Check out this headline from the AP:

So what is that? Could it be troop cuts or defunding the war? NO! This article is about the Republicans filibustering Jim Webb’s amendment to give the troops as much time home as they are at war. Anti-war? Fuck you AP – this was a pro-troop bill. It was a pro-military bill, by providing our troops with the rest they need to counter any problem that might face our nation.

AND IT’S CALLED A FILIBUSTER!!!!

You pandering pussies that are destroying the fourth estate. When the Democrats talked of blocking John Roberts confirmation to the Supreme Court all we heard from you was “filibuster”. The Republicans have been on a roll obstructing Senate, yet you never mention the word filibuster. Don’t believe me? Well here is another example just today:

Senate Rejects Expanding Detainee Rights

Makes it sounds like both these measures failed by a straight up/down vote – don’t it? I mean saying “senate rejects” implies that a majority of Senators voted against it. Do your fact checking ASSociated Press. Both these measures were blocked with a filibuster. A majority of Senators wanted to vote on the issues, but the Republicans don’t think our troops our Habeas Corpus deserve an up/down vote. And apparently neither does the AP.
