Desperate for Defeat (The Democrats' greatest fear is an America that's winning.)

Put quite simply, the Democrats are psychologically and politically invested in an American defeat. It would be politically suicidal for them to openly advocate they want this to happen but this is the effect of their denunciation of American policy in the Middle East. They don't care if we lose as long as they get back into power. The Democrats' world view may be loony and morally repugnant but as strategery it has much to commend it, playing as it does on Americans' ignorance of things (abetted by the MSM) abroad and a natural desire to stop being the world's policeman. In an earlier age, such a position would not have been a matter of life and death for America. With 9/11 all that changed - and isolationism pace is no longer a tenable position since we no longer have two big oceans to serve as moats to keep us safe from distant quarrels. Thanks to air travel, they can arrive almost instantly and inflict the greatest lethality imaginable upon a free society. The Democrats do not understand the old ways of doing things will never work again - even as their demagoguery endangers Americans' safety abroad and at home in this century.

From their actions it's clear that Dems DO WANT THE US TO LOSE, and lose badly.

I have to agree with you, but I find it interesting to ask "Why?"

I assume that if a 'Rat president would have had the cajones to lead the country to arms in response to the war on terror (a hypothetical assumption, I admit), the majority of 'Rats would be pulling for him and our country. In fact, I have no doubt that the 'Icans would have rallied around him. But because we have an 'Ican president (doesn't matter that it's Bush), the 'Rats at first wanted to ensure that the country wouldn't rally around him, and now they want him--and us--to lose. I think this behavior is easy for them, as it plays to their inherent anti-American values.

You are a fine editor - good job!

LOL!

[Just A Nobody]

He mumbles and stutters constantly.

Hmmmmm, I have never noticed that the President stutters.....or mumbles. I must have missed those speeches.

[Lancer_N3502A]

DIMocRATS are nothing more than a collection of sell-outs and gutless traitors.

[jan in Colorado]

He is underestimated, that's for sure!

President Bush is a TERRIBLE communicator.

If your every public utterance was covered by the media, you might come off that way too.

The MSM loves showing his slip-ups. In this way, they have created a picture of GWB as a bumbler, which is believed by the gullible

I have heard him give some world-class speeches, and seen him communicate very, very well off-the-cuff.

I don't buy the MSM hype. That's for the sheeple.

The democrats actions may have allowed Iran and North Korea to continue their proxy war against America, thanks to in kind to both China and France, and obtain nuclear weapons to be used against the USofA. And, one must ask if these enemies of American would choose to destroy Corn Field County (Bush Country) or hit a sizeable city (Democrat Country)? Not so common common sense already answers this question if one is logical in the realities of warfare. If and when the first cities glow from the temperate fires of the Democratic Party's own hand by proxy, those who would enable this cobbled together party of Liberals (abortionists, gays, Jesse Jackson hate moungers, anti-Christians and socialists), and those who hate American will have declined in numbers and in their obsessive desire to hobble America at home and abroad.... The following elections will not empower the Democrates to continue their policy of obstructionism.

If Chicago was bombed, would Illiois vote Republican?

If LA, San Diego, San Fran & Seattle were hit by nukes, would Kalifornia and Washington vote Republican?

If NYC or Boston were hit by nukes, would NY State and Mass still vote Democrat.

The Corn Field dwellers are safe for now but one must wonder?

What is amazing is that the war critics will simultaneously cite Kay's and Duelfer's failures to find stockpiles of wmds as proof that the war was unnecessary and at the same time ignore or dismiss Kay's and Duelfer's findings of Hussein's labs and wmd preparations. And they will still claim that Hussein never had wmds even though the evidence there, the dead Kurdish children for example, is overwhelming.

The democrats are AINOs (Americans in name only).

W does well when Karen Hughes and Rove are in town to write his speeches.

W's remarks from an exportoranious situation is when W seems confused; and cannot express himself. Tony Blaire is a far better speaker than W.

[Rudder]

Put quite simply, the Democrats are psychologically and politically invested in an American defeat...

Well, sort of...but not completely accurate. What they really want is Bush's defeat, but if that means America's defeat, it's okay with them. Democrats have been slapped in the face, hard, twice: in 2000 and 2004. They want revenge and they're prepared to sacrifice America to get it.

At least that's the way I see it.

***If Chicago was bombed, would Illinois vote Republican?***

Yes. That is, after we stopped cheering.

Okay, seriously - IL already votes Republican. Take a look at 'the map'. Only a few stinking Blue counties gave it to Kerry and Gore before that. And until the fiasco of criminal ex gov George Ryan (RINO ) the state has historically been under Republican leadership.

America is the Democrats' (excepting the likes of Sen. Lieberman) only worldly enemy, but they have another One in Heaven.

One conclusion he missed is that while America must fight with "one hand tied behind it's back", the dems will fight dirty and use every trick in the book and that is OK with them.

When your entire world view is defined by the glorification of helpless victimhood, you can not rationalize it when your country is the only superpower.
