In a time when we could use a little backbone, Frm House Majority Leader Tom Delay reminds us that there are still those who will call things the way they are.

“Democratic leaders are acting like traitors by opposing the Iraq war, and President Bush must answer with a toughened stance, former U.S. House Majority Leader Tom DeLay said Monday.
U.S. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi “are getting very, very close to treason,” DeLay said in a meeting with the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.

“We have people dying,” he said. “Not just our soldiers, but innocent citizens dying in Iraq and Afghanistan at the hands of these evil people, and you have your elected leaders making these kinds of statements that embolden the enemy. It’s unbelievable.”

Reid said yesterday the Democratic-controlled Congress would push legislation within days requiring the withdrawal of U.S. combat troops from Iraq beginning Oct. 1, with a goal of completing the pullout six months later. He said Bush is in “a state of denial” over the war.”

I would submit that Reid and Pelosi, Murtha and other democrats - along with other RINOs have already committed treason.

Harry Reid is a pimple on Lady Liberty’s ass, and Pelosi isn’t far from that description herself. All in all throughout the last three years these malcontents have shown no shame in shaming themselves with their antics designed to do nothing else but to thwart US efforts in the Global War on Terror.

I stand with Tom and others who enjoin the President to stand tough against such people and to call them who they are, truly traitors of the United States of America and a disgrace to our troops.
