IOW she wants the issue not the victory.

We are blessed with good enemies in this fight. The Islamic a$$holes are truly reprehensible in every way. If we cannot rally the American People against an enemy as manifestly evil as this, then there is nothing left of this country to defend, and we might as well go about making ourselves as comfortable as possible for whatever time we have left.

Amen

Pelosi plans to corner the burqa racket in the US.

Democrats do not take this war on terror seriously

Is Bush? After 3.5 years we're still an escort service for the Iraqi's. That's being serious about war?

Has "buyer's remorse" set in

I think that happened previously because they kept voting in Republicans and kept getting open-checkbook pork give-aways to the Country Club pals.

Republican control turned out to be a disappointment in many respects. Maybe the voters expected too much. But, there is an old saying: If you keep doing the same thing, don't expect a different result. Another vote for the Republican ticket was not going to provide a different result.

Maybe the GOP wakes up. If they don't before 08, they won't be in power for decades. They brought it on themselves.

This war can't be won by feat arms short of genocide or Islamocide. Neither of which is tenable.

Never thought I'd wish for a sequel to 9/11. But this kind of unimaginable idiocy makes me wonder...

Amen, Amen, AMEN!

A real magnificent bastard would have dragged these attitudes of Pelosi out into the open a long, long time ago. He would have made Dukakis look like Patton compared to her!

As giddy as Dems have been about winning, I haven't heard a single one say they think Pelosi is ready to be Commander-in-Chief or Leader of the Free World. This is a woman who would laugh off Bush's National Guard service but who lists her qualification to protect this country is being a grandmother!

Oh I don't disagree. And while the Republicans certainly deserved to get "fired." The problem is that normally when you fire somebody you have somebody better to replace them with, and that is not the case here.

Perfectly predictable.

And perfectly awful.

It's natural to want to "stop the killing." But extremely naive to just pull out without a victory. Retreat and failure will signal to everyone, friend and foe alike, that America will not fight.

Many, many more Americans will die in the long run than would have otherwise.

I hope I'm wrong. I fear I'm right.

She isn't going to be, that role is reserved for 'Her Thighness.'

I've noticed over the past two days that the 'Rats new buzz word for the war is "situation." I've already heard it a couple of times from their mouthpieces. Seems like they are setting themselves and everyone else up for abandoning the war in the name of good ol' fashion 1990s problem resolution. Pathetic!

Pelosi Says Iraq Is Not "a War To Win"

No wonder the Dem party kept her tied up and gagged in a shabby San Fran warehouse while Obama was on TV everywhere.

The Dems are having Vietnam flashbacks. Enjoy it, America, this is what you voted for.

Nancy Pelosi should close her eyes and imagine thugs from a Sharia Court uprooting the vines in her precious Napa Valley vineyards. She should picture in her mind's eye the ax-wielding religious policeman as he hacks into seasoned oak casks bearing some of California's finest wines.

Then she should ask herself if this war is worth winning.

If this is not a war to win bring the troops home from Iraq and Afghanistan now. America's finest should not be fighting if they will not be allowed to win. This is now the Democrat's war and they are determined to lose it.

Good point. I'm in LA. After 9/11, the studios all beefed up security - which I found laughable. Hollywood is Osama's best friend and primary propaganda tool.

If you are right about U.S. reaction to the next terror attack on American soil, then the war is over and we have lost.
