Republican senate blocks anti-escalation resolution


Harry Reid:Senate rejects debate on anti-escalation resolution. AP reports: "The Senate gridlocked on the Iraq war in a sharply worded showdown on Saturday as Republicans foiled a Democratic attempt to rebuke President Bush over his deployment of 21,500 additional combat troops. The vote was 56-34." That was four short of the 60 needed to advance the measure, which is identical to a nonbinding resolution that passed the House on Friday. Think Progress

LOL! Great image! Bush is about as big a knucklehead as Archie anyways.

Thank you! It is too bad about the anti-escalation resolution, though. Nancy will head him off at the pass, no doubt!
