Why no comment on the Dems reaction to Bush's escalation of the war?

This forum seems to be swarming with Dems, does it not destroy your faith in the political process when your Party is elected with a mandate to get the troops home, then seems happy to go along with further escalation.

Time to wake up, Young lives are worth more than jobs for the politicians.
WE are achieving nothing in Iraq other than assisting the setting up of an Islamic republic, is that worth one more young soldiers life??
