It is rediculus to attach timelines or performance measurements to war funding. I suspect we will need to remain in Iraq for years to come, we cannot allow funding to be an impediment to our noble cause.
You're very funny, in a scary sort of way.

Yeah, like that's been said so many times... Is this a strawman, hyperbole or ad hominem or just plain old bullshit? I get confused with all the different wacky tactics people use to prevent them from having to discuss the actual issues.

That's crap.

Funny though, because you've used the argument that the Democrats voted for the war at the beginning. Did their votes sabotage the war?

I Can't Stand It I Know You Planned It
But I'm Gonna Set It Straight, This Watergate
I Can't Stand Rocking When I'm In Here
Because Your Crystal Ball Ain't So Crystal Clear
So While You Sit Back And Wonder Why
I Got This Fucking Thorn In My Side
Oh My God, It's A Mirage
I'm Tellin' Y'all It's Sabotage

Su,Su,Su, So Listen Up 'Cause You Can't Say Nothin'
You'll Shut Me Down With A Push Of Your Button
But I'm Out And I'm Gone
I'll Tell You Now I Keep It On And On

"Cause What You See You Might Not Get
And We Can Bet So Don't You Get Souped Yet
You're Scheming On A Thing That's A Mirage
I'm Trying To Tell You Now It's Sabotage
Why; Our Backs Are Now Against The Wall
Listen All Of Y'all It's A Sabotage
Listen All Of Y'all It's A Sabotage
Listen All Of Y'all It's A Sabotage

Beastie Boyzzzz
