Quick and Dirty

Just to be clear, as I’m sure the last post was not, the sham GOP proposal mocking Jack Murtha’s proposal was a complete and utter backfire. As you know, I’m totally partisan so take what I say with a handful of salt, but tonight was a total disaster for the Republican party. They are quite lucky in that this happened on a Friday and it’s unlikely that nobody but the political junkies will even know.
Today’s sham was meant to divide Democrats and I’m pretty sure it fell flat on its face. That it was a shameless bit of hackery aimed straight at the deadly serious issues of war, troop deployment, the safety of the armed forces and national security makes the sight of that fall less than not satisfying. Quite a lot less.
More later.
