Originally posted by Silat Yes after rereading the text it does sound CUT and RUN.........."Providing for consideration of the resolution expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that the deployment of United States forces in Iraq be terminated immediately and providing for consideration of the concurrent resolution (H .

Originally posted by Casca It was supposed to sound like cut and run. That was the point. When I said it was chicanery I was referring to the fact that it was submitted to force the hand of the Democrats, to require them to put their names next to the sentiment. Only three representatives in the whole house voted for it...Murtha was not among them.

Myth: Americans bombed Trang Bang, Viet Nam, and burned Kim Phuc, the girl in the famous photo.Fact: As stated by the photographer himself, Nick Ut, and clearly shown on film, the Viet Nam Air Force (VNAF) dropped the bombs that hurt Kim. This was witnessed and reported by UPI television correspondent Christopher Wain, and also reported at the time, by noted correspondent Peter Arnett. Other journalists who were not there, through assumption, sloppy work, or malice, have since reported that the attack was by US aircraft, and have further embellished the story with time. Most of the commercials for the recent A&E documentary, and indeed, the host on the broadcast, said that the documentary would show "the American commander who ordered the bombing". That statement is not true. plenty more here
