I was asked by another freeper on a Murtha activism thread to post something here.

I've been informed Ollie North says for the first time he's hearing our soldiers wonder if we are going to lose the war because of the American public. He says Zarqawi was claiming victory after the recent spineless Senate vote for Warners bill and that Zarqawi has told his troops they have to just hold on a little longer.

This is what I've feared for most of this year. No one defending the mission and the loss of morale for our soldiers. The left wants another Vietnam and we're handing it to them on a silver platter. Color me disgusted.

We must not let this happen to our beloved troops.

A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and he carries his banners openly. But the traitor moves among those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the galleys, heard in the very hall of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor—he speaks in the accents familiar to his victims, and wears their face and their garment, and he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation—he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of a city—he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to be feared.......Cicero, 42 BC

I'm afraid the administration has waited too long before countering these defeatist nutjobs. Everyone praises Murtha for his former support for the war and his own personal service and heroism, BUT!! he's still a danged democrat, he's fallen in line with the rest. Methinks he was taken to the woodshed within the past week or so by his party leaders.

This is just sickening. Absolutely shameful! This is why Bush and the administration needs to get out front and smack this down.
I really hate liberals. And the limpy wimpy republicans that don't know how to stand up for anything!!

God bless our troops and our cause!!

I understand your anger Peach, but this isn't 1973 and the MSM no longer controls all media flow. We have the Internet and the new media to confront this problem.

We are in a much better position today to stop this. The left isn't doing anything I haven't expected from them, they always attack from the gutter.

What we need to fix is the representation in Congress, it isn't enough to just vote Republican, we need to elect the right Republicans.

Its business as usual in Washington, they live in a different world inside the beltway and until we make them understand the world has changed it will not stop.

This country is still under the spell of Political Correctness and a biased MSM doing everything it can to bring down this president including forging documents to rooting for the enemy.

People want to jump ship on the president because of Harriett Meir's, Katrina, the border, etc. but unless he has the support of his party to back him up he is severely handicapped. The president hasn't a chance to lead us in the direction we wish to go if Congress is stabbing him in the back.

Social Security fell on its face because Republicans didn't get behind him on the issue and Democrats just spread their propaganda until the issued died.

If the soldiers are getting the wrong message then the left is winning, we need to find a way to get the message we support them out and make them understand that most of what they hear is political and doesn't represent the average Americans point of view.

I think Rush has taken the idea of a caller and he is running with it. The adopt a soldier idea is great, and anyone who can obtain the words of Rush and understand what he is saying will be able to put what is happening here in the states into perspective.

As far as the traitorous politicians who are undermining the war, we need to attack without mercy until the back off, the president and vice president have already started, let's back them up.

The polls on the presidents low popularity is part lies by the Liberal media outlets that conduct them and part successful propaganda by the left asking questions to those who don't know any better what is happening.

We must fight back, we cannot give up, we can do this.
