Here They Come!
I hope the troops are digging into their trenches. The Democratic leadership is beginning to emerge in the new Congress. The highlights? Dick "American Troops are Nazis" Durbin and potentially John "American Troops Killing Iraqis in Cold Blood" Murtha, as well as the usual suspects. As I mentioned, this is to be expected. Some conservative Democrats are not anti-military, but the party leadership clearly is. Carl Levin, the new leader of the new chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, has declared we are to start leaving Iraq in 4-6 months. God bless the troops as they weather this storm.

On a brighter note, Trent Lott is back in a leadership role in the Senate. Some Republicans disagree, but I've always liked Lott... we'll see how he performs as Minority Whip, beating milquetoast candidate Lamar Alexander by a single vote (somewhat disheartening, this). Hopefully, John Boehner can secure the top spot in the House. Matt at WMD has been a relentless supporter, and it would benefit the nation greatly.
