Do Democrats Know About The Internet?
Dec 23, 2009 Political
One would think that since Al Gore invented the Internet, Democrats would know it exists and would know that people can look things up quickly. It is now possible to retrieve information in a matter of seconds when it use to take hours or days and sometimes even longer.
It seems Democrats do not know this because they keep saying or doing things that are totally different from what they said and did in the past. Take Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, the moron who said that those who oppose the health care bill were right wing extremists and members of the Aryan groups. This guy had some other nice things to say.
This happened when the defense appropriations bill was being debated. The Republicans were dragging it out as long as the legislative process allowed in order to delay the health care debate. Here is what Whitehouse had to say about this:
“The lowest of the low was the Republican vote against funding and supporting our troops in the field in a time of war. As a device to stall health care, they tried to stop the appropriation of funds for our soldiers. There is no excuse for that. From that there is no return. ” Legal Insurrection
The Republicans did not vote against funding the troops. They voted against cloture and then objected to an immediate vote once cloture was achieved. These were procedural items to drag it out. The troops got funded as was the intention all along.
However, let us look at this statement. Whitehouse says there is no excuse for trying to stop the appropriations (once again, they just tried to delay it, not stop it) and that from this there is no return.
In 2007, as reported in the linked article, Whitehouse was one of 14 Senators who voted against the Iraq war funding supplemental to support the troop surge. That is right ladies and gentlemen, Whitehouse voted not to fund our troops. He voted against funds for our soldiers. He was also a cosponsor to a bill that would cut off all funding unless troop withdrawals began in 120 days. Did he object to Obama’s additional troop request and did he try to impose a withdrawal deadline? Probably not because Obama is the messiah.
Mr. Whitehouse, there is no excuse and there is no return. Those are your words. This guy is a total hypocrite (as are most of the liberals who voiced their objection on this issue) and he is a disgrace to his office. What was that thing about glass houses and stones?
Sheldon Whitehouse is a moron. No, Whitehouse gives morons a bad name.
