Just try to act surprised...

President Bush is seeking another $50 billion for Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere...

Elsewhere?

You might not have noticed... Lieberman-Kyl’s Iran amendment passes!

By a vote of 76-22, the Senate passed the Lieberman-Kyl amendment, which threatens to “combat, contain and [stop]” Iran via “military instruments.” Sen. Jim Webb (D-VA) called the amendment “Cheney’s fondest pipe dream” and said it could “read as a backdoor method of gaining Congressional validation for military action.” Backdoor - yet another jab at OUt readers...

Before the vote changes were made to the original amendment, paragraphs three and four were removed. This paragraph was also added at the end:

“Secretary of Defense Robert Gates stated on September 16, 2007 that “I think that the administration believes at this point that continuing to try and deal with the Iranian threat, the Iranian challenge, through diplomatic and economic means is by the preferable approach. That the one we are using. We always say all options are on the table, but clearly, the diplomatic and economic approach is the one that we are pursuing.”
Not Voting - 2

McCain (R-AZ)
Obama (D-IL)

For some reason - As if it matters.

Oh, and if you still think that Nancy Pelosi and the gang are going to suddenly stop lying to their constituents and suddenly pull us out - uh, you're wrong.

Same for all the Democrat Presidential candidates. Except Dennis Kesenich.

If you drive - you support the war.
