As long as liberal twits like Nancy Pelosi continue to attack the policy of the Bush administration, the further the war effort will be undermined, the longer the conflict in Iraq will last and the more US troops will be killed. The terrorists are feeding off the division that exists between the pro-Bush and anti-Bush forces. It's time Democrats placed patriotism ahead of politics. Lead, follow or get the hell out of the way. Yes, but remember when Pelosi was selected as a party leader the pundits said this would ensure an anti-war left wing democratic party. This is a Kerry nightmare, and will (a) help strengthen Nader, and (b) drive many voters to Bush. So I say, come on Nancy, tell us what you really feel.
I see where you're coming from, but I think you missed my point. This has moved beyond mere politics some time ago. The problem is, the Librats are seeding greater animosity towards the war effort. This has led to more US troops being killed in action. The terrorists know they've been able to create a division within the ranks of America's ruling class of elected officials and they're playing on that division growing wider as the general election approches.
In some critical aspects, the terrorists have been successful in widening the gap between those patriots who realize a stay the course policy is best right now, versus those politico's who are using events to feed the anti-Bush propaganda effort.
