CNN Situation Room: So Mitch McConnell is saying that "this is itt...the last chance for Maliki."

[Skidmore]

That "you can't ignore the people in a democracy." How rich. He wants to give *'s plan a chance to work, then it's over. Mitchie wants to kick the can down the road to buy time for the Republics at the next election. This is the most cynical political ploy ever devised by the Republics...the worst in history. More deaths for Republic votes is what they are hoping.

Time for the people to roar back.

1. He's trying to have it both ways

Support the Idiot in Chief while pretending not to ignore the will of the voters.

2. Good post Skidmore -

It is the question isn't it - The kids that die now, in this "surge" - against all reason - won't that constitute negligent homicide - for this administration.

I think the "war" people better be prepared to answer that question now cause it will be asked shortly by many of us.

Indeed, a good post.

3. I swear, the media gives plans for Iraq more chances than a cat's nine lives.

4. Keep moving the goal posts, you RW fool. Your clock is running out.

What a jerk.

5. He's running in 08; if only we could get rid of him.

6. i didn't think it would be possible to get rid of his partner in crime--

Anne Northrup, so maybe we can hope to give him the boot, too

7. Fuck that! The Repugs are trying to kill the minimum wage bill

Talk about THAT, Leslie!

[Bobbie Jo]

8. McConnell knows it will be a disaster....

He's just too much of a coward to take a position. This is precisely why we're in this god awful mess. Ole Mitch is an intolerable do-nothing jerk. Just let him know when it's safe to come out. No doubt he'll be the first one to run his mouth when his corporate buddies need a favor or a tax break.

9. I thought Bush said Iraq was a sovereign

nation.

10. Yep......last chance.....until the next one, that is. nt

[JohnnyLib2]

11. Follow the money (he does). He's angling remain in power

when Bush is gone.

Thanks, Skidmore, the spottlight really needs to be on Mitch.
