How they voted: Who in the U.S. House chose to surrender democracy in Iraq

These members of the U.S. House of Representatives yesterday voted for an Iraq war surrender date.

For their cowardice in the face of the ruthless forces of tyranny, these people can never again be trusted to defend democracy and freedom.

Historic betrayal. These 218 representatives of the United States of America have voted to condemn 25 million Iraqis to generations of genocide and repression, and to turn the Middle East into a permanent haven for terrorists and despots committed to the mass destruction of lives and liberalism.

Two hundred and eighteen pseudo-liberals have sided with fascism. In the historic struggle for freedom, they have earned a permanent place of shame.
