The Democrats are removing a requirement from the military spending bill that President Bush seek approval from Congress first if he intends to wage hostilities against Iran.
The Democrats trust President Bush to handle military matters with Iran.
Remind me why we were supposed to support the Democrats in November last year?
Where are the hearings on Hurricane Katrina? Oh yeah, LIEberman deep-sixed them.
Where are the hearings on torture, secret renditions, CIA movements of secret prisoners around Eastern Europe? Where is talk of the extradition of CIA agents to Italy to face charges of kidnapping? Where is the restoration of habeas corpus on the agenda? The repeal of onerous USAPATRIOT Act provisions? The closure of Guantanamo? Reconsideration of the REALID Act? Movement on the matter of Posse Comitatus? A few of these matters are getting lip service, but nothing more.
