.
