Democrats Still Playing Iraq Games
Senate majority leader, Harry Reid (D-VA), announced that the Senate will face more votes about Iraq in the coming weeks.
Didn’t the Democrats fail at this a few weeks ago? Yes they did.
Here’s an interesting passage from the ABC News website:
While the measures are unlikely to pass, the announcement comes as party leaders are under fire by many liberal supporters for passing legislation that funds the war through September.
There you go: Democrats are pandering to liberal whiners and complainers, as they always do.
What happens if we pull out of Iraq as liberal anti-war nuts and many Democrats say they want to do? Peace? The end of terrorism against the Iraqi citizenry? Not likely.
If we leave Iraq, the overwhelming odds are that the entire nation will descend into chaos. Terrorism and bloodshed will reign against the populace. Terrorists will be emboldened by their “victory” against the United States, using Iraq as a platform for further conquests. Civilians will be conscripted into the terrorist’s army meaning that instead of fighting several thousand terrorists, we will have to contend with millions of soldiers.
What Al Qaeda wants is control–and the Democrats are more than willing to give it to them. Or are they?
You see, there is no telling what the Democrats really want. Do they want us to pull out of Iraq? Or are they posturing in order to pander to their vocal liberal base because they know nothing will result?
If there is no chance of getting anything passed, then the Democrats can be as outlandish as they want to be without regard to reality. Their liberal base, as gullible and stupid as they are, will be satisfied with the DFL’s hollow symbolism. Perhaps not completely satisfied, but satisfied enough continue showering the Democrats with votes.
Thus the Democrats maintain the liberal support they so desperately need by engaging in symbolic gestures that they know are futile. They sound like frauds to me.
