Well, Saddam is dead.
The Baathists have been removed.
Whatever happens
from this point forward,
there's no reason not to say
we've already won.
The only issue the democrats ran on was Mark Foley.
“To the extent that Iraq was an issue in the war, where does Reid get off suggesting that the voters were calling for retreat from Iraq when they put the Democrats in charge? This is certainly not what the Democrats said they were going to do during the campaign, when they continually denied they wanted to abandon Iraq.”
Anyone paying attention could have read between the lines.
They are scared. If Iraq does not show progress, they are afraid that the Dims will win 60 seats in the next election.
“A wounded vet I met says the most important thing to do now is get out quickly”...” But it is a political fact that the voters want us to leave Iraq.”
Oh. Then by all means lets get out Brad!
Sorry Brad, but I don’t believe your “political fact”, as I am a voter, and I am also a veteran, but not a wounded one. But does “wounded vet” status trump my opinion? John McCain is a “wounded vet” and a former POW, so does his opinion trump your wounded vet? Neither of the two of us want out of Iraq. Maybe you could restate your opion to read “it’s a fact that the voters, less one or two, want us to leave Iraq”. At least then you you would be more accurate in your statement (democrat!).
SO HE SAID, WASHING HIS HANDS IN THE BLOOD OF THE PEOPLE HE CONDEMNED TO DEATH, OF THE BLOOD HE CAUSED TO BE SHED......
What if the rest of us - NOT a 51-49 vote margin of the Senate socialists, DON'T believe in washing our hands in blood again?
The democrat congress is the only group that has decided to lose in Iraq. This is very different from saying mistakes have been made.
Amen! Post of the day. Making mistakes is a far cry from surrender.
