War On Reality Part 11 ; Dems Pencil In Benchmarks ; Bush Gets Eraser

Did we all fall asleep and wake up in some sort of parallel universe? The Democrats have given the Republicans the war funding bill, which is due to go through by Friday.

They've done it without a pull-out date.

Without a set of compulsory benchmarks that the President must maintain and achieve.

But we do have benchmarks, which Mr Bush is able to just waive and ignore if he sees fit.

This looks like giving a highschool student a self-assessment report card and told to 'fill it in yourself'.

Tell The Truthiness ; Democrats, what happened? Anyone got an explanation?
