Crucial Iraq Vote: Just Say No
On Wednesday, House Democrats will once again vote on a bill to "end"
the occupation of Iraq - without actually cutting off the funds that
keep the occupation going.
Speaker Pelosi's latest plan is a "bridge fund" of $50 billion that
sets a "goal" of "redeploying" our troops by 12/15/08. Even if the bill
miraculously passes the Senate, Bush will veto it or take the money and
openly defy the redeployment "goal." So why is Speaker Pelosi once
again playing Bush's game?
90 Democrats have signed the "Peace Pledge" opposing any more Iraq
funds except to safely "redeploy" our troops by 1/09. But Pelosi's bill
gives Bush the money he wants without the strict enforceable deadlines
at the heart of the "Peace Pledge."
So we call on all "Peace Pledge" Democrats to honor their pledges by
voting NO.
A new study by Democrats themselves puts the economic cost of the Iraq
occupation at $1.6 TRILLION, or $21,000 per family. Every single penny
has been wasted - not to mention the human cost to Americans and Iraqis
and global hatred of the USA.
Why would Democrats want to give Bush one penny more?
All Congress has to do is Just Say No and refuse to provide any new
funds, and tell Bush to use existing funds to bring all our troops
safely home. Bush has plenty of money - besides all previous Iraq
funds, Bush just signed a Pentagon bill with a $40 billion increase.

The Heart and Soul of the GOP is Revealed: "How Do We Beat the Bitch?"
While campaigning in South Carolina, one of John McCain's supporters
asked the question that sums up the whole Republican attitude towards
the 2008 election: "How do we beat the bitch?"
So how did Saint John McCain respond? Did he denounce the vicious slur
and stand up for Washington-style "civility"?
Nope, he first tried to contain his laugh, then tried to make a joke of
it, and finally burst out laughing. And then he called it "an excellent
question." Oh really??
