there were two amendments that served a purpose yesterday and we had strong support for one written in hopes of pulling over some republicans which even still wasn't going to pass.

But even moreso is the sense that the WAR ISN'T THE ONLY FRICKING ISSUE OUT THERE. Democrats have done me very proud even when it came to many issues including that fricking gay-marriage amendment and the estate tax. And that's just the past 2 weeks.

Don't blind yourself by focusing on just one thing. We are making a difference in many ways. Was I disappointed in yesterday's vote - a bit, but I knew that Carl Levin has been a strong ally in trying to end this war and his amendment was just as valid because it would have still forced a timeline. But this is the democratic party and this is the DU GD/GDP posters that if we don't get our way we just whine whine whine.
