WE WON'T BACK DOWN.


Mr. Reid said. “I wish they would vote as well as they talk.”

1. Well I wont back down
no I wont back down
You can stand me up at the gates of hell
But I wont back down

Gonna stand my ground, wont be turned around
And Ill keep this world from dragging me down
Gonna stand my ground and I wont back down

Hey baby, there aint no easy way out
Hey I will stand my ground
And I wont back down.

Well I know whats right, I got just one life
In a world that keeps on pushing me around
But Ill stand my ground and I wont back down

Hey baby there aint no easy way out
Hey I will stand my ground
And I wont back down
No, I wont back down

-- Tom Petty

11. And here's a shoutout to my Jersey boy Senator Bob Menendez
From my other fave Jersey boys Bon Jovi!

So you want to be a cowboy
Well you know its more that just a ride
Guess you got to know the real thing
If you want to know the other side
Aint nobody riding shotgun
In this world tonight

And when you spit, you better mean it
You got to make em all believe it
If youre gonna be the one

Stick to your gun
Aint nobody gonna hurt you, baby
You can go for the trigger
But only if you have to
Aim from the heart
Some will love and some will course you, baby
And you can go to war
But only if you have to
Its only if you have to

So you want to be the big time
Some people have to drag you down
Theres no living in the backseat
If youre gonna drive through town
And when you pray for independence
Boy, you better stand your ground

You got to give it all you got now
Or you might get shot down
Fight hard until the battle is won

Stick to your gun
Aint nobody gonna hurt you, baby
You can go for the trigger
But only if you have to
Aim from the heart
Some will love and some will course you, baby
And you can go to war
But only if you have to
But only if you have to

7. So What You're Sayin Is That You Made It Up And There Was No Such Authorization. Gotcha!
I love how some here like to make up their own silly facts that have no bearing in reality, just so they can bash democrats. It's so goddamn amusing to watch. :hi:

9. No. That's NOT what I'm saying. Look at the PDF and quit playing your fucking word games.
You asked for a link and I gave you one. It's as simple as that. I don't find you or your projections the least bit amusing.

10. That Is What You're Saying, And The Link Proves It.
Unless you'd like to point out where Dems really did vote on authorizing war against Iran.

My post stands pal. Sorry.

12. Don't your posts ALWAYS stand?
I don't know what I would do without you inserting your abrasive and rude projections into my world every now and then. You're such a fucking ray of sunshine. The pleasure is all mine.

13. I don't think it was the same kind of bill as the Iraqi War Resolution
It authorizes a study I believe.

4. The Chimp has made and will continue to make monkeys out of America.
Reid can only talk talk but won't walk the walk. So sad, but true.

:cry:
