Whoever sent me to that C-Span link has much to answer for.

That is the most disgusting display of lame pessimism and preemptive doubt I have ever heard.

Those voices!

Those idiots!

The General should not have to sit there for this and neither should we.

Looks like Code Pink had just enough time to give Lantos the written text for this hate speech before getting kicked out of the chamber.

Lantos just said no matter what is said the committees minds are made up so why is there a hearing?

Lantos is worse (understatement) than Skelton.

Escalation has failed, only a political settlement can solve this and that time has been squadered. maliki no inclination to compromise-refusing to cretae a true Iraqi army and non sectarian police force-just empty promises. Not acting for Iraq as whole but front man for shiites including notoriuos militias and death squads.

That is so true. My nephew would participate in all these protests (while in his early 20’s) and some of these goofball groups pay the kids to come disrupt these events.

In the meantime, a lady called up Laura Ingraham’s show today and said she saw a great bumper sticker on a marine’s car.
It said:
“Fighting for stupid liberals too”

Why do we have to listen to a bunch of professional gasbags whose minds are already made up (don’t confuse them with facts), in place of the testimony that they are supposed to have invited?

10 drinks: “Vast amount of Americans want our troops OUT”

It’s beer run time for me then.
Nascar Saturday night and the
NFL Sunday wiped me out. ;-)

This is what happens when OUR PEOPLE DO NOT VOTE!

You get spin miester dims who had their stupid comments already preapproved by the DNC, and they don’t give a SH*& about what the report says. DIMS and OBL are in the same sinking ship. They don’t care what General Petraeus has to say!

Lantos is a Holocaust survivor. Not a word on the Holocaust he and his fellow Dems would cause if they forced an American withdrawal. This is just sad and disgusting to watch.

I thought Patreaus was going to give a report but evidently Lantos is going to do it for him.

BLAME Maliki... OK Dem idiots... we pull the troops and Maliki turns to Amadmanjiahid in Iran and now Iran becomes the most powerful... nuclear country in the middle east... Israel is desimated and soon after the U.S. will fall...that obviously is the Democrat plan for Iraq

Can’t help but wonder what Patton would say and do in this situation. Has anyone ever slapped an entire political party before?
