Three New Senators Oppose Escalation
Three new Senators have just unveiled a resolution today against President Bush's escalation plan: GOPers John Warner and Susan Collins, and Dem Senator Ben Nelson. The measure, which is intended as a softer alternative to the Biden-Hagel resolution introduced last week, stops short of advocating any sort of concrete Congressional action against Bush's escalation proposal; indeed, one of its most conspicuous features is its refusal to use the word "escalation" to describe Bush's troop increase. Rather, it uses the word "augmentation" -- the preferred language of the White House. On-air commentators are already starting to hail this resolution for its centrist and bipartisan nature and its reach for "compromise." So here's our question: Can anyone seriously argue that this measure represents anything close to the center of popular opinion in this country?















There is only one DECIDER. Nothing anyone else has to say matters.

It must have been a fearful thought that the Senators, would have been charged and sent to their deaths for opposing Caesars grab for power.
How long must the people suffer under the rule of law that allows a Despot, It is becoming apparent that even the US Senators are trying to come to grasp with the madness of this self proclaimed Caesar, taking ½ measures so as to not be called traitors. What frightening times we confront.

This President doesn’t care what the Senators think, This president and his tightly knit group of Cheney and his Neo Con advisors,view this Congress as his slaves. “ Beware you slaves, you’re bordering treason.”
If Congress doesn't act quickly, Resistance will be futile
