Unanswered Prayers: Will the Baker/Hamilton Commission get this war right?(Michael Ledeen)

I am not sure they could find their way across the street. They probably think they are already on the other side.

[Mr. Silverback]

A god that needs man to carry out his dirty work is impotent!

It is made quite clear that in the Bible that God's followers are "laborers together with Him." In other words, he doesn't need us to do anything, but He does afford us the privilege.

I've got a feeling the commission is political cover for a dressed up version of cut and run.

I sure hope I'm wrong. I was very sure, prior to this and the appointment of Gates, that Bush would never go wobbily. I'm starting to rethink that, unfortunately. Again, I desperately hope I'm wrong. Frankly, we need more troops, not to withdraw. McCain is right on about that.

[Lurker]

Mr. Ledeen is a very, very smart man.

Sadly though I think this 'Commission' will give the President enough political cover to cut and run.

By "dirty work" I explicitly mean the killing in the name of God (or Allah). ;-)

[Mr. Silverback]

Ah, sorry about that.

If 41 had done the job right in the first place, this trip would not be necessary.

[Trunk 71-74]

Thanks. Just remember: Keep your stick on the ice, and we're all in this together. ;-)
