It was no surprise when Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) came out a few hours ago in enthusiastic support of President Obama’s Afghanistan policy. (“We’ve said for some time that we must refocus our resources on threats like al-Qaeda and the Taliban in the Afghanistan/Pakistan border region,” Reid said, without identifying the “we.”)
Now he’s joined by Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), who cheered the strategy and vowed to work with Obama to implement it. The full statement follows after the jump:
I commend the President’s announced strategy for Afghanistan today which includes a surge of forces and a renewed commitment to dismantling Al Qaeda and combating the Taliban. Republicans are supportive of these national objectives and will work with the administration to develop policies to secure greater cooperation from the government of Pakistan to rid the tribal areas of terrorist sanctuaries. We are fortunate to have Secretary Gates, Admiral Mullen and General Petraeus manage this surge and the counterinsurgency strategy as well.

Illuminate these Senators names on every billboard across the United States. These should be recorded and go down in history along with traitor Benedict Arnold.
Don't let these lawmakers distract you from major issues, such as E-Verify and imminent AMNESTY?
They are the ones who sold out American Workers by stamping out the federal E-Verify, to identify millions of ILLEGAL ALIENS IN THE WORKPLACE. With 10 million American jobless, these legislators left the door open for foreign labor. REMEMBER THEIR NAMES IN THE NEAR FUTURE. THEY REMOVED IT FROM THE STIMULUS/ OMNIBUS SPENDING BILL

Hey buddy, this is off topic here, but you know what, here's why E-verify was taken out. IT DOESN'T WORK. It has more false positives than acceptable and that makes it possible to exclude tons of legitimate workers from being given employment. Just do us all a favor. Spam another website.
