Politicians - Our Senators
I guess this is what is meant by "having it both ways"...
Here's an editorial from the Washington Times:
"The Senate's 81-0 vote on Friday to confirm Lt. Gen. David Petraeus as commander is just the latest sign of the intellectual incoherence of that chamber's approach to Iraq. Right now, anti-war lawmakers are afraid to act on their convictions and cut off funding right away, so they seem to have opted for a two-track strategy: on the one hand, approving some funds for the war so they can't be accused of hurting the troops that they claim to support, on the other, denouncing President Bush's policies at every opportunity regardless of whether such actions project weakness or embolden the enemy."
