Fox is announcing that Rep. John Murtha (D-PA) and a number of other Dems this afternoon have demanded that Bush pull all US troops out of Iraq immediately.
It is early AM in Korea where Bush is and no official reply has been made.
Fox notes that "this escalates rhetoric on Iraq."
Breaking...
Is it time to march on Washington yet?
I don't care who he is or what he's done. No one gets a pass for stabbing our troops in the back.
Maybe, but they really will do anything (and I mean ANYTHING including sacrifice our military and surrender the country) to get their power back.
It should be no surprise the Democrats took this opening and are now pulling hard at the seams in their attempt to tear this country away from doing what is right.
Senator Frist, where is your apology?
Do I need to start taking French lessons?
How is this different than what he did a year and a half ago?
Murtha: Iraq ‘Unwinnable’
By Erin P. Billings and Emily Pierce

Signaling a new, more aggressive line against the Bush administration’s policy on Iraq, Rep. John Murtha (Pa.), the House Democrats’ most visible defense hawk, will join Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) today to make public his previously private statements that the conflict is “unwinnable.”

He USED TO BE a serious guy, but little by little the loss of his chairmanship has eaten away at his brain and he is now willing to do anything including undercut the military and surrender the country to get back his power. He's an example of what happens to you if you spend all your time with evil people - you become evil yourself.
Why isn't he calling for all of our troops to get out of Europe. WWII ended over 60 years ago.
"We can't risk success in Iraq. We must pull out now!"
it's clear that after the elections in a few weeks then the troops could begin a massive departure so the DemoncRATs, anticipating that, are engaging in a misdirection play thus assuring that (a) if troops are returned then the Dems can lay claim to their pressure & (b) assure that troops won't be returned since they know Bush + Rummy & Co. won't give in to their pressure and make it appear to the terrorists that they've won, thus assuring more troops in the field & increasing the likelihood of further deaths, thus assuring the DemoncRATs of a further platform of brave GI's on which to build the 2006 DemoncRAT political agenda.
OK, these traitors need to get Hindu beauty marks and Colombian neckties ASAP...
Good analysis.
Withdrawal now is about the only way to stave off the repercussions of a resounding public relations debacle for the Democratic party.
Bush's "we'll stand down as Iraqis stand up" strategy is a winner folks. The jihad will soon be reduced to killing Arabs and Muslims in Iraq in order to remain viable there, and THAT'S a loser of a strategy, because the "Arab street" is already turning on this tactic.
The troops WILL be coming home soon, our presence there will no longer imvolve ground troops, just enough to aid the Iraqis in aerial recon and air support as they chase the last jihadi from their country.
The MSM will lose their only anvil to beat Bush over the head with, as will the Democratic party. This war is WON, and the Dems see the writing on the wall, they just picked the wrong side to root for.
I demand that for the sake of our country the president tell them to screw off.
Quick! Quick! Get out of Iraq before Bush has a victory with which he can bury us!
The elections are only a month away and terrorism will be dealt a mighty blow if they are succesdful!
Sabotage Iraq now or The Dems are doomed to irrelvancy for the rest of history!
Sadly, that pretty much sums it up.
