More Proof the Fringe Is Out of Touch,

Hey folks,

First of all, sorry for being so late. To all the OPNers that wake up, get their coffee, and join me here daily, I truly apologize. Got up late, Had to go. But I’m here now, What a day this was.

All the build up. All the promises. Then, the vote. Failed did the LWL. Failed BIG time they did. This is even more proof that the Far Left Fringe is so far out of touch, that their own party will not back them.

The timetable debate is over. At least officially. They voted for a documented timetable to withdraw troops by years end. This with all those on the Left and some on the Right, continuously hammering the President to "Bring them home." The Left asked for a debate and vote. The Right GAVE them what they asked for. It FAILED the Left BIG time.

The vote in the Senate? 93-6. The six were Democrats. Then today, the house voted 256-153, with 42 Democrats braking ranks to vote it down. This is a BAD day for the Left Fringe. Great day for the Right.

House Majority Leader John Boehner, R-Ohio, echoed the President saying,

"Achieving victory is our only option. We must not shy away."

Of course House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi was towing the "Party" line saying,

"'Stay the course' is not a strategy, it's a slogan," then she called the war "a grotesque mistake."

Now you KNOW that the LWL and the MMD (Mass Media Drones} are going to continue to call this an engineered debate and vote, 144 days before midterm elections that will decide who runs Congress. Yet even though they "feel" this way, 42 Democrats voted Nay. That has to be one of the biggest divides on the Left in years. With 144 days to go, they better get together.

As I have pointed out to you in the past, they have some BIG problems. Oh, some STILL believe that they already have it won. But as you can see, forget just this day, but this has been a bad month for them.

Lets see,
1- al-Zarqawi’s death.
2- more raids, more top of the enemies dead or captured.
3- That "Letter" You know, the one they are trying to prove is fake. The one al-Zarqawi says WE are winning and him and the terrorists are losing.
4- Some on the Left asking Hillary NOT to run. Hoping on Al Gore, who said, "I’m not running."
5- Many who are starting to be embarrassed by and do not want Nancy Pelosi as Speaker of the House. Even if they do win.
6- Clear cases of corruption being ,,uh,,alleged. Nancy Pelosi calling for one of their own, who happens to be Black, to resign from office, upsetting the Black Caucus.
7- California
8- Now this vote that puts them on record.

Not exactly in this order folks, just as they came off the top of my head. But needless to say, not a good month.

So why did these 42 Democrats brake ranks? The answer is so simple that it really needs not to be verbalized. But to those that need to hear it, even if they do not want to accept it, 144 days to election time. Many, if not all, of these are up for re-election. Then of course you have what I told Ron about yesterday, not all those on the Left are Looney. They understand that this Far out agenda is NOT going to win any elections. Maybe there is hope at the end of the day.

As for the vote about leaving Iraq what really annoys the democrats and many liberals is that they were unable to change the wording and meaning to something that they could deny if pressed on their stand on leaving Iraq.

Remember I voted for it then I voted against it then I am SOOooo confused, what was I saying?

The bottom line was that the democrats wanted to change the wording in order to cover their behinds.

When you have Jack Murtha running around claiming stuff when all one has to do is see that his version of the facts do not hold war then one should be able to make a correct judgement rather than let others make your decisions for you.

Hey Sam,

Your right.

“As for the vote about leaving Iraq what really annoys the democrats and many liberals is that they were unable to change the wording and meaning to something that they could deny if pressed on their stand on leaving Iraq.”

The Republicans have starting using their power to put the LWL on record. When It comes down to the brass tax, and you can cut through the rhetoric, you see that there are some on the Left that talk the talk, but realize to walk the walk would cost them more than they are willing to lose.

“Remember I voted for it then I voted against it then I am SOOooo confused, what was I saying?”

LOL

“The bottom line was that the democrats wanted to change the wording in order to cover their behinds.”

These are the games I keep pointing out. Like it has been said of those on the Right, “If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, you can call it a pig, but it is still a duck.”

“When you have Jack Murtha running around claiming stuff when all one has to do is see that his version of the facts do not hold war then one should be able to make a correct judgement rather than let others make your decisions for you.”

This is one of their biggest problems. They STILL have not figured out that most Americans CAN think for themselves. They do not want to be told what to think, they want to be told you {Politicians on either side} are going to deal with whatever it is.

I think one of the problems is that the left have been lying so long they ACTUALLY believe their own “Version” of what reality is. Therefore, they fail to see that reality is most Americans are NOT on their side. Not on the War, economy, taxes, or just about anything else. Instead of trying to fix it, they just “stay their course” hoping for a different outcome.
