Senate panel votes against Bush on Iraq

WASHINGTON - The Democratic-controlled
Senate Foreign Relations Committee dismissed
President Bush's plans to increase troops strength in
Iraq on Wednesday as "not in the national interest," an unusual wartime repudiation of the commander in chief.

The vote on the nonbinding measure was 12-9 and largely along party lines.

"We better be damn sure we know what we're doing, all of us, before we put 22,000 more Americans into that grinder," said Sen. Chuck Hagel (news, bio, voting record) of Nebraska, the sole Republican to join 11 Democrats in support of the measure.

Thank You Democrats. With this vote alone to me this was the result of hard work to you elected and start on a course for true change in this country. I know this is just a start the whole fight's not over yet to toss out Georgie's next plot for disaster on this issue but it's a strong start.

Thank You and continue to hold those treasonous anti-American bastards' feet to the fire.

1. Alright - bout time

What other repukes are on that commitee? At least Hagel has some sense. He is a real thorn in * side.
