Does anyone else think the Democrats are acting like a bunch of pussies?

I am so frustrated and disappointed that Congress is now putting forward an Iraq funding bill with no withdrawal dates included. I realize the Democratic majority is a very slim one, but I can't help but feel like they backed down pretty quickly. Bush has made an art out of ruling as though the country was his own General Lee and every political battle is a game of chicken. The Dems couldn't even pull a Ren MacCormack and get their shoelaces caught long enough to make their loss respectable.

And, frankly, I've had enough with non-binding measures. Do something that counts! A non-binding vote of no confidence on Gonzalez doesn't effect change anymore than rubber stamping the president's bullshit war spending does.
