Dear Senate Democrats,

It's not considered a 'victory' just because you got a bunch of Republicans to sign on to adding even more spending to the Iraq spending bill. It's called you failing at doing what you were elected to do, which is to end the war in Iraq.

However, you have continuiously funded the war every step of the way. Even as two Senators vie for the nomination, vowing to end the conflict over there, you still vote for the war. Every time you vote to spend money in Iraq, you are voting for the war, again and again and again. Every time to authorize the Administration to use more and more of our tax dollars over there, you are simply saying that you agree that we should stay there and continue fighting.

Just because you increased Veteran benefits and threw in domestic spending into an 'emergency war funding' bill doesn't make you some big god damned heroes. It makes you exactly like the neo-con wing of the GOP; a bunch of war mongers content with keeping our troops in a fight they should never have been asked to wage.

So Senate Democrats, I hope you feel good about keeping the war machine rolling. I hope you grease your hair with the same grease you've put into the wheels. Thanks for being no different. Thanks for voting for war again. Next time a democrat tell me the democrat party is that of peace, I hope a little part of them laughs inside, knowing it's really not true.
