"I'd have to agree. Why do they want us to LOSE this war?"

I find it hard to believe that anyone could be so anti-American, but w the socialistic influence that seems to have infiltrated the Dem party over the years and the absolute hatred of Bush by many of them, it would appear that they will do and say anything to get power back. National Security and the War are the big issues on which most Americans were/are supporting the President and which many think helped win the last election. While it's quite unfortunate, it seems that the Dims would rather lose the war so they can take that issue away from the Pres and Pubbies. Many are also still stuck in the 60's and Viet Nam and need to fast forward 40 years to this century to see how a war can be waged. They also did not learn the lessons of VN (if Congress and the American people don't support the war, the troops lose morale and the enemy feels empowered. As has been said,wars aren't lost on the battlefield, they're lost at home (especially when you have the Dims and the MSM spinning the news and only sharing the bad news and not all of the accomplishments).

What they don't seem to understand is that while the war and Nat'l Security are big issues, many Americans are not going to get excited and vote for a party that only spews hatred, has no ideas (only phantom plans that never seem to be discussed), and sometimes borders on sedition. The Pubbies don't have all the answers and, IMHO could do much better on many issues, but, at least they have some solutions and are optimistic about the future of our country - not negative, nay-saying ninnies.

Good post. Sadly, though, about 42% of Americans support the democrats regardless of the issues they really stand for. Do you think this percentage is likey to change, and if so, in what direction?

Keeping in mind that it was Americans who gave the Soviets information on our plans for an atomic bomb.

Keeping in mind that Madame Cleaning Lady stated that she didn't want America to be the 'only' superpower.

Slick Willie is of the same mind.
