1) I COMPLETLEY agree with your language of "occupation" ... I have refered to it, accurately, as such for a couple years now ... I also have used the language of how the Rs in congress have been completely SPINELESS over the last six years to this president (a president and VP who needed congressional oversight more than any others in our history), in particular regarding Iraq ...
2) You are right to be cautious in assuming that just because these jerkoffs are now finally speaking out, does not mean that they will do what is right with their votes in September ...
3) IMO, the difficult part of this is the senate getting that veto proof margin ... I think you WILL see a good number of house Rs jump ship, with the 08 elections staring them in they eyes, but frankly, all that does is make for better perception of the measure ... The Ds can get it done in the house with or without the Rs ... The senate, however, needs 18 Rs, (Lieberman will NOT break ranks with Bushco yet) to get that veto proof margin ... I could see 7 or 8 Rs breaking ranks but 18 ...
I don't know ...
4) The MSM will carry the R's water, so like it or not, THEY will get whatever credit they stake out, the Ds WILL be painted negatively in some way, at the time ...
5) History WILL be re-written ... It will, just as Ronald Reagen is now known as one of the greatest presidents of all time, the conservatives WILL lie low on this, wait it out a while, find a way to blame the mess on liberals, democrats, the Iraqis, the UN ... Make no mistake, again, with the MSM carrying water, 10, heck, even 5 years from now, this will NOT be the republican party's responsbility ...
Just as it is Clinton's fault 9-11 happened, as bizarre as it is to blame him for not doing enough after the first WTC bombing, despite the actual bombers being caught, brought to trial and brought to justice, despite that the great Ron Reagan cut and run after the Embassy/Barracks bombing during his term ... Despite them having actually created OBL ... Despite the fact that that piece of garbage still draws air to this day, and somehow this president is keeping us safe and "fighting them there terrorists" ...
In this same way, what responsibility the Rs own will not be held to them, and some responsibility that the Ds do not have, WILL be held to them ...
