Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D - Calif.) and gang have come up with a plan to pay for Iraq, which includes a plan to bring the troops back home. The White House has already exclaimed that they will veto this legislation even through it grants President Bush the much needed funding he has asked for Iraq. Sticking to his guns, the President will not allow Congress to set a timetable for Iraq. Supporters of the notion say it will cause failure in Iraq, and that simply will be a win for the terrorists.
The Democrats know very well that it will be close to impossible to override a veto with their slim majority in the Senate. Then why do they continuously waste time on bills they know will be vetoed? To make a point? Certainly, now they'll have a track record to show their support to bring troops back in time for the 2008 elections. As a wise man once told me, the job of an elected official, is to get elected.
Waste of time? Or are they sincerely working for the best interests of the people?
