Just got a letter from Rep Chet Edwards - D-TX on DSM

[Laura PourMeADrink]

With Democrats like this, you might as well have a Republican. Excerpt from a letter I received from Chet Edwards - D-TX:

" I supported President Bush when Congress voted on authorization to use force in Iraq. Before making this decision, I conferred with the President, consulted with Pentagon officials and spent hours of thought and prayer on the prospect of military action. There was no single piece of intelligence that let me to this conclusion. While I understand your concerns about the Downing Street Memo, it largely reveals what we already knew -- that President Bush was deeply concerned about Saddam Hussein very early in his Presidency and that military options were being considered and evaluated. The statement that "intelligence and facts were fixed around the policy" could be interpreted in multiple ways, some alarming (e.g. false intelligence was being created) and some innocuous (e.g. intelligence and facts that supported the policy were being collected to present an argument that supported the policy). In any case, it is a subjective statement by an outside observer and provides no proof of underhanded deeds."

4. Well, There's Another One Down Here In Florida!!!

His name is Bill Nelson!!

I'd say that the Democrats have some SERIOUS SERIOUS SERIOUS work to do, even if they want to win in 2006.

Democrats are being kicked and rolled on EVERY SINGLE decision or idea that comes from the WH, even WHEN there is obvious culpability and crime being committed by "the corrupt ones"!

5. Wonder why Dem's LOSE more seats as time goes by??

Its ass clowns like this that can't see the forest for the trees.Love that quote: "There was no single piece of intelligence that let me to this conclusion."

NO SHIT SHERLOCK,because it was all LIES and BS--but being the good little Lemmings that you and a shit load of other DEMS are you voted for Bush to start bombing innocent people.

The bottom line with 99.99% of you asses is their lives didn't mean JACK SHIT,you were just thinking about re-election and the ramifications if all went well in Iraq and you voted against it.

I stopped reading as soon as I got to the part where he says: "I...spent hours of thought and prayer on the prospect of military action."

I call BS on his lying ass..

8. AAAAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!

"and some innocuous (e.g. intelligence and facts that supported the policy were being collected to present an argument that supported the policy)"
Cherry picking 'intelligence' to support a false premise, to lie the nation into an illegal war, is innocuous?
And dems want to restrict the ownership of firearms? :spray:
