Dems Don't Want to Politicize the War...Riiiight

We've heard a lot of tut-tutting from Democrats about not politicizing the war. Why, they threw a hissy fit back in 2004 when George Bush actually had the audacity to claim that his handling of 9/11 was one reason Americans should re-elect him. How dare he politicize 9/11!

Democrats are the modern day den of vipers.

How else to explain Democrats sending the latest funding bill for certain veto on the fourth anniversary of the President's "Mission Accomplished" speech?

Yes, yes, I know that normal, reasonable people know that "Mission Accomplished" was talking about getting Saddam Hussein. But don't expect the moonbats and their sycophants in the Democratic Party to accept that. Nope, they think this is a great big "gotcha!" moment.

Democratic leaders in Congress are planning a special ceremony on Tuesday afternoon to send President Bush a bill that sets timetables for troop withdrawal from Iraq.

The timing is no accident. It comes on the fourth anniversary of the day Mr. Bush stood on an aircraft carrier under the banner "Mission Accomplished" and declared that major combat operations in Iraq had ended.

The Democrats’ ceremony, featuring the House speaker, Nancy Pelosi, and the Senate majority leader, Harry Reid, is part of the elaborate political theater at both ends of Pennsylvania Avenue surrounding the Iraq spending bill, which is destined to produce only the second veto of Mr. Bush’s presidency.

Anyone who still takes them seriously must be a fool. It's all theatrics for them.
