Comments on: Senate Backs Iraq Pullout Deadline
Votes 50-48 To Keep Withdrawal Language In War Funding Bill
- There are some in the world that have always hated us and always will.
There are far more people and governments who love us when we live up to our principles and hate it when we don't.They believe in our principles and hate the way we say 1 thing and do another.
People notice when we change course. Most of the world was with us in Afghanistan and will be with us again if we live up to our potential and change the destuctive course that we're on.
Adlai Stevenson said "Our strength lies not in our military armaments alone, but in our principles and their universal appeal to all men struggling to breathe free."
Other than in the spiritual realm,there's nothing that the world wants more than a "government of the people, by the people, and for the people that shall not perish from the earth." Most people know if it permanently perishes here they could lose it or perhaps never see it where they live. - Reply to this comment
- Good night fellow patriots. Please continue the good fight to defeat the fascist Bush administration. Their impeachment and trials are near, as is the restoration of The Constitution of the United States of America, and rule of law, to this great land.

If you can prove that, then you might have something to stand on.
but until then and as is stands, he has more power than either the Senate or the House of Reps..
And he knows it.
Its party line politics. - Reply to this comment

How many more of Bush's failed plans should Americans have to suffer before we put a stop to the madness and come to the realization that Bush doesn't know what he's doing and never did?- Reply to this comment
- This is all part of the process. This will certainly get vetoed but Bush is on notice now and do not think that he will not change his behavior. If he doesn't, his fellow Republicans will join with the Democrats to force him to follow the Constitution and give Congress a say. Those that cry about this are apparently against our form of government? Because this is how it is supposed to function.

- "ST, I'm afraid the WHOLE LOT of them are nothing but SNAKES! Bush has hopefully dealt the REPUBLICAN PARTY a FATAL BLOW. Yes, I agree we need two or even MORE parties in this country, as long as NONE of them are REPUBLICONS!"

Unfortunately, this is mostly true. And I agree, if we could have more than two viable parties it would be far better, I would like to see three or four.
Of course, when I was talking about the Republicans I wasn't talking about the current fascists, I was speaking of the possibility that any loyal American Republicans left might reclaim their party and once again mold themselves after the party of Lincoln and conventional conservatism. But you are probably right, they may have to change their name no matter what.
But we do need at least two parties, watching each other if only for political reasons, to keep corruption from becoming even more rampant than it is today.
Of course there is one way to virtually wipe out most political corruption overnight - public financing of campaigns, and strict laws against lobbying, which is simply legalized bribery.
