Senators seek support against Iraq surge

Best line of the day: Senator Biden said that the VP doesn't know what he's talking about and that everyone knows it!

Vice hasn't been right aboout one single thing regarding this war, or anything else we can think of, right off hand.

Vice thinks that any Resolution against the war will embolden "our enemies." Yeah right, like the ill-advised actions, of this administration, do not only emboldened "our enemies," but have made enemies out of people who weren't our enemies before this insanity began.

Who, in D.C., will have the guts to rid us of these fools?

Senators seek support against Iraq surge - Yahoo! News:

WASHINGTON - Two leading Senate Democrats sought to build support Sunday for a bipartisan resolution opposing President Bush's war strategy in Iraq, cautioning that division over whether it goes far enough could spell defeat.

'The worst thing we can do is to vote on something critical of the current policy and lose it,' said Sen. Carl Levin (news, bio, voting record), D-Mich., who chairs the Senate Armed Services Committee. 'The public doesn't support his policy, a majority of Congress doesn't support his policy.'
'
If we lose it, the president will use the defeat of a resolution as support of his public policy,' Levin said.

The new Democratic-led Congress heads this week toward its first vote on the war, with the Senate Foreign Relations Committee beginning debate Wednesday on a resolution condemning Bush's proposal to send 21,500 more troops to Baghdad and Anbar province. A vote could come as early as that same day.

The proposed nonbinding resolution, which is largely symbolic and would have no affect on money for troops, states that 'it is not in the national interest of the United States to deepen its military involvement in Iraq, particularly by escalating the United States military force presence in Iraq.'
