GOP Measure Forces House Debate on War

Ten hours of debate for a 3+ year war. That boils down to 250 dead service men and women for each hour. How gracious of these pathetic clowns to show such compassion. Does that mean they'll debate through lunch also?
GOP Measure Forces House Debate on War: "'I can't help but feel through eyes of a combat-wounded Marine in Vietnam, if someone was shot, you tried to save his life. . . . While you were in combat, you had a sense of urgency to end the slaughter, and around here we don't have that sense of urgency,' said Rep. Wayne T. Gilchrest (Md.), a usually soft-spoken Republican who has urged his leaders to challenge the White House on Iraq. 'To me, the administration does not act like there's a war going on. The Congress certainly doesn't act like there's a war going on. If you're raising money to keep the majority, if you're thinking about gay marriage, if you're doing all this other peripheral stuff, what does that say to the guy who's about ready to drive over a land mine?'"
