Senate Weighs Measures Urging Bush Set Limits in Iraq

The U.S. Senate opened debate today on measures that would put the chamber on record for the first time asking President George W. Bush to set limits for keeping American troops in Iraq. The Bush administration “needs to explain to Congress and the American people its strategy for the successful completion of the mission” say resolutions introduced separately by both Republicans and Democrats.

This certainly provides evidence that bipartisanship is nearly dead in the Senate, although most pundits and talking heads will label the event in precisely opposite terms than this. It’s just a matter of perspective.

First, the standard interpretation that this IS bipartisanship: the obscene political mating of Frist and Ried, simultaneously cutting the President off at the knees does indicate a perverse sort of cooperation.

Bipartisanship? The Chief would argue that this is an indicator not of bipartisanship, but rather one of MONOpartisanship. At this rate, the only real debate will be whether the newly unified polity will take the name of Republocrats, or Demicans. WAIT! I know! Even more descriptive: call them Republodhimmicrats* taking cognizance not only of their joining, but also their willingness to submit to the strategy of the Islamofascists to push us out of the way of their eventual triumph.

*NOTE: Dhimmitude is the status that Islamic law, the Sharia, mandates for non-Muslims, primarily Jews and Christians. Dhimmis, “protected people,” are free to practice their religion in a Sharia regime, but are made subject to a number of humiliating regulations designed to enforce the Qur’an’s command that they “feel themselves subdued” (Sura 9:29). This denial of equality of rights and dignity remains part of the Sharia, and, as such, are part of the law that global jihadists are laboring to impose everywhere, ultimately on the entire human race. (Note borrowed from the Dhimmi Watch blogsite.)

How unnecessary it all is – once again the American political class is demonstrating that it has no more nerve than the Fwench, and is unwilling to apply the necessary fortitude and determination to grind the enemy into the dust and break HIS will to fight.

What’s a patriotic man to do any more? Remember, Nov. 19 is National Ammo Day – buy 100 rounds (or more)! It’ll no doubt be handy for something or another someday.
