A bipartisan group of Senators has prepared legislation that they want to offer in the next few weeks that would keep US troops in Iraq indefinitely. What's worse, they're claiming that the legislation implements the recommendations of the bipartisan Iraq Studgy Group, when in fact, the legislation codifies George Bush's current failed policies in Iraq.

The misnamed "Iraq Study Group (ISG) Recommendations Implementation Act of 2007," is being offered by Senators Ken Salazar (D-CO), Lamar Alexander (R-TN), Bob Bennett (R-UT), Mark Pryor (D-AR), Judd Gregg (R-NH), Robert Casey (D-PA), John Sununu (R-NH) and Blanche Lincoln (D-AR). Probably the most offensive thing about the legislation is that it outright calls for the continuation of the status quo policy of keeping US troops in Iraq until the day that Iraq is 100% ready to stand on its own - namely, never.

Two Arkansans disgrace the state. Again. And I thought Jim Holt was an embarassment...

Jim Holt is and was an embarassment. Let's not lose perspective here. Pryor and Lincoln are Goldwater Republicans (as is Hillary Clinton). Holt is a neo-nazi. It's sort of like the choice between snakes - which I am deathly afraid of anyway - but if I HAD to make a choice, I'd take a python over a copperhead any day of the week.

I just emailed Lincoln and Pryor & told them any bill that leaves U.S. troops in Iraq should not have their names on it.
