The House of Representatives (213 Republicans and 43 Democrats) passed a nonbinding resolution in a 256-153 vote that praised United States troops, linked the Iraq war to the global War on Terror and rejected an "arbitrary date for the withdrawal or redeployment." However, 149 House Democrats, 1 Independent, and 3 Republicans voted against the proposal and in support of a "Cut and Run Strategy" for Iraq. In reality, the House Resolution squeaked by with about 63% of the vote compared to 93% of the Senate who voted on a similar proposal.

Here is what two of the House Democrats, Dumb and Dumber, said:
House Minority Leader, Nancy Pelosi, Democrat, California: "I will vote against this resolution because it is an affirmation of (President Bush's) failed policy in Iraq.....The war in Iraq has been a grotesque mistake .. stay the course? I don't think so, Mr. President"
Congressman Jack Murtha, the un-military hero Democrat from Pennsylvania ranted about the lack of success of our military, need for withdrawal, and compared Americans to Saddam Hussein:
- Rep. John Murtha (D-PA): "We can't win this." (Rep. John Murtha, Congressional Record, 6/15/06, p. H4028)
- Rep. Murtha: "We are causing the problem."(Rep.John Murtha, Congressional Record, 6/15/06, p. H4028)
- Rep. Murtha Claims Americans Are Driving Iraqis Out Of The Country, Just Like Saddam Hussein.
- Rep.Murtha: "Almost 900,000 people left when Saddam Hussein was there... The time we have been there, 900,000 people have left the county." (Rep. John Murtha, Congressional Record, 6/15/06, p. H4027) Source: GOP.Com
In the history of the world, every great society comes to an untimely demise because of ineffective leadership and whackos. Rome, for example, was destroyed from within by crazy inbred rulers, moral and social declination, and their own brand of political correctness. Unfortunately, it appears that America is going to be destroyed from within, too. Funny how history repeats itself.
Presently, America is strong and resolute. We have a good President. However.....
Jack Murtha, John Kerry, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Joe Biden, Dick Durbin and the rest of the left can mismanage how to use the military and undercut the President's war on terrorism. Ineffective "metro-males," Dhimmis, and outright enemies of the state will continue to work against American society and our core values.
It is this humble blogger's opinion that the Donk Lefti, Dhimmis, et. al., joined with politically correct entities such as the 9th Circus Court and ACLU, work against "Mom, John Wayne, and apple pie." One might surmise that the left wing and their politically correct agenda are chipping away at the very fabric of our great country.
Are we in deep kimchee? Do we not realize it?
