The surrender strategy solidifies:
A defiant, Democratic-controlled Senate approved legislation Thursday calling for the withdrawal of U.S. combat troops from Iraq within a year, propelling Congress closer to an epic, wartime veto confrontation with President Bush.
Meanwhile, back in Persia, "deplorable" has been downgraded to "grave concern":
The UN Security Council has agreed a statement voicing "grave concern" at Iran's capture of 15 British sailors.
It also calls on Tehran to allow the UK consular access to the personnel.
The statement is a watered-down version as the UK wanted it to "deplore" Iran's detention of the Britons and call for their immediate release.
Just sayin'.

Ok...they went from "deplorable" to "grave concern"....
I guess the NEXT step would be to say that's it's "pretty darned not nice".

You're not arguing, Leo, you're just poking things with a stick to see if you get a rise, ...
Guess I need a bigger stick.
Let me know when that happens, ...
