fuck the republican party. my god, they're all but accusing daschle of treason for saying "uh, where are you guys going with this?"

Senate Minority Leader Trent Lott (R-Miss.) issued a statement saying: "How dare Senator Daschle criticize President Bush while we are fighting our war on terrorism, especially when we have troops in the field? He should not be trying to divide our country while we are united."

House Republicans soon chimed in. Majority Whip Tom DeLay (R-Tex.) called Daschle's remarks "disgusting." Rep. Thomas M. Davis III (Va.), chairman of the House GOP's campaign committee, said Daschle's "divisive comments have the effect of giving aid and comfort to our enemies by allowing them to exploit divisions in our country."

Yeah, no shit. I heard that he said this and my first thought was, "FINALLY, a Democrat who's not afraid to call bullshit once in a while."

They don't call bullshit often enough, that's for damn sure.
