Bill Schneider Of CNN Is A Hack

Bill Schneider at CNN has an article at CNN.com that democrats want it both ways. They want to be tough on Bush and set a timeline for redeployment, but they don't want to cut off money to the troops.

So the troops will get funded with no timelines for withdrawal. But most Democrats can say, "Don't blame me -- I voted against it."

Pretty clever. Maybe too clever. Because a Democratic Congress allowed it to happen.

Well, what would you have them do Bill? They are trying to compromise, they are trying to do the work of the people and still take care of the troops. Why aren't you saying that Bush forced it into happening? Wouldn't you be standing there with your look of serious disdain berating the democrats for their cutting of troop funding in time of war? You're the one trying to have it both ways. You want to be gullible and stupid.

Here's the question Bill, have you ever questioned Bush's motives? Have you said he's bull-headed or using the troops to political advantage? Have you ever once said the republicans are being too clever by hiding behind the Bush veto? Have you once questioned the vast difference between what Bush says about the troops and what he does?

No, you gave them a free ride for over six years. You didn't say they were too clever when they passed every law that Bush ask for. Did you say they were clever when they legislated away some of our rights without any safeguards. Did you say they were clever when they cut the democrats out of the legislative process over the last six years? You didn't say they were too clever when they lied us into this war. The people voted for a change, have you asked why the republicans and Bush refuse to compromise?

The democrats are trying to get a timetable set up for the withdrawal of our troops and benchmarks for those worthless bastards in Baghdad to work towards. All Bush says is that he will veto any bill that doesn't give him a blank check. Have you asked the republicans in congress why he deserves more money and more time? Have you asked them why their policies have failed over the last four years. Have you asked them why they want it not both ways but every way?

Bill, have you once asked the question why there are no moderate republicans in congress? Have you questioned their moderate rhetoric and far right-wing votes?

Nope, you have questioned none of those things. You're a hack, Bill.
