Congressman Kucinich and insurgent leadership make same demands of Bush

Congressman Dennis J. Kucinich,
speaking on the House floor: "But this war can end another way. It can end if enough members of Congress consider and cosponsor H.J. Res 55, a bi-partisan bill introduced last week, to require the President to initiate troop withdrawal no later than October 1, 2006. Thank the troops, and bring them home."

US 'in talks with Iraq rebels' - Sunday Times - Times Online:
The Iraqis had agreed beforehand to focus on their main demand, “a guaranteed timetable of American withdrawal from Iraq”, the source said. “We told them it did not matter whether we are talking about one year or a five-year plan but that we insisted on having a timetable nonetheless.”What esteemed company the authors of Res 55 find themselves in! The Americans were meeting with Ansar Al Sunnah, The Islamic Army of Iraq, the Iraqi Liberation Army, and Jaish Mohammed.

Why have I not seen the FULL STORY in the US Press/NEWS MEDIA? Could it be that the DONKS (whoa-ugly connotations)... Could it be that DEMORATS (whoa not pleasant sounding or warm and cuddly)... Could it be that the LIBERALS (whoa! doesn't 'Liberalism' stand for anything other than destruction anymore...) Could there be a CONSPIRACY, A VERITABLE HIDDEN AGENDA amongst the MINORITY IN CONGRESS which is being covered up because they have a wrap on the media? Well of course not, I'm sure that the DONKS and the turncoat WEEPUBLICANS are... (I'm sorry, even a Big Green Frog doesn't use that sort of lamguage!) please finish that statement for yourself using whatever warm and cuddly words make you feel good. They are simply misguided people. We should try to understand them. Kiss their bloody bums. And keep on reelecting them so that we don't have to put up with the... (Kermit is going under water for a moment... gurgle... gurgle... there, that's better) really swell people out here in the real world!

If it wasn't the middle of July, the Frog would burrow into the mud and Hibernate. The good news is that the ship-of-fools will be leaving the pier for the Summer recess. Democracy may be safe for a little while. Thank God that the Bog is in a RED STATE!
