Someone Set Harry Reid Straight

The Democrats in the Senate want a non-binding vote on the President’s plan to send more troops to Iraq. The Democrats are a little upset because that vote was blocked today by the Republicans. I guess it is hard to have the same thing done to them that they have been doing to Republicans for years. Harry Reid is once again shouting the Democratic mantra that the election last November was about Iraq and the war and they have a mandate to do something. I will not get into that debate because I have stated many times before that the election had little to do with the war (Americans might not like the direction but they did not vote to lose the damned thing) and the results are in line with historical trends. The Democrats can not see that because they figure if they say it enough people will believe them (and the ignorant will).
I will, for the moment and for the sake of argument, say that Harry is right. I concede for the moment that the election was about the war and people want something done. So Harry, the people elected George Bush in 2000 and and using your logic that means that the people wanted a Republican President who would appoint Conservative judges to the many judicial positions that opened during his tenure. You and your idiot sycophants in the Senate blocked nearly every judge he sent up for confirmation. You threatened to block Roberts and Alito and there are judges who have been waiting for years for you to vote on them.
Also, Harry, the people reelected Bush in 2004 in the middle of the war. This means that they wanted him to continue to fight the war and to prosecute it to the best of his ability. They wanted to continue with tough questioning of terrorists and they wanted to keep Gitmo open. Yes Harry, using your logic the people wanted this because they voted to keep him in office when this is what was going on. How did you and your Democrats react? Well, you continually said that the election was not a mandate on the war or on his Presidency. You continued to block judicial nominations, you tried to close Gitmo, you softened the way we question terrorists, you had our soldiers arrested and tried while the animal Muslims who cut off heads and dismembered our soldiers were never pursued, and you continually talked about cutting and running. You let that idiot Murtha lead you around by your pointy little noses and tell America that you all wanted to cut and run, all this against the will of the people who reelected Bush to continue the war.
You can not have it both ways Harry. You need to either consider all elections mandates on what the person being elected is doing (or wants to do) or you need to consider elections as generalities with no one reason for the outcome. You and those small minded jackasses with whom you work want to believe that America made some kind of mistake electing Bush and that it is only through the leadership of the Democratic party can we common folk be set on the right path. Yes Harry, you, Kerry, Pelosi, Kennedy, and Clinton all know what is best for the masses. You know best how to spend OUR money. You know best how we should live our lives, what kind of vehicles we should drive and what we should sacrifice in the name of the almighty Democrat. Well screw you and the rest of them.
In case you all have forgotten this, you work for us. We do not work for you. We have the power to put you in office and to remove you. NONE OF YOU HAVE THAT POWER. We are your employers and we pay your salaries. We do not need you to tell us what is best and we do not need you voting on meaningless items that waste time and money. We certainly do not need votes on things that give our troops the impression that we here at home do not want them to succeed because all REAL AMERICANS want our troops to win the war. Only you non-patriotic, anti-American, defeatists want to see us lose. So do us all a favor and shut your pie hole.
I agree with Zell Miller. We should still be able to challenge people to a duel. I would slap Reid in the face with a gauntlet and challenge him to draw pistols at 10 paces. I might be able to get 3 rounds through the same hole before he hits the ground. I guess in all fairness he should pick the weapons. But then again he would probably just cut and run.
Since we are not able to duel I will just say that Harry Reid is an ignorant little man with few scruples who is involved in unethical behavior with regard to land deals and the gifts he receives. He does not care about our troops and this waste of time shows how far he will go to denigrate their sacrifices. He should be removed from office and placed in a jail. I know of one in Cuba where they would take real good care of him.
