Especially when its unconstitutional for the Congress to do so.
    First off the authorization doesn't slow bleed anything.

    It sets a deadline for either succeeding under bush's last attempt or accepting the failure as permanent.

    Second the suplemental spending bill is in no way required to be exclusively for troops. In fact NONE of the previous supplemental budgets were and Bush never complained before.

    Besides setting the budget is the CONGRESS' responsibility.

    Third Bush has been granted MORE authority than is legal. He is being given the funds he asked for a LAST attempt.

    If Bush is still FAILING in Sept his excess authorities will be pulled.

    Please show me where in the Constitution it says that Congress is obliged to do the president's bidding, exactly on his terms.

    And you may crow about the Congress having a lower approval rating than Bush, but if the difference is only 3%, which is less than the margin of error, then the most valid conclusion one can make is that the public has nearly equal disdain for both Bush and Congress.

    This may be a republic, but that's no excuse to defy the will of the people.


    You're so blind to reality all I can do at this point with you is laugh.



    Oh, yeah- I got more bird shot from WalMart last night.

    You've really turned into a huge asshole lately.

    Ah, so you have no reasoned counter argument to present, only personal attacks.

    Now, do you have any reasoned arguments to present, or just vacuous nonsense like this?

    Because you're totally incapable of talking anything BUT shit.

    With any luck, your days of talking it on this particular site will be limited.
    If you're worth less than $5 million and you vote for McCain, you're a loser.

    That's all your side has presented in this thread, nothing but unadulterated shit. You greet challenges to back up your claims with nonsense, and a generous helping of irrational hostility.

    And you do?

    With that attitude, you've just shown your disdain for the freedoms that we enjoy here and which others envy. I know a few countries where you might feel more comfortable, like, North Korea.

    I think a free trip to NK or Cuba would be an excellent solution for you, commie. Pick one.
