I am angry almost beyond words at this action.

Not coincidentally, Hagel and Biden wrote an op-ed piece in USA Today allegedly explaining their actions with this resolution, while in reality it was more like JUSTIFYING their treason in undercutting the country while it is fighting a war.

They wrote that they were doing it because the war was unpopular, as if popularity is the only criteria for war. And they had the unmitigated balls to claim that they have a right to manage the war because Congress is a “co-equal” branch of government.

I remain unconvinced as to both their motives and their claim to power. In fact, I view the actions of the Democratic Party and those Republicans who agree as a attempt to (1) violate the Constitutional powers accorded to the President, and (2) sabotage America while it is fighting a war. The second reason I consider treasonous.

George W. Bush is the President of the United States and is charged by the Constitution to command United States forces during war time to victory. The Constitution gives him the responsibility and the SOLE, EXCLUSIVE power to determine what strategy to use, not Congress. The Constitution itself says that the President’s war powers are plenary and complete and that Congress’s ONLY power is that of the purse.

This resolution does NOT invoke Congresses power to fund the war. But it does give aid and comfort to Al Qaeda and is thus treasonous.

The Democrats, and those Republicans who support them, have stepped over the line in passing this non-binding resolution to cut and run in Iraq, because they DO NOT HAVE the power to determine strategy, and this is a bald-face attempt to impose control over the armed forces.

Ironically, by passing the resolution, the Democrats and Republicans Hagel, Warner, and Snow have stepped into the trap that Bush set for them last night. When Bush said, “Ladies and gentlemen: On this day, at this hour, it is still within our power to shape the outcome of this battle. So let us find our resolve, and turn events toward victory,” the reaction of almost all of the Democrats was to sit on their hands.

It is quite clear to any of American who watched the speech that the Democrats OPPOSE winning in Iraq, and the vote today confirmed it.

This is exactly what the Democratic Party did in 1975 when they betrayed South Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos to the Communists. The result was genocide. The DEMOCRATS were guilty of genocide then and will be guilty of genocide if they succeed in forcing America to cut and run in Iraq.

And the Democrats (and the RINOs) WILL be responsible for any Americans killed by terrorists in the future.

Biden and Hagel (who should be listed as representing Al Qaeda, not DE and NE) lied when they wrote today: “No one in Congress and no one in America wants to see America defeated,” because this is EXACTLY what they intend. They are willingly and openly following the same arc that the Democrats did during Vietnam when they cut off all military aid to South Vietnam in 1975. 56,000 Americans died in vain as a result of the Democrat’s genocide then.

Who knows how many Americans will die because of the Democrat’s treason now.

Potestas Democraticorum delenda est!
