"Such excuses no longer are good enough"

damn right, they're not... while i may be a democrat, i certainly don't think living in argentina qualifies as living in the heartland, but, i can tell you this... i'm pissed...
In Washington, Democrats are blaming Republicans for the Senate's failure so far to vote on a resolution opposing a troop increase in Iraq.

But in the heartland, some voters say such excuses no longer are good enough.

Having banked on the promise that Democrats would force a change of course in Iraq if they won control of Congress, some of the people who helped the Democrats get there are growing impatient.

They're frustrated that Democrats sank so much energy into a nonbinding resolution then dropped the bipartisan plan of Sens. John Warner, R-Va., and Carl Levin, D-Mich., like a hot potato when Republican leaders who support President Bush maneuvered them into a corner.

as i said above, i'm pissed, not impatient... and it's not only iraq i'm pissed about... it's the wholesale destruction of my country that has been taking place for over six years at the hands of the worst band of criminals in the nation's history...
