if GOP Congressman are worried about Iraq why not vote with Dems instead of

[LSK]

If they are so concerned about poll numbers regarding Iraq and the next election and Bush is stubborn as a rock and wont listen, why not vote with the Dems on Iraq and stop getting in the way???

Politics.

4. yeah but why confront Bush in secret

They see the poll #s say that the public wants out of Iraq. If they were acting in their political best interest, they would be supporting any plans to get out of Iraq and not meeting with Bush on it behind closed doors.

2. Party before country, LSK

GOPers are expected to toe that party line, and are frequently punished when they stray off the reservation.

5. well the party line is headed for a giant trainwreck in 08

and some of them see it happening.

3. Because they're just dumb Republicans?

6. lip service to trick folks into believing they're opposed

actions speak louder
