Noooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!! [Same link as posted on the front page.]
Just when I thought: "FINALLY! The marginally left political party has grown some balls!" They remind me that their collective centrist scrotum is devoid of any such gonad.
This is not how you fight a man who is a moronic, stubborn buffoon surrounding himself by other moronic, stubborn buffoons. You give him funding for two months, he will do the same shit again in two months. And then what? Now you have two months of blood on your hands. The blood of the troops, the blood of American civilians/mercenaries, and the blood of countless Iraqis.
This is where you draw the line in the sand. This is where you stop everything else and make sure that the majority of this country and a majority of the troops in Iraq get what they want - an end to this war, sooner rather than later. You cannot let this fucking egotistical shit of a leader get away with this crap.
He will not listen to you in two months. He will not listen to you in a year. He's not listening today. But the American People are. If you ask us to, we will show up in the millions. If you ask us to show our support of your efforts to end this disaster, we will come out in the millions. Why aren't you coming out and asking us to do our patriotic duty? Why aren't you asking us to bring the economy and the nation to a standstill until this man listens to us!?
Why aren't you being leaders?
Stop being the old Democratic Party and start being the god damn Progressives we voted into power in 2006.
