Seems to be working rather well, wouldn't you say?

As for "politics over principle", what of the Republicans sudden enthusiasm for pro-choice, gay-friendly, pro gun control, married three times, womanizing Rudy Giuliani?

Besides, the Dems don't have a filibuster-proof majority, so no end Iraq legislation is possible until enough Republicans cross over or the Dems get their 60+ Senators in '08. If the Republicans want to survive, they should cross over.

It would just be the SANE thing to do, end the horribly expensive carnage. Did you know we've spent a MILLION DOLLARS for every "insurgent" and jihaddi we've killed? Couldn't we just pay the Iraqis $500k to do the same job?

Oh for pete's sake...your lunch will just never end.

Is Bush having any recent luck finding those WMD in the Oval Office?

Can you update us on any new Foley, Gunkert and/or Haggard sightings you have had? Were you part of the Haggard restoration team on one of your very infrequent lunch breaks or did he join you for lunch?.
