The Mandate that Isn't

Amy Proctor reports on tonight's veto and makes the following salient point (that the MSM has been working overtime to obscure):

Joe Biden, D-Delaware, and the Democrats are bitter and angry that their supposed mandate on the war in Iraq keeps failing. They managed to pass bills in the House and Senate, after loading them down with unrelated pork to ensure passage (who wants to vote against Katrina aid?), but knew the bill would be vetoed by the President. If the Democrats really had a mandate on Iraq, they would have been able to pass their bill without the pork. If they really had a mandate on Iraq, they would be able to override the President’s veto. DOH!

So how does it feel Joe, to be reminded of the OTHER HALF of the country that doesn't think freedom is a gift from the government?
