"The president is not doing that. He had a little meeting that really didn't amount to much. I think there should be, as the Iraqi Study Group said, strenuous, diplomatic negotiations with all the parties mentioned. I personally am not going to Iran, but that's up to individual members," Reid said.

The ISG has a lot of idiotic suggestions in it. The Dems are stupid enough to think it is a mandate.

Trying to play ball with Syria and Iran right now is counterproductive to say the least. And the appearances given off by that sort of thing...well, it's precisely what the Dems want.

Actually, they are using the ISG report as an excuse to circumvent Executive Branch Powers. They are not being stupid. They know exactly what they are doing here. It is not about talking to Syria or Iran. Is is about neutering the office of the Presidency. This is a coup. They want to make the case that you can negotiate with our enemy, no matter what the cost to our country. They want to prove to the naysayers that the peace-at-any-cost Party was right in 2004 when they said that they could make the world like us again.

They are Liberals before they are Americans and they will do whatever necessary to regain power and silence dissenters. There is a pattern with these people and right now, they are following the path of George McGovern in 1974.
