Subject: RE: BS: Sheehan vs. Pelosi
Right, 282RA-ster...

The Dems could wipe the "Resolution" that got US in the mess off the books the day they reconvene... They could set a timetable to end the occupation on the day they reconvene... They could have a *no confidence* resolution on Bush's desk the day they reconvene...

All these things could be accomplished... Of course it would require some heavy lifting but they could be done...

How???

Do what the Repubs threatened to do in changing the 60 vote rule to cut off fillibuster...

(But, Bobert... The voters would think that too radical and would put the Dems out forever...)

Bull, the voters would respect them for having the courage to do what they were elected to do...

(But, Bobert... Alot of bad things would happen if the troops left...)

Bull, alot of bad things have allready happened and it doesn't matter if the US stays in Iraq for another 100 years, alot of bad things are going to happen after it leaves... The die was cast when Bush decided to invade Iraq... The rest is out of his hands...
