Joe Biden Abdicates Senate Oversight of Iraq War

The Democrats now control both houses of Congress. The American people have clearly indicated that they have had enough of the Iraq mess. Latest polls indicate that only 21% of Americans approve of our 'Dear Leader's' handling of the Iraq war.

So what position does one of the most powerful Democrats on Capitol Hill take on the war? We get this pap---

"There is nothing a United States Senate can do to stop a president from conducting his war," Biden said. "The only thing that is going to change the president's mind, if he continues on a course that is counterproductive, is having his party walk away from his position."

Senator Biden, do you know anything at all about history? In 1975, Congress cut off all funding for the Vietnam War, despite entreaties from President Ford. Why is the Democratic Party so passive and prostrate before our idiot president--who responds to the election results by escalating the conflict.

The U.S. is rapidly drifting from being a 'Proto-Fascist' state (John Dean's description) to full-blown Fascism, where elections are meaningless and real power rests in the hands of giant corporate entities & a corrupt Executive branch.
