Reply #82: gotta love the optimism, but

I think the assertion that THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION HAS FINALLY AND COMPLETELY COLLAPSED is also an hysterical reaction to the last few days' events.

Senators Biden and Hagel are concerned about the constitutional implications of an enlargement of theater, which would lead to a constitutional crisis. Should this happen, then there will be a "final and complete collapse" and I'll join in your victory dance.

What you describe is the first big "political victory" we've had in the new congress. Political victories are nice, but I think you need to be reminded that there are still American troops and Iraqi civilians dying everyday, and no end in sight. The financial cost is 200 MILLION dollars every DAY (money that we desperately need here in our own damn cities).

It's great to see the rats abandoning Bush, but lets not party so hard our brains fall out.
