Washington, D.C.
After many, many months of being a punching bag, the punching bag is ready to fight back. Republicans believe it is long overdue.
On FOX NEWS SUNDAY this morning, Brit Hume reported that he was told at the highest levels that the White House was finally going to engage the Democrats. They will be coming out with a defense of the war in Iraq.
On this forum and around the blogosphere, Republican loyalists have been wondering why the President has allowed the Democrats to get away with calling him a liar. There is a wealth of evidence justifying the war, including 500 tons of yellowcake uranium discovered in Iraq in March of 2003 at the nuclear research center of Al-Tuwaitha. 1.8 tons was enriched. That is not Betty Crocker yellow cake. Hussein wanted a bomb. And yet, a majority of our population does not even know about that find.
The Democrats are doing exactly what they said they would do in their secret memo that was captured by a Republican staffer. They are using the war for political purposes, while they are pretending it is not for political purposes.
If the President will light a fire under his team, support for the war will increase, perhaps dramatically. The President owes it to the troops who have sacrificed and to those who are still out there risking their lives everyday. Step up, Mr. President.
Taking a cue from posts on FR?
CRY HAVOC AND LET SLIP THE HOUNDS OF TRUTH!
I will believe this when I see it.
I'm waiting.
The Dems are wartime traitors. Will the 'pubs speak this truth?

Because GW was trying to be Presidential.
The Dems, of course, are being Gutter.
If this story is true, I wonder if the last straw was
the Rule 21 stunt. If even the Dem Senators are
tossing away the last pretension of being senatorial,
it's time to hit 'em with the truth (and BJ Clinton
too, who is way far from Presidential, with his post-
term sabotage of US interests).
I will believe it when it happens.
The Secret Memo that was written by Rockefeller (D) WVA
said he does not know anything about a MEMO,
This should be thrown in his lying face, and make him apologize !!
Let's hope it has more force than Senator Frist's 'gonna get really, really mad' at the Dems did.
Who was it that said "A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth gets its pants on"?
.....we'll see
Doogle
Our Repubs and President are beginning to feel...'French'. . .I really hope there is substance to this 'relvelation'.
Long overdue ... Reagan was the Great Communicator. Thus far W has either been the NonCommunicator or the Poor Enunciator. Harry Truman managed to turn things around. Does W have what it takes?
Dan Rather wrote it.
Sometimes Brit's Special Report does seem to be getting its talking points from FR, but it could just be that the people putting together Brit's program and FReepers have seen the same news and thought it newsworthy.
Hey Doug,
I'm going to see my Wacko Liberal SIL today. Could you give me a reference for the Yellowcake??? I want to rub it in her smarmy face.
Thanks in advance!

This makes my entire day.
Hopefully Republicans and the WH will remember to remind the Democrats that when Clinton signed the Iraqi Liberation Act in 1998, they sounded more hawkish than some of our Republicans sound today. And the Democrats warned about the danger that Iraq's WMD posed to the United States.
And while the WH is at it, hopefully they will remind voters that, despite the leftist lie that there was no connection between Iraq/AQ, it is Clinton's Justice Department that signed a federal indictment of bin Laden which mentioned his agreement with the country of Iraq not to attack that country in exchange for weapons development. That sounds an awful lot like a relationship to me.
Oh, and maybe someone in the administration will find it interesting to remind the voters that many 9/11 families sued Iraq in federal court for Iraq's involvement in 9/11, and the judge agreed with their findings.
