Republicans(?) threaten to cut aid to Iraq

is it opposite day?

WASHINGTON - Two Republican senators said that unless Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki makes more political progress by January, the U.S. should consider pulling political or financial support for his government.

The stern warnings, coming from Sens. Lindsey Graham and Saxby Chambliss Monday, are an indication that while GOP patience on the war has greatly increased this fall because of security gains made by the military, it isn't bottomless.

"I do expect them to deliver," Graham, R-S.C., said in a phone interview upon returning from a Thanksgiving trip to Iraq. "What would happen for me if there's no progress on reconciliation after the first of the year, I would be looking at ways to invest our money into groups that can deliver."

seems there was a Republican caravan tour to Iraq for Thanksgiving (I guess their families hate them and didn't want them home) and this is the result. No word about Big Joe Lieberman's view after the trip.

Note that they say they will do it (0.00 / 0)
And they only talk about pulling support for Maliki? Not the illegal invasion and occupation. Just more republicans blaming everyone else for their own failures.

I read this last night and really had to search for it again.

LIEberman did not receive much news coverage other than FOX because his views have become increasingly insignificant.


My internet connection went kaflooey last night (0.00 / 0)
And while troubleshooting the splitter, I had to undo the coaxial cable that goes to the TV.  My significant other yelled down to the basement, "What's up with the TV?  It's got Joe Lieberman frozen on the screen."

Do you think maybe it's some kind of sign?
