UPDATE: The latest from the Dems: Sure, this time we caved, but next time boy that President Bush better watch out.
Maryland Democrat [Steny Hoyer] said the next step for his party will be to insist on tougher language in the 2008 military spending bill to be debated this summer.
Uh huh. Whatever.
Sorry, but that's exactly what it is - a blank check. More from CNN. In my view, they blustered and they blinked. Yeah, it's nice that the Dems attached the minimum wage, and I'm happy about that, but that's not really the point is it? We're in a war that is destroying our country. $7.25 an hour isn't going to fix that. It's also not why the Democrats were elected.
Why fucking bother, guys? Seriously. I'm so disillusioned right now.
