When are we going to focus our energy on the republican obstructionists who refuse to vote for a timetable to end the occupation?

The question of whether or not legislators support an exit from Iraq is not precluded by this one supplemental that passed. All legislators have to do is vote in sufficient numbers for a bill that contains timetables. Nothing has changed in that equation and the heat should be on these legislators who are still standing in the way of a timetable bill; this time without any cover at all from the question of whether the vote is 'hurting the troops'.

Let's see some fire here under the republicans. The majority of our party is STILL in favor of setting an exit date from Iraq. It's the republican minority which is blocking legislation that contains timetables. THEY should receive at least as much of the nasty criticisms folks here are foisting off on Democrats.
