Boxer wants end to 'endless war' 'We are in a mess because they have no plan,'...
San Francisco Chronicle ^ | Wednesday, November 30, 2005 | By Carla Marinucci

Posted on 11/30/2005 6:50:42 AM PST by johnny7

Sen. Barbara Boxer, a persistent critic of President Bush, lambasted the administration Tuesday for being in such disarray on Iraq that she argued the war effort is fast disintegrating into "a disaster'' for Americans at home and the troops abroad.

"Every day, there's another message. ... They don't seem to know what they're doing,'' she said during a news conference in San Francisco. "We are in a mess because they have no plan, and now it seems they don't even talk to each other. ... What's happening there is not working; it's a disaster.''

The libs are based and invested IN FAILURE of our military and anything that the Bush administration does. It is their entire dysfunctional, troublemaking, negative strategy. Here, another of their finest MORONS opens her mouth as usual.

All Bush has to say is "I have a plan"......

Why not? It was good enough for the democrats when John Kerry kept repeating it during the 2004 campaign.

Everything coming from the dems at this point sounds desparate and defeatist. The President is back to talking about Iraq and is no longer ceeding the field to the dems.

Even assuming Iraq was a lost cause, which is quite the opposite case, as long as the President is talking about Iraq and National Security he is on strong footing. The dems are simply too extreme (defeatist and even seen as rooting for that defeat) to present a viable alternative to the American people. As has been said by wiser persons then myself, the dems put themselves out on the national security limb and are now having it sawed off.

"Boxer's plan"

Does anyone with an iota of intelligence believe that this stoogette for the extreme left has any knowledge at all about military matters? Boxer is one those lefties who would have howled at the idea of turning Japan and Germany into democratic countries after WWII. Hey Dems, run Babs for prez and see how many votes she gets.

Nah, it's just more of the RATS' empty-headed rhetoric. Their plan is so transparent, it's laughable. When the inevitable draw down in troop strength occurs (hopefully, for them, before the '08 elections) they can loudly trumpet how their "pressure" on GWB "forced" a return from an obviously "disastrous" foreign excursion, thus allowing them to claim that they were right all along.

The fact that Iraq will then be relatively stable and free will be conveniently ignored.

Morons!

We've liberated a country from a mass murdering dictator obstructing many UN resolution to disarm.

Interim Iraqi government installed.

New constitution approved.

First free and open democratic election in a few weeks.

The plan seems to be working pretty well.

An endless war without a plan? Certainly she must be talking about Clinton's quagmire in Kosovo and Bosnia, right?

Yes, but we will know better. This is typical fare for the libs. They are ALWAYS the problem, and never part of the solution to anything. But of course, they and their media cohorts, will spin it the way you mention to try and falsely look like they had something to do with the outcome...what a bunch of wretched losers they are.

Just like little kids whining on a car day trip.

The only difference being that you have to expect this behavior from kids so you shouldn't smack them when they do this.

Democrats, on the other hand, should be promptly b****-slapped.
