More Proof The Anti-war Democrats Are Falling Apart

Here is more proof to back up what I believe to be truth, that the anti-war movement is falling apart. I’m still not sure the Democrat party was elected last November as a mandate the way the mainstream media believes, it’s referenced in this article below. I believed the Republicans lost do to the drumbeat of the culture of corruption. Jack Abramof and such, Mark Foley.As soon as they found out he was gay they turned it into a pedophilia case. Why did the left, who are supposedly so tolerant assume if Foley was gay he must be a pedophile? We later found out the pages were of legal age. Don’t forget George Allen and the makaka incident. This is why Republicans lost, not the war.

Of course now we have Murtha, an un indited co conspiritor to bribery, Harry Reid’s suspect land deals, Nancy Pelosi’s unclaimed finances, Hillary’s unclaimed charitable foundation ETC…. And nothing is mentioned about them.

Sorry, this was supposed to be about the Democrats and how their anti-war resolutions are falling apart. I just got a little carried away.

From breitbart.com:

Senate Democrats on Tuesday deferred debate on revoking President George W. Bush’s Iraq war authority, after failing to reach consensus on the best way to hasten the end of US military involvement there.

The Senate had considered taking up an amendment proposed by Democratic senators Carl Levin and Joseph Biden which would revoke the president’s 2002 authorization to wage war in Iraq.

The bill, one of several Iraq-related measure slated for debate, was to have been introduced as an amendment to homeland security legislation which went to the Senate floor Tuesday.

But Democrats decided to hold off on the de-authorization debate out of deference to the survivors of the September 11, 2001 attacks, some of whom had voiced concern that the domestic security legislation would get bogged down in a raucous floor debate over Iraq.

“The idea is not to do it on this bill because of the concerns of the 9/11 survivors and families,” Democratic Senator Russ Feingold told reporters.

Democrats, who were elected in November with a mandate to change the course of US policy in Iraq, are united in their desire to craft an exit strategy from the wartorn country.

Feingold said however that they are divided by “a variety of viewpoints” on how to achieve that aim. Various bills and amendments under discussion include reducing the number of troops in Iraq; setting performance benchmarks on the Iraqi government; and even cutting funding for military options in Iraq.

“There is a problem with disagreement about this war and what we should do — particularly about the funding issue,” Feingold told reporters.

He said however that Democratic differences will have to be ironed out quickly, since the Iraq question is likely to be next on the Senate’s agenda once work on the 9/11 bill is completed in the next several days.

“Disagreements will come and we’ll have to work them out,” Feingold said.
