Time to break out your white feathers: the cowards are on parade in Washington.

The 51 - 46 vote in the Senate and 218-208 in the House, which would issue a mandatory troop pullout of Iraq as early as July 1 and no later than October 1, was mainly along party lines. Thankfully, President Bush can still veto the bill, as it did not receive enough votes to override a presidential veto. Unfortunately, the message it sends is bad enough in and of itself.

Oh, and John McCain? Mr. War Hero himself who supports our troops soooo much, and is 100% behind the War on Terror, could not be bothered to cast a vote against this traitorous and cowardly bill. I wonder how he would have handled this as President.

Democrats gloated, as the traitorous cowards were able to tell our troops that they don't support them. They don't believe in their ability to win this war.

Hey folks, it really is Vietnam all over again! Look at that!

The cowardly Dems have already made up their minds. Harry Reid said it himself: "This war is lost." Presidential candidate and Congressman Duncan Hunter called for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid's resignation following the demoralizing comments, saying, "The statement by Senator Reid, which can only have a demoralizing effect on our troops and an effect of encouragement of the adversary, Sen. Reid should resign his position as the leader of the United States Senate."

But why should he, when there is so much more troop demoralization that could take place?

The traitorous cowards who "support our troops" have made their message clear. War isn't nice, so we should pull out. People are dying, so we should quit. This is just plain hard, so we should give up. Our military can't do it, so we should leave.

They don't support our troops. They don't care about the possible consequences of pulling out. They don't care about what it will mean for the Iraqi people, or Al Qaeda, or the morale of our troops, or the safety of the American people. Pulling out would have an adverse affect on all of the aforementioned things.

They. Do. Not. Care.

Our troops now know that their government isn't standing behind them, and worse even, that their elected officials don't believe in them to get the job done.

If we were to pull out, there's a strong possibility of civil war in Iraq. Al Qaeda could reclaim Iraq as a stronghold. And all the work, everything we've accomplished, would be erased.

And how about the message it sends to any enemies of the United States? We've just given them a blueprint on how to defeat the powerful United States of America military: hang on long enough, and they'll just give up. Signed, sealed, delivered, baby.

But to the Defeatocrats, it doesn't matter. And they gloated and smiled and smugly stood before reporters in a press conference to bask in their infinite cowardice.

If only Islam allowed alcohol. Osama bin Laden would be breaking out the champagne right about now.

As Van Helsing noted on MoonBattery, "If this bill were to become law, the Bush strategy of combating Islamic terror by taking the battle to the enemy and spreading democracy in the Middle East will have been officially abandoned in favor of the Democrat strategy of distracting ourselves with imaginary problems like global warming until the terrorists hit us again on our homeland."

Wake up, America. The surrendercrats do not care about our troops. They don't care about our safety. They don't care about the Middle East. They don't care about the United States, period. All they care about are themselves and their own careers, and they've shown that hypocrisy in every arena, from the war on terror to imaginary global warming.

They want us to become Europe, rife with dhimmitude and corrupt with the bureaucracy, condescension and hypocrisy of an elite class. We need to put a stop to this.

Some have suggested sending white feathers, an international symbol for cowardice, to the leaders of the Senate and the House. Gateway Pundit has white feather postcards you can print out and mail to your favorite cowardly Defeatocrat. Cafe Press has packages of 8 postcards for only $6.59. Or, you can go the Michelle Malkin route and send them actual feathers, individually or in bulk.

Below is a list of address for the Senators and Representatives who issued a middle finger to our military and to Iraq. Let them know how you feel.

As always, I welcome your thoughts.
