It's an amazing thing, how the House Republicans can
herd the Democrats anywhere they want. Latest
marvel of bluff and bluster is a preposterous
resolution calling for victory in Iraq. Barely more than half the Democrats were able to bring themselves
to vote against this nonsense. 59 of them actually voted for it, and 34 voted... "present".
Among those dodging the bullet with a bold and resolute "present" was our friend Rahm Emanuel.
