So Bush is threatening to leave our soldiers in harms way if we don't give him more money???!!!

This secretive executive branch, including VP Cheney, hunkers down behind closed doors to dredge up more excuses to go to war and then bankrupts our nation by pouring billions of US dollars into sustaining wars. War is big business, just ask Halliburton and the Private Contractors. Bush's people want a war with Iran and are right now creating the new "mushroom" cloud excuse to justify it. During the Nuremberg trials, the Supreme Court Justice Robert H. Jackson, stated, "To initiate a war of aggression, therefore, is not only an international crime; it is the supreme international crime differing only from other war crimes in that it contains within itself the accumulated evil of the whole."

Is there any more proof that this war is a disastrous, colossal waste of money? I mean, have we even started spending the last "emergency funding" yet, and he's already asking for more?

Democratic leaders, stop the madness right now! Use Bush's hyperbole as a reason to bring them home immediately, before the money "runs out."

F***** Bush.

Where is Osama?

Bush is obviously asking for money for an attack on Iran.
Congress must block all funding for the Bush Administration and impeach Bush and Cheney! He has lied about everything, why do they think he is being truthful now? This would be like supporting Hitler if he promised to be nice - this time.

The sociopath at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave manufactures $42 Billion Dollar emergencies while telling Americans who face a real medical emergency, there is no money available for them.

George W Bush is THE symbol for what is wrong with our country.

Wake Up America!

The drumbeat for war with Iran continues to escalate as the rhetoric and histrionics begin to mushroom in the Bush White House.

The Democrats, and responsible Republicans, should be ever mindful of the artificial maneuverings by the Bush White House. They appear to want to start a war with Iran before the elections of '08. And I'm sure that by doing so they hope to sway more voters to the dark side.

Congress should be resolute in its opposition to a war with Iran prior to the elections of '08. The world is not in danger of any "mushroom clouds" emanating from Iran any time soon.

Stop Bush and Cheney from doing any more harm than they've already done.

Here we go again, more HOT AIR coming our way from BOTH sides, with Bush winning yet again - unless the Democrats AND a few brave Republicans step up vote down any more funding bills for war or they filibuster them.

Bush is claiming the soldiers need bullet proof vests and equipment to keep them safe....WHY ON EARTH aren't they ALREADY protected? What has Bush been doing with that already budgeted money?

That so-called "emergency" request includes money for Mexico, supposedly, to help Mexico's president fund the "war on drugs". Bush is in LOVE with that word, WAR, gives him chills.
In the first place, most of the illegal drugs in this country COME FROM MEXICO. They are responsible for it. They should be the ones paying for it.
In the second place, imagine giving billions to Mexico so they can turn around and use it to hire lawyers to try to prevent us from enforcing our laws.
In the third place, How the Hell does giving billions of dollars to Mexico SUPPORT OUR TROOPS?
We can't "afford" health care for children but we can "afford" billions for Mexico. Mexico should be paying America for all the money it has cost to feed, clothe and educate untold millions of Mexican illegals for the last 20 years.
This is so disgusting it is BEYOND BELIEF.
DEPORT BUSH. HE'S NOT AN AMERICAN. HE'S A MEXICAN WANNABE. IF WE CAN'T GET HIM IMPEACHED DEPORTATION IS THE NEXT BEST THING. Then he won't have to work so hard for his North American Union or his "Keep Texas Moving" super highway. And the rest of us can live in peace.

I wish the USA would face reality. You have a resident in the white house that is an evil sociopath. One who has had a manufactured life.

Geezuzz, wake up.

Well, right on cue (about 60 days from a seasonal recess of Congress)Shrub rolls out another demand for more money for his occupation -- Act I. For the next 60 days we will be pounded by an increasingly loud harangue with many reasons as to why it is IMPERATIVE that he be given this money NOW! You all know the reasons -- troops, equipment, AQI, al quaeda all over, yatta, yatta, yatta. This Act II will end with the penultimate Top Dem Scary Thing, the Fake-Attack-On-The-Capitol-Tomorrow tactic complete with scary-looking, Blackwater-type paramilitary types with dogs roaming all over Congress, the Mall and anywhere else that they think will scare the shit out of everybody on the day before Congress is supposed to recess. Act III will commence with the Top Dems caving to Shrub (yet again) drafting whatever legislation they can to do whatever he wants and hitting the "Yes" button right before hightailing it out of town for their various home states. Usually it's summer where we get reruns, isn't it?

Is Bush too drunk to plan ahead? Everything gets pushed to the last minute and then becomes an emergency? How about if he tells us right now what he wants for next year, and we can talk about it. No need to wait until it becomes an emergency.

It seems that as each new player gets thrust into the lime light, he or she fails us. No one can stand up to the evil that is upon the land, foisted upon us by our Administration.

Even a heart felt plea by a 76 year old congress-member to fund health-care for less well off children which calls a spade a spade - i.e. that the President is sending troops to be killed for his amusement rather than funding children's survival becomes a heart felt plea for his office to once again become insignificant as the glare of hate focuses on him for his remarks.

One would think that toward the end of one's life at least one would have the temerity to stand by principles and oppose the outrage of the devil spawn. But one would be wrong.

It's my way or hell's fury says our nation's usurper in chief. God knows what I will do to you if you cross me!

As the R's lose power they grow more desperate, punishing anyone who breaks ranks more strongly each time. Sun Tsu mentioned that this was a sign of desperation. That is our silver lining.

Will we be able to resist this funding request to prevent war with Iran? It will take bravery on the part of the next several men and women who are staring down those spot lights. Given that there are getting to be more and more of such men and women on whom the spotlight will fall, it may come at any time now.

God save America.

GWBush has been STALLING, STALLING, STALLING to drag out his Iraq INVASION-war so he can SHOVEL taxpayer money to his WAR PROFITEER CORPORATE WELFARE QUEENS pals.

Rightwing republican GOAL is to enrich THE RICH MULTINATION CORPORATIONS who want to "run the world" and to disempower less-rich Americans.

It's time for Congress to STALL Bush.
NO MORE TAXPAYER DOLLARS FOR BUSH & COMPANY'S SHITTY CORRUPT WAR.

the end is near, so repent somehow.
