Why hasn't anyone called Carter a Traitor yet?

I don't think voters are upset with Republicans in particular. I think voters are upset with Congress because they thought they were electing a Congress that would do something to bring the war to an end, and that hasn't happened. If you (you the voter) want to be upset at anyone about that, be upset at the Democrats, because the Republicans are doing exactly what you could have predicted, which is stand by their man.

Since Bush was bound to veto anything he didn't like, and the Dems don't have a veto-proof majority, this was not unexpected, but apparently voters are disappointed.
