They celebrated their great victory of taking the leadership, yet they are leaderless and only won the booby prize. They have no real power and worse yet for liberals, they'll later be called upon at election time to show what they accomplished while in charge.
Evidence? The only thing they can accomplish is issuing subpoenas and produce show trials. They can't even get their own minimum wage bill passed, they are so lame and ineffective.

It's not 218 votes. Its 290. 2/3 to override the expected veto.
That's why they are trying to link any further military funding to the mandatory troop withdrawl in 2008. That way Bush has the option of either getting the funding and getting 18 more months, or losing the funding and withdrawing troops immediately.

Very simple the war is lost, if the army is or not defeated in the field it doesnt matter the war is lost in the political and in the economic.

Two words: Republican Idiots
They won't vote for it unless it leaves loopholes for Dubya to continue doing whatever he wants, thereby rendering an anti-war resolution toothless.
And you know it.

First of all, last I check Democrat and Liberal are not synonyms.
Second it has been 2 months.
Third, it is a majority but not a strong majority.
