Presiden Bush yesterday was at it again trying to urge Democrats to pass a $100,000,000,000.00 spending bill.
I smell the fear card again…..
Congress needs to put partisanship on hold, needs to get rid of all the politics right now, and send me an emergency war spending bill that I can sign, that gets our troops the support they need and gives our commanders the flexibility they need to complete this mission,”
Good thing we aren’t using the troops as a straw man too. I like how all of a sudden he gets to say when D.C. can play politics.
“The American people expect the leaders in Washington to find common ground, but they also expect the Congress and the White House to work together to make sure our troops get funded, quickly. We should not legislate defeat in this vital war.”
So he said that right, but then “Bush also served notice that at a meeting Wednesday with congressional leaders he will not negotiate with Democrats”
I guess working together has a different meaning to Harvard MBA’s?
He was chalk full of one liners yesterday though. Whipping out all the goodies.
“If we do not defeat the terrorists and extremists in Iraq, they won’t leave us alone,” he said. “They will follow us to the United States of America. That’s what makes this battle in the war on terror so incredibly important.”
Man, he has got some balls doesn’t he. Is it an election year that I don’t know of?
And in closing I bring you this lovely nugget:
“Our troops face depraved and determined enemies, enemies that could just as easily come here to kill us.”
You wont get an arguement from me on that last one George…
