The scary prospect of American success

There was not much shock, and in the early hours of the Iraqi war very little awe. But if you were Saddam Hussein, and if you still hadn't been blown to the spirit world to collect your 73 hookers, there was calamity and dread enough.

Translation: "We've got to be prepared for the worst. It looks like it might be a slam dunk for George W. Bush."

I thought this was a classic... The lefties are cr*pping their pants, worried about another successful Republican president doing what's RIGHT for the country and the world.

God Bless our President!

I wonder if Kim Jong Ill is crapping his pants too.

LMAO!!!

A Pruden ping. This is great stuff!

Good point.... "Maybe pissing off the USA isn't such a good idea..." - KJI

Wow what a piece of writing!

"Demonstrating is all these people have to do."

While surfing last night, I came across an interview on MTV of some teenagers laying down in the street. The "reporter" asked a young girl why she was there. She said" to show the world her solidarity with the Iraqi people."

What struck me, is that she was wearing a Landsend winter coat, had a Dooney and Bourke handbag and when she smiled, there had to be at least $ 5,000 of braces on her teeth.

I wonder how much solidarity the Iraqi people would show her. Another poster child for human shields.

I was thinking the same thing... wouldn't it be wonderful if we could reserve "shock and awe", put it on those carrier groups, and float it over to the South China Sea?

Another wonderful thought: wouldn't it be great if, in response to all the Demo calls for "what's this war going to cost?" Bush's team finally says: "Look, we didn't want to try to estimate this, because the costs could vary so much. This "Cut Off The Head" strategy will be extremely efficient -- and we just didn't want to telegraph that this was a possible strategy. We feared releasing it to the Dems might compromise our strategy."

Bingo. The fear that Republicans can do what the Libs can not do clealy makes them look like the incompetent, chicken-hearted weasels that they are. No one likes to be reminded that they are a failure.

Message to liberals: YOU HAVE FAILED. On every front. Everytime. I finally and fully understand your grief.

Tom Daschle, Robert Byrd and Nancy Pelosi are left to wallow in the squalor of their own angry juices, like a crying child lying wet and cold in a darkened crib.

Make that the entire Social Democrat party, then add in a few hundred thousand communist-inspired anti-war protesters around the world.

If the peace in Iraq comes as fast as it appears it could, the entire left-wing will be put in their place, and Hollywood can kiss my ass forever!

Ping!

What a great article. They just won't learn. Time and time again, GWB keeps giving it to the left, right up the ole grocery hole.

[chiller]

This "Cut Off The Head" strategy will be extremely efficient -- and we just didn't want to telegraph that this was a possible strategy.

Yes it is a wonderful thought. I want to humiliate the libs as much as I want to eliminate Saddam before the weekend is over. What a slam-dunk that would be!

[aShepard]

Great article.

Too bad that Rats don't read the Washington Times. The Times is preaching to the choir!

[ReleaseTheHounds]

Yeah, Pruden really is great... doesn't get the recognition he deserves. This piece is one of his very best.

Hopefully, some self-absorbed celebrities will get up on Oscar night and implode their careers with cliched speeches and socialist statements.
