Oh boy...Bush will be speaking with military families surrounding him..

[jenmito]

Thus the delay. I just heard it on MSNBC.

[knowbody0]

1. looks like he's been crying

[valerief]

5. He's gonna get an earful from Hell O'Burden. That's why he's crying. nt

[Maraya1969]

6. I'd be crying right now if I weren't so damn mad at this veto.

[cmd]

26. Sounded like he'd been crying

I didn't watch, but heard it from the other room.

[SteppingRazor]

2. I'm shocked!

Shocked I tell ya!

:eyes:

[melody]

3. Evil, cynical monster n/t

[Turbineguy]

16. "OK, here's another good one...

So this Mother and Father walk into a funeral parlor and...."

[tk2kewl]

4. Is he going to wear his commander in chief costume

:puke:

[Fluffdaddy]

7. Time to play hardball as well

[notadmblnd]

8. trying real hard to lay on the guilt.

even has represenatives from Armed Forces lined up behind him.

[mrreowwr_kittty]

9. Oh looky....he's surrounded by troops and vets...

Bastard. Are they being bribed or coerced to be there?

[Auggie]

10. He keeps mentioning Democrats, but a couple of Repukes voted for the bill too

[shaniqua6392]

11. He had to hurry up and round up some military members

that actually think this war is a good idea. He is going to veto it anyway. Showdown time.

[NMDemDist2]

12. he wouldn't need an "emergency" funding bill if he'd been truthful in his budget

in the first place

asshole

[Hepburn]

13. Sorry, but I gotta say it:

Bush is a whore....and I totally resent him pimping what he wants by using military families in the background.

They have sacrificed enough without being used by this POS to try and slam a guilt trip on those who are more than DONE with his lies and the harm he has done to our nation, our troops, their loved ones and families and the Iraqis.

So most sincerely, I say to George Bush: Peddle your wares elsewhere ~~ I am NOT buying your faux tears and concerns, you lying POS.

[RaleighNCDUer]

14. Is that like Cheney walking out to the pitcher's mound with

wounded vets so the fans won't boo him?

[Singular73]

15. You dont want to stop funding for the troops?

Then dont frikken veto it, asswipe.

[City Lights]

17. Flyshit wants a "clean bill" to sign. eom

[SusanaMontana41]

18. So how do you like

democracy now, asshat?

I hate how he has politicized the military, using them as props to promote his obscene policies. God I hate hate hate this man.

[eleny]

19. What about the military who don't agree with him?

Do they matter?

[Fluffdaddy]

20. Nope

[jenmito]

22. Of course not...

THOSE ones he ignores or has arrested.

[ShortnFiery]

21. Let's hope and pray that our illustrious Democratic Representatives

maintain their courage.

This WAR must end. If we LOVE our troops and the average Iraqi Citizen's wellbeing, we'll END this Occupation by next Summer.

I thought it was the Alito Nomination which proved crisis, but that was peanuts. The stand our Representatives take NOW is for all the marbles, i.e., the viability of our democratic republic.

[Fluffdaddy]

24. For the first time in A LONG TIME, I'm proud of our Democratic Representatives

[Frustratedlady]

23. I wonder how long it took them to select his backdrop of people?

Talk about theatrics.

Even if they have the funds available, I would bet they won't be able to find them to pay the troops--active or reserve--or their families....or the vet hospitals, or the retirees....or....

They are going to be ornery.

[jenmito]

25. "It delays funding to our troops..."

Yeah, if he VETOES it!!!

[Hepburn]

27. Exactly....

...if he wants the money, then he better take it. PERIOD.

[jenmito]

29. He won't. And he'll STILL blame the Dems....

The Dems. better get their commercials ready-slamming Bush for not supporting the troops!

[DinahMoeHum]

28. The troops are his human shield.

n/t

[Fluffdaddy]

30. We MUST let our Democratic Representatives know we support their vote

And lets hit HARD all polls we see on this

[niyad]

31. do we know if these are real military families, or merely actors and props?

[jenmito]

32. I wouldn't put ANYTHING past this admin...

If they could show video of Bush's "Mission Accomplished" speech on the USS Lincoln and black out the "Mission Accomplished" banner, they could do anything.

[NastyRiffraff]

33. I thought it was illegal

for the military to appear in uniform in support of a political agenda. Anyone know the law on this?
