Reid may move to cut Iraq war funds

 

WASHINGTON - Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (news, bio, voting record) said Monday he wants to cut off money for  war next year, making clear for the first time that Democrats are willing to pull out all the stops to end U.S. involvement.

   Reid was an amateur pugilist during his college days and obviously thinks  like one now in the Senate – no foresight and can only see  as far as his nose. He is thinking only of the voters who put the Democrats in the majority, without regard to consequences of his actions. Never mind the chaos and anarchy that will ensue, “I have done my constitutional duty”, he said, and in effect thumping his chest.

   Other Democrats are singing the same tune and assuming the same stance – Napoleonic complex, fantasizing that they are generals and commander-in-chiefs. The Democrats need not go very far to see the effect of their folly – they can go to the kitchen and see  many cooks on the job. Perhaps they can have a sumptuous meal.
