I'm a genius
Carl Levin was on npr this morning. He was asked what the democrats could do to "compel the president to" do what they want over Iraq. His response was priceless. When the transcripts are available, I'll post them, but it was along the lines of...
"I think the President should do what the American people have so clearly shown him what they want him to do, which is (what the democrats want him to do)"
Announcer: But couldn't they use the "pursestrings" option; defunding the iraqi operations?
Levin: Well, nobody really WANTS to pursue that. It would take enough votes for the legislation to overcome President Bush's VETO...
Damn straight, Carl. You know that the only power you have is to whine to the leftwing media, and hope that Bush knuckles under to your bluff, (which he may do. I wouldn't credit republican politicians with the stones of a gnat)
