Senator Blowhard, aka Ted Kennedy, D-MA, today vowed to block funding for our troops and the War in Iraq. The Senator from Massachusetts unleashed his vitriol in response to a bipartisan supported plan for a temporary troop surge to stabilize Baghdad.
This is precisely the type of rhetoric and denigration of our troops that Senator Joe Biden, D-Delaware, warned about this past Sunday. Biden responded to a comment by Nancy Pelosi which contained a veiled threat of a withdrawal of funding unless the President begins an immediate, unconditional withdrawal from Iraq. The heart of Biden's criticism was the inherent assumption that Congress can second guess a President's war strategy. According to Biden, this must not be the practice of Congress, and certainly it is not in the best interests of the troops on the ground for Congress to pull the rug out from under them, playing a game of Russian Roulette with the lives of soldiers all because of a disagreement with the President on the manner in which the war is conducted.
Biden joins Senators Joe Lieberman, Carl Levin, Lindsey Graham, and John McCain in a bipartisan approach to stabilizing the region.
Yet along comes Senator Blowhard, who can always be counted upon to blow his stack with some of the most unintelligible gibberish in Washington. It seems the resident village idiot wants funding withdrawn to force the President out of Iraq. Apparently the Senator from Massachusetts never stopped to consider the far-reaching consequences of such an act, not the least of which is leaving our soldiers out in the cold without the support of the politicians back home.
This is precisely what the Left did to Viet Nam soldiers, and we all know of the shameful, despicable manner in which they were treated. In fact, 'Blowhard' Kennedy stated in his remarks that this was Viet Nam all over again.
Apparently, Senator, this is true in more ways than one. With people like you coming very close to treason, you won't stop until America is once again humiliated like we were in Viet Nam. Why don't you go soak your head in a tub of icewater.
