Democrats... If you back down, Bush steps on you anyway!

Ever the typical bully, Bush at his press conference looks at the highly compromised Supplemental Bill that is heading to the White House and still insults Democrats as being anti-troops.

We learned in the schoolyards that if you let the bully have your lunch money one day, he will take it again every other day until you stand up to him. And what is the result of standing up? A fight? That may be, but it probably means that lunch is yours forever after.

Watching W's smart-lipped mug at his press conference, trying to put the fear of attacks on our shore by armies of Muslim extremists (I guess that's what he means by "fighting them here")into us through the reporting of folks like David Gregory (whose children did it seem he threatened?), I immediately saw the results of Harry Reid and company backing down.

Listen to Russ Feingold! Listen to Kucinich! Listen to Pelosi (who says she won't vote for it!). If Bush won't allow timetables for withdrawal, don't approve the funds! He will have to knuckle under sooner or later just to keep the troops funded. After all, you always offer more money than what is necessary... he just has to go along with the wishes of the vast majority of Americans!

This is not a time to give up! It is a time to Stand Up!
