Dems? With spines? No way!

Apparently tired of passing non-binding resolutions, now Senate and House Democrats are getting prepped for the real fight over Iraq. Particularly in the Senate, where legislation is being prepared that would "effectively revoke the broad authority granted to the president in the days Saddam Hussein was in power, and leave U.S. troops with a limited mission as they prepare to withdraw," according to CNN.

The Senate, however, couldn't even get a non-binding resolution to pass, and with Joe Lieberman about to become a Republican because of his pro-war stance, chances are dicey at best that the Dems will be able to get anything solid passed.

Meanwhile, the Big Dick has decided he's taking matters into his own hands as far as Iran. He's not going to wait and see what the Decider wants, oh no! He's going to throttle Ahmadinejad with his bare hands, that dirty towel-headed camelfucker!

Whatever the U.S. winds up doing, though, it's going to have to do without its old whipping boy, Tony Blair:

The London Times reported earlier Friday that senior British government officials fear Bush will launch an attack on Iran before his final term in office ends in a little less than two years.

They fear that Bush will seek to "settle the Iranian question through military means," the daily reported, quoting unidentified senior British government sources.

"He (Bush) will not want to leave it unresolved for his successor," one of the sources told The Times.

A day earlier British Prime Minister Tony Blair insisted on BBC Radio that there is "no planning" under way for an attack on Iran, adding that he knew of "nobody" in Washington who was planning an invasion either.

"You can't absolutely predict every set of circumstances that comes about but sitting here now talking to you, I can tell you Iran is not Iraq," Blair said.

I guess the Brits have finally wised up, since their royal family is now at risk thanks to shrub's warmongering. Congrats to the U.K.
