We know that Republican Rep. Deborah Pryce (OH-15) supposedly represents our district. However, in reality, she just repeats the Republican talking points. Rather than have a human being represent us, we have a Republican robot. Get a load of what Pryce said during the recent Iraq resolution debate (LINK):
"If it meant anything, it would be a different argument, but it won’t bring one soldier home sooner and it won’t change the course of this war. It has no teeth, no muscle; but most of all, it has no positive value whatsoever for us as a Nation at war. Some people say it sends a message to our Commander in Chief, and I believe that that is true. But that message pales compared to the message it sends to our enemies; our enemies, who pledge that their jihad will last until their religion prevails in the world; not until we are out of Iraq, until their religion prevails in the world; our enemies, who believe it is their religious duty to bring hostility to the West and to America. They are tuned in today, Mr. Speaker, you better believe it, and no doubt they are cheering." - Rep. Deborah Pryce (R-OH)
I can only think of one word to describe Pryce's speech and that word is........BALONEY.
Are we not to discuss the reasons for the war? Can't we talk about ways to get out of this war? How many more of our young men and women have to die because Pryce and her Republicans won't take the first step toward ending this war? Does Pryce speak for our enemies? Does she really know what they think? Pryce also doesn't speak for our troops. Our men and women in uniform are Democrats, Republicans, Independents, conservatives, and liberals. Deborah Pryce does not know what every soldier and Marine thinks, and therefore, she should not assume that she speaks for them.
Also, some Republicans said that the recent debate on the Iraq resolution was a waste of time? The members of the House and the Senate are our salaried employees. It doesn't matter if they work overtime because they don't get overtime pay. I don't care if they work 100 hours per week, just get this war over with and bring our military home.
