The US Democratic Party has released a new ‘attack ad’ on Republican presidential candidate John McCain over the War On Iraq.
The Republicans almost unamiously voted to approve the War On Iraq, and so did the majority of Democrats. They can complain all they want about how Republicans and NeoCons won’t end this appalling war and bring the troops home, but every time President Bush asks for another hundred billion to continue the war, the Democrats give him what he wants.
The War On Iraq continues because most Republican and Democrat senators refuse to end it by cutting off the funding.
Half-trillion dollar defence budgets mean that almost every state of the US gets its cut of the ‘War On Terror’ action, and senators from both sides don’t want to see their constituents losing defence and war-related jobs and income by voting to turn off the torrents of money.
The American people, in the majority, don’t want the War On Iraq to continue, but the majority of Democrats and Republicans do.
So it goes on.
Democracy in action.
