Summed Up Nicely
There was an article on RealClearPolitics discussing what a bad week it has been for Abu Musab al Zarqawi, who seems to have escaped the jaws of death once again. A bad week for Zarqawi means a good week for us.
Anyway, at the end of the article is a very nice summation of the Murtha situation [ more on that here ]. I very much enjoyed it and will share it with you here:
Showing more backbone and more brains than they customarily do, House Republicans called for a vote on immediate withdrawal from Iraq. It failed, 404-3. Democrats who’d applauded the introduction of Murtha’s resolution whined it was dirty pool for Republicans to make them vote on his bottom line.
“It’s a trap,” a Democratic strategist told Newsweek’s Eleanor Clift. “If the party comes out for a unilateral six month withdrawal, that would become the issue for 06, and they (Republicans) would kill us again.” Democrats like to make antiwar noises for their moonbat base, but were unwilling to cast a vote that could hurt them with swing voters. They were too cowardly to be forthright cowards.
