The Politico reports that even the most egregious of Democrats (hint: his name rhymes with Burtha) have admitted that the U.S. military has won the war and that Iraq is a non-issue for voters.And Don Surber points out that the New York Times is scraping the last smidgen of residue at the bottom of the "quagmire" barrel. The Times has resorted to scooping all other media outlets on... Iraq's illicit car-washes.

If the Democrats have any smarts, they'll simply stay on message- which is, and always was, "Bring The Troops Home!"
ReplyDeleteNow, if the Helmetheads (i.e., war-mongering Republicans) wish to redefine "victory" as returning to 2005 casualty levels, that's great. If they want to pretend we've established a democracy in Iraq, that's also fine.
But you must realize who is going to benefit from the troops coming back home. My money is on the party that has been trying to bring them home.
oy.
ReplyDeletedavid dsavid david david...
oy.
we still have troops in germany and japan and south korea and the balkans.
war is dirty business and a lot of places don't become as peaceful as your neck of th woods in florida overnight.
the fact that iraqis are returning says more than you or any dem/dove/leftie appeaser.
if you anjd the dems had had your way then al qaeda and iran would've won.
bye.
maybe we can send 5000 troops to paris to save sarkozy from his inifada!
tho david and his friends would recommend just ceding the banlieue's and a few arrondisements - the 19th and 20th for starters and the 8th.
and so on.
david: people who love liberty and western civ haver to draw the line somewhere: better there than here.
NOW BYE!
