THIS is so f***ing immoral.

The Washington Post is reporting that our pal and yours Steny Hoyer is ready to make a deal to enable the continuation of the Iraq disaster in return for "more domestic spending."
Is this the most immoral and disgraceful thing that you have ever heard in your life?
George W. Bush kills 4,000 Americans and 100,000 Iraqis to enrich his daddy's friends and empower his sick dreams and now we are willing to strike a deal that legitimizes his sick fantasies and illegal murder?
It's a fucking disgrace.
I say fuck you Steny. I hope everyone will fight this. More on the flip.
So, the title of the article is
Hill Close To Deal on War Funds
It's by:
Jonathan Weisman and Paul Kane
I don't know much about these two. Are they credible? Please opine in the comments.
Next we learnt that:
House Democratic leaders could complete work as soon as Monday on a half-trillion-dollar spending package that will include billions of dollars for the war effort in Iraq without the timelines for the withdrawal of combat forces that President Bush has refused to accept, House Majority Leader Steny H. Hoyer (D-Md.) said yesterday.
And most despicably:
In a complicated deal over the war funds, Democrats will include about $11 billion more in domestic spending than Bush has requested, emergency drought relief for the Southeast and legislation to address the subprime mortgage crisis, Hoyer told a meeting of the Washington Post editorial board.
What a sick motherfucker. He trades all those American and Iraqi lives for a little fucking domestic spending.
I AM SICK FROM THIS CAPITULATION.
SICK.
As WaPo quite rightly reports:
If the bargain were to become law, it would be the third time since Democrats took control of Congress that they would have failed to force Bush to change course in Iraq and continued to fund a war that they have repeatedly vowed to end. But it would also be the clearest instance yet of the president bowing to a Democratic demand for more money for domestic priorities, an increase that he had promised to reject.
Ugh. I am sick. Again. How many times have I been sick like this since I worked so hard to elect Dems in 2006?
Answer: TOO FUCKING MANY.
