The Face(s) of Capitulation

Thu May 24, 2007 at 05:54:54 PM PDT

Today the United States House voted for Capitulation.  Republicans, joined by too many Democrats, voted for a war without end.  They voted for a blank check.

Not long ago we passed a bill through both the House and Senate fully funding our troops and their safe withdrawal from Iraq.

Then they capitulated.  They gave up.

Friends Dont Let Friends Drive Drunk

Congress took the keys for this war from the President.  Now they have given them back.

Who are these people?  I do not have time to list everyone.  Please add names in the comments section.

Roll Call from today in the HOuse.
Roll Call from the first time through in the House.

As I was putting this together the Senate voted.  Thank You Obama and Hillary for voting No.  To the 80 some Senators who voted for this, I hope you attend every soldier's funeral between now and the end of time.
