    Default House OKs Iraq Troop Withdrawal Bill

    http://www.comcast.net/news/index.js...25/646836.html

    WASHINGTON - A sharply divided House brushed aside a veto threat Wednesday and passed legislation that would order President Bush to begin withdrawing troops from Iraq by Oct. 1. The 218-208 vote came as the top U.S. commander in Iraq told lawmakers the country remained gripped by violence but was showing some signs of improvement.

    well at least they a standing up .....

    Overheard in a cave or safe house somewhere in Iraq:

    (laughing)"Ahmed!! Ahmed!! Did you see CNN? The US Congress is telling the President to give up! (laughing Harder) "

    "Yes, Sayir! I saw that! I TOLD you the Americans are lead by pussies! All we have to DO is kill a few of them, and they roll-over quicker than a 1-dinar-per night whore!"

    "True, my brother!" Ahmed says, "Soon we'll have Iraqi Oil to fund our fight against Non-believers. Soon we'll have an entire COUNTRY from which to launch attack after attack against the US! Now, it will prove Allah is on our side if they elect a Democrat President in 2008. If so, 911 will look like a mosquito-bite!"
    “… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.
