Sick how the Dems are aching for a civil war in Iraq. Ghouls.
Woo hoo--Rhode Island Senator Reed, a former Army Ranger and a current Democrat, says ...yada...yada...yada. Big deal. No big insights. Why are his comments news?
That has been going on for two years.

This is a war on terrorism not a civil war. But tell us again, which side is the terrorist?
No he is not late, the media whores need filler so they won't have to talk about Bill Clinton's UAE business deals.
You wish, Harry. Harry Reid is a lying little prick.
My bad. Wrong Reid.
That would be his wet dream.
Hopefully they are moving to avoid a civil war.
