DEMOCRATS ENDORSE PREEMPTIVE WAR - AGAINST PETRAEUS

NYTIMES:

Leading Democrats today pre-emptively assailed the expected findings on Iraq due this week from Gen. David H. Petraeus as “dead, flat wrong” and said President Bush’s likely call for continued patience in the war would simply extend an “unconscionable” and “completely unacceptable” policy.

DISGUSTING. AND THEY DON'T EVEN REALIZE IT.

The Dems are forgetting a few basic things: Americans respect their military; and they generally want people to get a fair hearing.

This tactic - of besmirching our military, (as exemplified by Biden's remarks today on MTP and by Schumer's slanderous remarks against our troops) - will have a big effect - AN UNINTENDED ONE.

I PREDICT: THERE WILL BE A BACKLASH.

UPDATE: 3 HOURS LATER AND GLENN REYNOLDS "STEALS" MY LINE! YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAY: IMITATION IS THE SINCEREST FORM OF FLATTERY!

[WAIT A SECOND... WAS THIS REALLY A RIP-OFF? HMMM... I DID SEND THIS POST TO HIM AND 20 OTHER BIG BLOGGERS RIGHT AFTER PUBLISHING IT. (THEY KNOW WHO THEY ARE!)
