A nonbinding, antiwar, anti-Iraq-surge resolution is despicable and meaningless!
Are the Democrats under the assumption that they were elected to simply assist the current administration in its crimes? What’s next, a nonbinding impeachment complete with pay raise and tenure?
Didn’t America vote for a change last November? How quickly the newly elected succumb to the gravity of glamour and apathy once their fannies hit the seats of power. We voted for the Democrats to restore democracy and to reverse the damage done by the appointed “decider” and his cronies.
It’s time to remind them just why they were elected. It certainly wasn’t to become part of the decider’s rubber-stamp brigade! Let them know this administration is anything but patriotic. It’s essential to a free democratic nation that the Military Commissions Act and both “Patriot” acts are repealed immediately.
Stand behind your elected officials, folks. They need your help and support to pass meaningful resolutions. Resolutions that’ll restore the checks and balances created by the founders of this nation. Anything less is simply not a free democracy.
