President Bush said Saturday that a Democratic plan to set an end date for the war gives "our enemies the victory they desperately want." Who are the enemies? The Iraqi people? This is a civil war, the Iraqi people want the US out. They are fighting for their own freedom.
Bush chided Democrats for taking a spring break without finishing work on the bills, and said they'll be to blame if troops have to go without necessities as a result of the standoff.Unlike the president who breaks whenever he feels like it. Our Democratic Senators gave him two bills before they took their break. He can blame them all he wants for troops going without neccesities, this has been a Bush failure since day 1!
"I call on members of Congress to put partisanship on hold, resolve their differences, and send me a clean bill that gets our troops the funds they need," Bush said.Partisanship? Do you even know what that means, Mr. MyWayOrTheHighway? Maybe Bush and his cronies could have put aside their partisanship when they fire attorneys?!?
On Saturday, the president agreed with Democrats that "the American people voted for change in Iraq." But he said that is what is happening now, under a new war plan he announced three months ago to send extra U.S. troops to Iraq to calm Baghdad and Anbar Province and to install a new war commander, Gen. David Petraeus.I voted for an end to the war, not a new course, not extra troops being sent to Iraq.
Let's make no mistake about Iraq. It is no safer. Bush wants to push this off to the next administration. God help us if a Republican is voted in again.
