Voting against the troops
During the supplemental funding debacle the Democrats backed down as soon as the Republicans rebuffed their witholding challenge by calling them unsupportive of the troops. A few statements from the right and weeks of talk fell asunder while puddles of urine were abundant at press conferences to the tone of: 'No, no, they are wrong, we totally support the troops and to prove it we will pass this bill unquestioned'.
It seemed an ample opportunity to challenge the patriotism of the republicans when looking at the provisions of this bill.
Expatriate community anyone?
