House Dems Plan Simple "No"To Bush On Iraq
— House Democratic leaders said today that the Iraq war resolution scheduled to be debated next week would be limited to President Bush’s plan to dispatch more troops to Baghdad, leaving any controversial decisions over war spending for a later discussion.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Democrat of California, and other party leaders met with members of the Democratic caucus for more than an hour today to discuss the framework of the first major debate over Iraq since Democrats took control of Congress last month. The three-day debate is set to begin next Tuesday.

1. It's Bush vs. America - and Bush wins
This guy sums up my disgust with the Democrats' appallingly feeble response to The mandate they were handed last November better than I ever could.

Shame on you, Mz. Pelosi. Shame on the rest of you "eunuchs". The American people didn't put you in office to simply tell this Administration that we don't like his policies. We've been doing that for years now. We want our children back home and the criminals that currently occupy our mansion on Pennsylvania Avenue behind bars where they belong. It's time to put the good of the country ahead of your political careers for once and finally do the right thing.
