Time Between Troop Deployments
check who voted yes and who voted no!
Dems overwhelmingly voted YES to allow more time for soldiers between deployments.
who hates the military again?
We have a duty to make sure the government doesn't waste their lives. Surely, as a former Hillary supporter, you know this to be true.It's not about hating the military. What's the point in paying these guys to train them, taking the time to train them, paying them for their services, and then not being able to use them when they are needed? They signed up voluntarily, if you remember.
Not really. Well, okay, they might...but there is no real hard and fast majority in Congress. Yet.US Congress:
Senate-
Democrats: 51%
Republicans: 49%
House-
Democrats: 53.4%
Republicans: 45.7%
Seems pretty even. Guess both parties blow, eh?
More bad news, three out of the four nominees (President and Vice President) are from Congress. The only true outsider is Palin. Too bad she can't VP for someone outside of Washington. We are stuck at selecting another four years of talk but no action. If only they can work as hard in the Oval Office as they do politicking/campaigning. Let's hope Obama or McCain will work just as hard if elected than he would have campaigning.
Here's the problem, can we trust one of the Two Senators who come from a Congress that has a less approval rating than the President, George W. Bush? If you want the next four years as the last eight, we're stuck.
