H Con Res 63 is a non-binding resolution. The problem is there is talk that this vote sets up cutting off funds to the military. When they had the floor debate in the House and gave all members a five minute period to offer a speech, Representative John Kline (R-MN) gave a compelling speech. He is a Viet Nam Vet and his son is currently serving in Iraq. I believe he is a Marine and his son is in the Army. The link on my name is for a page that has his full speech. It is not short but it will warm your heart. I hope Rep John Kline is as sincere as the speech would imply.

This has me so upset I can’t even blog about it. They have effectively sent a message to the enemy that they can do whatever they want without consequence. It’s put our troops in an untenable situation.

Fortunately, the military doesn’t seem to be listening to them.

I think the dems have brought about their own demise with this. The American people won’t stand for surrender and the dems are completely misreading what the public wants.

I am just sad about the whole thing. What is going on with our country? When did we become weak? I do not agree with a lot of Bush’s policies, but the Dems are just nuts.

Thank Nancy Pelosi in a few years when terrorist attacks are a common part of our daily lives.

PS. Did you see her smug smile when she slammed the gavel? pathetic
