If we don't wave the white flag fast enough in Iraq, we'll get stuck with a victory and nothing could set a worse precedent — at least for those like House Majority Whip James Clyburn, South Carolina Democrat.

Once again, the democrats playing political games, instead of doing what they're suppose to do: represent our interests. More upsetting though, is the complete fabrication of facts by Chris Matthews as sighted in this very strong article.

Politicians don't do what we want anymore, they do what they want.

“Politicians don’t do what we want anymore, they do what they want.”

True - until they’re punished with enough embarrassing exposure to make them backpedal. Then of course they claim how sorry they feel if we “misinterpreted” what they said.

Well said G8! Maybe there is still hope, but I’m probably acting pretty naive.
