George Bush, who rarely ever uses his veto, vetoes more money for the troops that he sent to die for his lie. Accomodations in hell await you sir.

Democrats backed off after the House failed, on a vote of 222 to 203, to override the president's veto of a $124 billion measure that would have required U.S. forces to begin withdrawing as early as July. But party leaders made it clear that the next bill will have to include language that influences war policy. Senate Majority Leader Harry M. Reid (Nev.) outlined a second measure that would step up Iraqi accountability, "transition" the U.S. military role and show "a reasonable way to end this war."

"We made our position clear. He made his position clear. Now it is time for us to try to work together," House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (Calif.) said after a White House meeting. "But make no mistake: Democrats are committed to ending this war."

I have heard Bush recently talking about how he would like to bring the troops home, but does not want to leave Iraq in the mess that we see it in today. He never mentions that it was the presence of our troops in Iraq that turned it into the mess we see today.

The fact is that it is easy to make a mistake, but very difficult to repair the damage from that mistake.

I just hope that the families of the soldiers over in Iraq are paying attention to who is really keeping their loved ones in harms way. It is not the progressives and Democrats. It is the war mongering Republicans who are completely unable to take responsibility to supporting this completely unnecessary debacle. They will let hundreds of Americans die rather then admit that they screwed up.

Let us remember that during the next election cycle.
