Tells you everything you need to know about how the RATS think of our troops.

However, I'm waiting for a Republican, any Republican to call out this POS Durbin for what he said about our troops. And also to call out the RATS for putting him out there as a spokesman tonight. Good thing I like the sound of crickets chirping.

Arlen Specter does not count as a cross over.

Olympia "the xazi" (greek for fool) Snow does not count as a cross over.

Even Trent Lott does not count as a cross over.

"Chris Matthews calling off the names of the GOP members who won't support the president."

Do you think he got the list from this thread?

Agreed. McCain, whatever his many other faults, is solid in the war.

His only flaw is the matter of torture - but I give him a pass on that one, simply because I figure that it relates to the fact that he was regularly tortrued for half a decade.

McInierney was awesome.

He's calm and resolute and I like him too.

I say we call Pelosi's office in the morning in mass and DEMAND Congress cut off the funds.....

Great idea. Make 'em put up or shut up.

Here's my plan.

If Baghdad doesn't shape up, build a new capital in a more salutary location.

Oh yes, it's all about the delivery of the speech, not the substance! Gesh

Hiya, onyx! Thought it was a great speech. Let's win this fight. God bless America, God bless our President, and God bless our troops.

He sure has gone to the dark side. Knew something was up when our two Senators didn't show up for the dinner.

Should have walked out on his speech to an OK GOP banquet when he disgusted me but the people that I was sitting with said to not do that because it wouldn't be nice. Dissing my President sure wasn't nice and if I had it to do over again, I would have walked.

That's for sure. Don't hold your breath. The spinelessness of the Republicans is breathtaking.

LOL - while our troops are cleaning up Baghdad, maybe they can do something about that enemy headquarters there at the Palestione Hotel.


Indeed.

It's about the same.

Fox: Gates to announce "growing" the military in the morning at 8:30.

That ought to make the Dems' heads explode.

" He's hitting a home run. I love it."

I think this was the best speech I have ever heard President Bush deliver.
It wasn't flowery and full of soaring rhetoric, but,a long overdue tutorial on exactly what Iraq is all about.
Why it's important, who we are fighting, how we are fighting ,how important Iraq is to the WOT, etc.
Probably should have been given years ago.
Durbin looked foolish and typically Democrat- he blended their cut and run philosophy with health care plans for Iraqis.

No they won't actually come out and say it because...they won't admit it...but the real majority of this country still want us to win over there...only the push poll majority they create for their nightly news want us to lose.
