GOP House refusing to pass resolution praising the troops who got bin Laden
House Republicans say they have no plans to follow the Senate in passing a resolution honoring the military mission that killed Osama bin Laden.

The decision by GOP leaders follows new rules they enacted in January scrapping the tradition of congratulatory measures, which they complained clogged up the House floor.

The Senate on Tuesday passed a resolution, 97-0, commending “the men and women of the United States Armed Forces and the United States intelligence community for the tremendous commitment, perseverance, professionalism and sacrifice they displayed in bringing Osama bin Laden to justice.”

Bastards.

4. You're insulting two-year-olds everywhere.
Two year olds can be taught to say please and thank you. Not these bastards.

8. This is nothing honorable about murdering unarmed people, even when they are terrorists.

9. Sour grapes in extreme.
So now the same people that screamed that the Dems didn't support the troops (because we want them home), are now themselves not supporting the troops.

Okay. Dumbass morans.

12. Hey, go easy on them!
They have anti-abortion, anti-health care reform, pro-gutting Medicare, and non-job creating bills they have to focus on! They can't be bothered with such trivial matters!
:sarcasm: :eyes: :puke:
