I received the following quote earlier and I thought it appropriate to the recent political disgrace, namely Nancy Pelosi and her gang of traitors:

"If you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed, if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not so costly, you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance for survival. There may be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no chance of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves."
-Churchill

And what is the point of delaying the release of the report when its contents are leaked now?

The die I think is near cast. There will be very substantial changes, and soon in Iraq, is my guess. Iraq's leadership will have to decide soon whether it wants partition or not, and do what it needs to stop it. Otherwise, it will just happen.

Yes, this has been Bush's plan for about the last two years.

They pre-leak it prior to release to increase public acceptance of its conclusions as being conventional wisdom.

I should add that this combined with the leaked memo from Hadley of a near no confidence in Maliki, is a rather significant one-two punch.

Why is Sandra Day O'Connor making military and foreign policy decisions?
She is not making any foreign policy decisions. The (Republican-dominated) Congress asked for her input (along with other commissioners), which they and the President will consider as another set of eyes with the best interest of the US in mind.

Love the quote, and he's so right.
I had a meeting today with liberals. What pea-heads these people are.

They have no clue what the hell is going on out there.

What Iraqi leadership?

The fact is the Iraqi leader we are backing right now is far too weak, we should be giving him one last chance at getting rid of Sadr or getting replaced.

Iraq needs a strongman and if Maliki isn't up to the task we need someone else. To hell with Iraqi democracy for the time being. We are fighting to make sure our mortal enemies don't carve up Iraq.

Bush has surrendered his right to call the shots. Where is he?? Its really quite sad. Has anyone witnessed such a complete undressing of a Presidency? He will be the first President forced to go through a re-education camp by the time they are done with him.

14. Oh my, how very..... CLINTONESQUE!!!!!!
Such a concept, to box in a brutal dictator, and tempt him with carrots whilst beating him with no-fly zone sticks!!!!

Certainly beats tossing billions down a sandbox toilet, with no positive results, eh?

:rofl:

4. Maybe these clowns will leave America and move to Iraq
and get about the business of fixing the problem. Obviously they can no longer depend on anyone else to do the job right. If you want it done right, do it yourself I always say.

5. They seem to note that these people weren't elected to make these
decisions. Pretty IRONIC I'd say. Especially that shot about O'Connor. Wasn't she number 5 in the 5-4 slection of W?

I guess even in assclownland, they finally see that Bush has no clothes. We've known it for the last 6 years.

10. Kind of sad for our nation, isn't it?
At least the countries of the world are showing respect for Americans and realizing W doesn't truly represent us or our nation.

11. they don't realize that * is a liar!

"Didn't the President say yesterday that he wasn't withdrawing any troops until the country is stable."

He also said a lot of other things, like he wouldn't fire Rumsfeld, he'd clean up New Orleans, and many, many more--all lies.

13. I am sick to fucking death of Democrats being labelled traitors.
It's their fucking mantra - repeat any ugly, vicious lie long enough and people will believe it.

I'm a Democrat in part because I have hope for, love for, and respect for my country. I do NOT HAVE TO SUPPORT THIS PRESIDENT OR THIS WAR to be a patriot. I do not have to swallow the lies and corruption hook, line and sinker. Dissent is not traitorous, dammit!

This bullshit makes me want to vomit.

16. Hell, no
Scratch the surface of their tough talk, and every Republican is a chickenshit p*ssy who soils him/herself at the thought of having to fight the wars they so love to start.

"Blackhole B-Gone" it gets the freepbrain out!

I wouldn't want to be too near any freeps in the coming months, I bet freepbrain is hard to get out of hemp sweaters and Doc Martins.
