"..."Our message to the president is clear. It is time to begin ending this war -- not next year, not next month -- but today..."
For the beaste to take this position now, which amounts to surrender, before the primaries have even started, means one of two things. Either the polls say that she can actually believe that we're losing, or that she can easily ignore this position later if things change.
Poll-watching is a sport in DC, and watching the poll-takers is a favourite sport of mine. "The polls indicate that 65% of the American People are tired of the Iraq war, and want it to end now!" Then I remember that 85% of the American People told their elected representatives that they better damn-well not pass any 'Shamnesty' bill, and the pollsters missed that one completely. That makes poll-watching fun.
The war in Iraq is winding down, and is going to be a win. Even the traitor-Murtha seems to realize that. As November approaches, Iran is busy making their A-Bombs, and their Nuclear Facilities will most certainly be destroyed by the USA at the most politically opportune moment. But when is that?
The next two new moons, oddly enough, occur on November 9th and December 9th - both weekends, when the kids are at home. The new moon is when the Black Bombers, the F-117 and the B-2, are truly invisible. In January and February, the new moons are mid-week.
The closer to the primaries we get, the more tightly the candidates get tied to their profound statements. It doesn't matter what the dhimmicRAT candidates say - they're liars, so they'll say anything. It does matter what the pubbie candidates say now because, IMHO, Americans like wins and winners, and have no use for losers!
From a political standpoint, it would probably be better to begin the resolution of the Iran-problem before our primaries start.
Most Americans (that 85% mentioned above) will cheer wildly when the USA lowers-the-boom on Iran, and helps clean up some other unfinished business in the Middle-East. Any politicos on the wrong side of our winning will have a hard time getting elected anywhere but San Fransisco and Vermont.
I'm goin' for November 9th ............................ FRegards
