Cut and Run Defeated

John Kerry, who served in Vietnam by the way, had his cut and run amendment defeated 86-13.

In an 86-13 vote, the Senate turned back a Democratic proposal that would require the administration to withdraw all combat troops from Iraq by July 2007, with redeployments beginning this year. A second vote on another Democratic proposal to begin withdrawing this year, but with no timetable for the war’s end, was planned immediately afterward.

Fine. Bring that one on too. Senator Frist put it just right:

Withdrawal is not an option. Surrender is not a solution.

I heard some of the debate on the Laura Ingrahm show this morning and what a joke really. Senator Reid’s comments take the cake for the most bizzare conclusion. He said something to the extent of:

“General Casey said thousands of U.S. soldiers can withdraw by the end of the year. Does he want to cut and run too Congressional Republicans?”

That statement attributed to Casey is accurate, which is why there’s no reason to pass a Senate bill in the first place.
