Published May 24, 2007 in Democratic Congress.

On its way to the White House to be signed into law condemning us to months more of horror. Neville Chamberlain would be proud.

Bush just forced the Dems to pass out cups so he can pour the poison kool aid for the Republican party.

Boehner is crying for his dying political career. With this vote Repubs are cementing themselves in the minority even though they know the Nationals have a better chance of winning the world series than the surge has of working.

Our presence in Iraq makes the
violence worse not better. Al Qaeda is getting stronger from the money their rackets, kidnnapping rings - and I wouldn’t be surprised to find
out stupidly funneled American aid - while our Army is crumbling.

Record and Youtube the Republican gloating. They’ll be singing a different tune in the fall. They’ll either vote with Bush and resign themselves to leaving office with him or finally do the right thing in a cynical effort to save their jobs. Come November 08 they’ll wish they’d never said the things they said in the first half of this year. But it’s too late, they already have.

Unless of course we progressives decide it’s much hipper to abandon Dems because they can’t snap their fingers to stop 16 more Repub lemmings from jumping off the cliff with Bush just yet.

Hate to say it but Rush maybe right…the Dem leadership are cowardly spineless cretins..

Thank you Harry Reid et al for erasing 6 years of Republican malfeasance with one single vote….

Um, I’m a little confused. Perhaps Oliver could explain how Chamberlain, who spent half a decade negotiating peace agreements with Hitler and who steadfastly believed that the Nazis could be tamed just by giving them what they wanted … Oh, wait, nevermind. Bush = Hitler, he’s the real terrorist. My bad.

Even Mr. Chamberlain would have known better by this stage. He was naive, not stupid.

To clarify.

Actualy Nimmer’s countryman voted to appease vicious thugs. Our Congress voted to continue fighting vicious thugs.

Perspective!

I love the We Have Not Yet Begun to Fight spin the Democratics are tying to put on this. Attention: the war has been going on for 4, if not 28, years now. You’re only NOW beginning to fight?

Stop the Chamberlain bashing! Chamberlain’s appeasement policy had the very pragmatic goal of providing England with time to re-arm for the eventual and inevitable confrontation with Nazi Germany. England could not have fought Germany alone in 1938. When the Nazi’s invaded England’s ally Poland, Chamberlain’s England declared war, even though the re-armament program was not yet complete.
