Dems Cave in on Iraq Funding
Why is it that the Dems have the majority now and all of the sudden it takes 60 votes in the Senate to pass anything?? They did not filibuster anything (not even getting rid of Habeas Corpus) when they were the minority, now the Republicans are making sure nothing gets passed unless it is a giant compromise.
Dems, GOP see win in Iraq funding bill
I say they should have just kept sending him bills that had a withdrawl date and let him explain why the troops ran out of money... If nothing else, we would at least get Halliburton to withdraw - money is all they care about...

One of The Stupidest Letters Ever
This delight of a letter was in Today's Belleville News "Republican". Yes - those damn tax and spend Democrats... That is what is destroying our country... The "borrow and spend even more" Republicans are doing so much better. Someone please go check the houses in Swansea for lead paint...

Belleville Makes News on the Stephanie Miller Show
Stephanie Miller (daughter of Republican Barry Goldwater's VP running mate in 1964) has a nationally syndicated liberal talk radio show which is not on in the St. Louis area. It can be streamed on the Internet from her web site. It is absolutely hilarious. I got a podcast subscription for about $59 for a year and can download the show and listen to it whenever I am at the gym or mowing the lawn or whatever. I posted a sample from today here. Anyway, the other day they had a news item about an incident in Belleville. My sister sent me the link.

More Proof Shimkus is a Moron
From the Huffington Post:
"Rep. John Shimkus just took to the floor with one of the most ridiculous analogies,
comparing the war in Iraq to a baseball game."
In addressing the house, he actually said:
“Imagine my beloved St. Louis Cardinals are playing the much despised Chicago Cubs.”
To help describe the Iraq war.... Someone please go wake the people in Madison and Clinton County....
You can see the video here.
