Snatches from Behind
First, the United States Senate wants to vote on a resolution opposing the President’s so-called troop surge in Iraq. But it’s a non-binding resolution. It has no authority.
Second, the Bush Administration is submitting itself again to the putative authority of the FISA Court in the matter of its warrantless searches. The President and his attorney general have decided to make a sacrifice of their previous argument that such activities are within the powers of a Commander-in-Chief.
Which of these items is the greater example of political cowardice?
Now that the Dhimmicrats have ridden their anti-warhorse back into Congressional leadership, why are they lollygagging with non-binding resolutions? Time’s wasting, comrades! You said this war has to stop, so why not go ahead and cut funding to our troops?
But, Mr. President, why would you choose to submit your powers again to the un-Constitutional FISA Court? Did you do it to appease the ACLUniks? I think it’s a disastrous decision to concede that power.
