What no Quagmire?

The Ragister has a headlined article where
CommieTommie "Harkin calls for U.S. troops to withdraw from Iraq by Dec. 31". As my headline indicates, the major news is that he didn't call it a quagmire. Come to think of it, the Quagmire character on Fox's The Family Guy does resemble CommieTommie...giggity, giggity!
