It's time, in the wake of last night,s historic congressional vote and the long overdue efforts by the GOP to speak plainly, to punctuate the historic nature of the victory our forces are winning in Iraq.

I watched most of that episode on C-span last night including both votes.

I think that there ought to be a few persons who are totally embarrassed by the democrats that they vote for to represent them in Congress. I know that I am embarrassed by that lying hypocritical imbecile Kerry from my state even though I have never voted for him.

By the way, hardly a mention in two of the local papers here concerning the vote last night. Typical.

Excellent job Jeff.

What our Commander in Chief has led us to in Iraq

I've asked before, when has it ever been done better?

[Thombo2]

Well written article."Mr Kerry,your lame attempts to paint this historical mission and tremendous victory in negative terms....do not carry any weight..."I agree,but consider the audience,"Good Morning America".This is the same crowd that still watches(and believes)what they hear on the network news channels.They'll buy his arguement hook,line,and sinker,and never bother to think twice about it.

Kerry is pitiful; he is an appeaser of terrorism; the lengths he went to to immulate President Kennedy’s medals in so short a time was pure theater.

Calling Iraq a failure is nothing short of sophistry...Kerry's war was a fable, told so many times with embroidering; even he can't get the events straight. In any case, The Toy Boy is no longer relevant.

We're on the verge of another 1972. Then, not withstanding unremitting derision by the MSM and the left (pardon the redundancy), Nixon's program to "Vietnamize" the war had succeeded. With only minimal American support (most of our troops already having come home) the South Vietnamese had thrown back a determined, full scale invasion, inflicting staggering losses of men and material on the North Vietnamese forces in the process. In the aftermath the North Vietnamese finally decided to negotiate a peace agreement.

All that was required for America then was to "stay the course": to stand by our allies and to enforce the peace. Although I wouldn't venture to assign a particular probability, the very possible result today would have been a free and prosperous South Vietnam on the model of South Korea or Taiwan.

But instead 1972 was followed by 1975. In the intervening period, thousands of Americans, INCLUDING ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES AND SENATORS, strove relentlessly to slash or eliminate American aid to Indochina, demonize our allies there, legitimize our enemies, and prevent enforcement (or even adequate monitoring) of the peace accords.

Right now the left is compelling us to re-fight the political battles of '69-'71. While we fight those with all we've got, we must also anticipate and prepare for the battles of '72-'75. Never forget that when the left claims they "only" want to bring the troops home, THIS IS A LIE. The troops will come home, but the left will still seek the defeat of America through the defeat of her allies: that is the destruction of democracy in Iraq.

The left was able to succeed in facilitating the destruction of South Vietnam primarily because they were able to secure control of Congress. This must be prevented from reoccurring. For the foreseeable future, even after the troops have come home, we must continue to treat EVERY national election -- congressional as well as presidential -- as a wartime contest as crucial as the presidential election of 2004.

Hear, hear! Remarkable things are happening but you wouldn't know it, listening to clowns like Kerry. What a maroon!

[Thombo2]

[Thombo2]

The greatest failing that I see in George W. Bush is that he is far from being a "Great Communicator".

Bush should have been saying what you just wrote, on a daily basis, until the American public could recite it from memory.

[patriciaruth]

I couldn't believe this came from ABCNews.com

Too bad.

It is just the John Kerry PR piece that is there.

I hate the MSM.

[paul51]

We've had the debates. We've had elections. Now it is time for all Americans to unite and support the troops and our war effort. If they can't do that, they should keep there comments to themselves and stay the hell out of the way. If they decide instead to provide aid and comfort to our enemies and those that would kill our troops and us, they should be called out, labeled for what they are and ostracized.

Jeff,

Bravo!

Well chosen, truthful words defeat lies every day of the week, and twice on Sunday.

Deposed one of the most ruthless tyrants of the last fifty years

Jeff thank. I cannot articulate just how much I loath this metrosexual POS. He sold America out to the commies in Vietnam. How he and his Democrap pals want to do the same in Iraq. This time, the same result would spell doom for this country. But he cannot see past his French nose to realize the consequences of his traitorous nonsense.
