Treason..

Prior to 911 we did not have an ‘under the microscope’ campaign against terrorism. Since 911 we have not had another successful terrorist attack on our homeland. What short memories we have.

Nobody in their right mind enjoys war, be it with your neighbor, school yard bullies, or such mundane groups as our current terrorists. However, unless one can accept current situations or even escalations of current situations, sometimes war of some sort is necessary. Regardless of ones stance on the current war on terrorism, it almost defines treason to advocate the refusal to fund our troops, regardless of where they are or what their mission is.

If we have soldiers dying from lack of funding to keep them in the supplies they need to survive then the blame lies with those that would refuse funding.

I have yet to see any; responsibility in the passing of laws, reality of any common sense, or the feasibility of ending the war on terrorism by any action of our spineless Congress.

The bill to fund our troops was necessary. The dictation of a date to bring the troops home was not. Any such date would warrant a veto to the whole bill, since we have not had the good sense to give any President the required line item veto. The majority Democratic Party knew this, yet guaranteed a veto by the addition of a withdrawal date. The subsequent lack of funds for our troops is now the sole responsibility of the Democratic Party. If it were up to me I would try them all for treason.

If you disagree, just remember the fact that we have had no terrorism on our homeland since 911. Bring an end to the pressure we keep on the terrorist groups and you will, almost of a certainty, have such successful acts again. Keeping in mind that you let the Democrats have their way, when their ‘way’ is nothing but ‘anti Bush’, the question begs an answer, will you still blame President Bush?

Hind sight can be fatally late.
