War at Home: In the People’s House
This proposal is very short and to the point. We support the troops, but we do not want anymore troops sent over to Iraq. I like the fact that the republican minority in the house does not have enough power to push this bill into a procedural death. This new found democratic power in the white house will certainly allow us to see changes in what types of bills we see proposed. Also, many of the republicans in the house will be siding with the democrats on this one. It is unclear whether the democrats will allow a alternative plan, but I feel that they should not. They have already fouled up so many bills, it is someone elses turn to make a decision on the quagmire across the ocean. Of course, the republicans whine about bi-partisan campaign promises, but they will not be heard, they do not have the power.

One thing that is getting very old is this ongoing debate that the democrats and republicans have over what to do about Iraq. I support the democrats’ position in going against Bush and not supporting the increase in troops Bush wants to send to Iraq because I think it is imperialism. If China invaded us and tried to control our government, Americans all over would revolt. If we keep sending troops to Iraq, I think it is possible that we could start World War III because no body supports the Americans in Iraq.
