"What do (I) think? Let (me) get back to you on that."
Republicans block Senate debate on Iraq -- From Yahoo! News. By David Espo.
"We must heed the results of the November elections and THE WISHES OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE," said Majority Leader Harry Reid...
...THE AMERICAN PEOPLE do not support escalation. Last November, voters made it clear they want a change of course, not more of the same," said Reid. "The President must hear from Congress, so he knows he stands in the wrong place, alone."
--------------------------------------------------
This is a republic, not a democracy, Senator.
What do YOU think? That's why THEY elected YOU.
--------------------------------------------------
We think that we need to get the fuck our of Iraq.
We think that this whole ball of wax is hanging by a thread.
We think that it's time to act, not react.
We think that there's enough blame to go around for us all to smell pretty bad.
We think that having agendas is a basic human condition. An unattractive human condition.
We think that there's always something that can be done to make things better, or at least less worse.
We think that we really don't know very much 'bout much in the vast scheme of things. And that the world would be better off, to take a massively important example, if more doctors told their patients the same thing. "(We) don't know" -- A three word answer that says so much. Like, maybe, "You can trust me just a little bit, since I'm as confused as you are."
We are quite sure that being right all the time is so very wrong.
