Biden: We don't have the votes

[ProSense]

No need to discuss Iraq anymore until 2008! Continue posting death tolls for U.S. troops and Iraqis.

1. Well, Biden should know all about not having votes;

he's sure as hell not getting mine, anyway.

[Jack Rabbit]

2. Then go out and find them, twit!

Hillary Clinton
Barack Obama
John Edwards
Bill Richardson
Joe Biden
Dennis Kucinich

8. Hee, hee

:thumbsup:

[Jack Rabbit]

13. I feel pretty much the same way

If and when he finally tosses his hat in the ring, I'll be with him.

Even without him, the only thing that keeps me from calling this Al Gore the the seven drawves is that there's eight dwarves.

3. Red Herring: There are MORE than enough votes to STOP FUNDING IT.

Funding requires 60 votes to have cloture and approve it ...and 41 Senators can STOP any funding bill. Period. End of discussion.

Sheesh! :grr:

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

10. Shhhhh!!! We mustn't think that they can actually do something..other than fundraise.

[TahitiNut]

11. It amazes me that supposedly well-informed DUers buy Biden's shit on that.

Forty-one (Democratic?) Senators can shut down the occupation of Iraq. That's all that's necessary. Done deal. The posturing is fucking pathetic. :puke:

[Individualist]

4. Can't win, won't fight is a DLC mantra.

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

5. Well, He Was Right.

I think the dems should've fought back harder but in the end he's still right.

[OHdem10]

7. They need 17 Republican Votes.

[AndyTiedye]

9. They Need 17 Republican Votes to Impeach and Remove from Office

So let them impeach Gonzales and remove him from office!
They could get 17 Republicans to vote for that!

Then start on "Go F*ck Yourself" Cheney....

[bigtree]

12. we could keep pretending that holding back one supplemental spending bill would end the occupation

. . . instead of keeping the pressure on the 17 or so republicans it would take to pass legislation setting an exit date, where it belongs.

[ellisonz]

14. Man's got a point.

[ProSense]

15. We don't have the votes so we resign to

sacrifice another 4,000 troops over the course of the next 30 months to a war already lost.

Hey, we don't have the votes!
