Global war on terror deniers plan publicity stunt

WASHINGTON — Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has threatened to keep the Senate awake all night Tuesday to protest GOP blocking tactics on moves to compel U.S. troop withdrawals from Iraq.Senate Republican leaders, alerted to Reid’s plans on Monday, said they have the votes to keep the president’s surge policy in place, at least for now, and called Reid’s up-all-night gambit a stunt that wouldn’t change any minds.

Senior Democratic leadershp aides said that Reid was planning a Tuesday all-nighter — complete with roll-away beds — to draw public attention to GOP demands that any changes to Iraq policy carry a 60-vote majority.

“Is this a publicity stunt? Yes,” a senior Democratic aide told FOX News. “This is the only way we know to highlight their complete ignorance of the will of the people!”

Well, the latest Rasmussen polls showed Congress with an approval rating about 12 points lower than President Bush’s, and over half of those surveyed showing a desire to wait until September before deciding on a change of course in the Iraq war.

Complete ignorance, indeed

  1. Of course they have this well coordinated with their kindred spirits in the LameStream media. Why else would they do something this pathetic, if they couldn’t use their ministers of propaganda to misinform the American public?
    It ain’t about the GWOT or their concern for our troops, it’a all about 08. They know the surge is working, and a successful campaign against their constituents from AQ, would be disastrous for their attempt to seize power.
