MoveOn.org is launching a petition to demand that the U.S. Congress stands firm on Bush's veto of a resolution, requiring a deadline for American troops to leave Iraq.
“We demand that Congress stand (sic) firm against the veto, and include a deadline to end the war in the bill it sends back to the president. No more blank checks for war,” the petition says.
Still, the Democrats are capitulating in the face of the war-monger-in-chief. They are likely to vote for war credits without any deadline for the withdrawal of U.S. troops. It is not Bush who is capitulating, it is the Democrat Party... They will lose the trust of those brave and intelligent Americans who oppose the Bush Dictatorship. Opposition to Bush and the Democrats will grow, and the Democrats will lose control. Watering down is no option.
Let's hope MoveOn can make a difference. And if it doesn't, the American people will choose a more radical movement to chase Bush from the White House.
