THIS is what we worked so hard for in 2006.
Democrats in the House voted down more funding for Bush's Iraq Quagmire today [1]. And in the process, when a Texas Republican started spewing right wing talking points, Rep. David Obey of Wisconsin smacked him down.
Here is the long overdue smackdown of Republican Bullshit in the House:
Have no illusions. The funding proposal will be back and probably will get passed in some form. Let's hope, though, it gets passed in a form that aims for withdrawal, not more surges. Slowly, the Democrats are re-learning how to have a spine.
