I don't usually blog on Shabbes, but since there is danger involved I thought I should warn you ASAP.
From Bill Schneider, CNN Senior Political Analyst:
.... Only two Republicans in the House ... and two in the Senate ... voted to support a deadline. Other Republicans are standing with President Bush, despite public opinion. That's a dangerous thing to do in a democracy, as Republicans learned in the election last November.So why are they doing it? For one thing, their base is with them. Most Republican voters continue to support President Bush. Republican opinion on Iraq is almost exactly the reverse of the country as a whole: By 59 percent to 34 percent, Republicans want their representative to vote against a deadline, according to the Pew poll.
This has been a public service announcement.
