Democrats Lack Support to Force Vote on Pullout
.......Appears to me the republicans are speaking against the policies of Blush on this war just for the politics of saving their ass in the next election. However, it is all false if they won't support the Dems on getting the hell out. They should be called big time for their false politics........................................
