Troop Pullout Vote Fails House 403-3

In a GOP engineered "stunt", a resolution proposed in the House to pull troops out immediately failed by a 403-3 vote. The Donks are whining that this was a "stunt" by the GOP that denied the opportunity for thoughtful debate. Actually, Ol' BC finds it quite clever. The Donks have been on the attack for some time calling for a pullout of troops from Iraq and the MSM has been giving them plenty of play on the issue. However, when the time came to go on record and vote to pull out, the vast majority pissed backwards. This adds to the speculation that the Donks really only care about criticizing Bush and anything he does. All indications by the vote are that the Donks don't want to run for reelection with an official "cut and run" vote attached to them. One may find that more of the mainstream Americans support the troops than the Donks would have you believe. They had their chance to put up - now if they would only shut up.

Just a thought.
