“Setting a date certain for withdrawal will send a chill up the spine of every Iraqi who has dared to stand with America.”

Washington, D.C. – U.S. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell

Some great stuff in his comments.

“Republicans are ready for this debate.”

YAWN!

"Son, a traitor never gives up. We, together, one day, will bring America to its knees and take it from Super Power to laughing stock... Have faith my boy..."

Mitch lays it out well....

Elections have consequences.

Democrats dont have a choice in this. They have to force withdrawal while they can still blame it on Bush.

They know their constituents are stupid, that if Democrats force us to withdraw they can say it was Georges Bush's fault.

If we win this war they lose in 2008. If we are still there they will be forced to withdraw by their constituents and they will have to take the rap for what goes down.

Well said by Senator McConnell.

Again, I am forced to ask...

Is there NO ONE who will dare call this TREASON?

If you click on the link, you can get to an e-mail form (got to click a Kentuky county first) to send Mitch a note of support.

I did....he's worth supporting a lot more than the dolts at the RNC!

“Osama Bin Laden and his followers have repeatedly said that the U.S. does not have the stomach for a long fight with the terrorists. Passage of the Reid Joint Resolution will be the first concrete sign since Sept. 11, 2001, that he was right on target.



How true this is....the US is doomed to be attacked again before these idiots get it!

[highlander_UW]

I say the democrats need to set a date when they will stop being traitors!

[Miss Didi]

Bravo, Mitch!

Now will the Drive Bys take a breather from the (pant-pant) Gonzales story and report this?

(Is FR still slow as molasses in January?)

The only way the Democrats win is if America loses Iraq and the Democrats are pulling all the strings to make sure they win. Next step for the Democrats will be to pick up arms, go to Iraq and fight our troops themselves.

Thanks for posting this. It cuts to the heart of what the crowd that advocates retreat is ignoring. Furthermore, if Osama et al got the impression we were paper tigers after Somalia, what will they learn from our withdrawal now? I daresay no one will ever count on us in the future.

It is clear that many Islamic terrorist organizations and autocratic governments have a stake in trying to prevent us from succeeding to establish order in Iraq. They have pulled out all the stops to try to create a civil war in order to prevent our success. even so, we've made steady progress as the Iraqi people have sickened of having outsiders causing trouble. My sense is that we CAN succeed if we can stop the Democrats from snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

Thank you Senator, you've made me very proud to be a Republican. Keep up the good work and stay constant in your neverending battle with the America hating traitors, the Democrats. Since the Democrats are on the side of Osama perhaps they should make a peace trip to visit him in the hiding place of his half-baked war room. Is a visit like that something the Clinton/Reid/Pelosi crowd would attend? I'm sure they would happily travel to Pakistan in order to gush and grovel before the great Satan, Osama.

"Republicans are ready for this debate."

I hope so...and I hope they are ready to continue the debate until the win it!
