It seems a new Osama tape has surfaced and bin Laden is really pissed with the Democrats.

"People of America: the world is following your news in regards to your invasion of Iraq, for people have recently come to know that, after several years of tragedies of this war, the vast majority of you want it stopped. Thus, you elected the Democratic Party for this purpose, but the Democrats haven't made a move worth mentioning. On the contrary, they continue to agree to the spending of tens of billions to continue the killing and war there."

Don Surber says not.

After a month-long vacation, Democrats returned to the nation's capital this week, an army in disarray. They left in August confident that Republicans would go home, get chewed out about the war, and raise the white flag. Instead, the Surge worked and the Democrats are losing it.

S.A. Miller at the Washington Times reported:

Rank-and-file Democrats in Congress are criticizing the party's leaders for allowing the White House to sap momentum from the antiwar movement during the August recess.

"The White House is taking great advantage of the Democrats not pushing back," said Rep. Lynn Woolsey, California Democrat and co-founder of the antiwar Out of Iraq Caucus.

"We need bolder steps from the Democrats," she said. "The people of this country are waiting for some leadership -- some bold leadership -- from the people that they elected to be the majority of the House and the Senate."

I think it is well past time that the Democrats made up their collective minds and decide whose side are they on.
