Biden now on MTP saying "we(the administration) are incompetent running the war and if they(Iraq) doesn't have a constitution in place by Summer, it's game over. Now how you pull them out that's a whole different thing." Thank God Allen gave at least a reasonable response but he needs to learn the word passion if he wants to be President, he doesn't have it yet. Biden constantly referring to what he said on other MTP shows as if he really is someone instead of just another disgusting rat traitor trying for political gain, to cover up his zillion misdeeds! I wish just for once our spokespeople would get loud and sincere about the positivie things we are doing in Iraq! My gosh our guys are giving up their lives for the progress we have made over there and it is substantial but you would not know it listening to the msm! We need to set the record straight! And once again this BS about having an instant war where everything goes our way instantly instead of over a period of years is all politcal BS created by the rat/libs for political gain, once more. They(rat demagogues) are all full of it and freely continue to use their media surrogates with impunity.

rodguy911, your anger at the war coverage is reasonable and understandable. Brit had Col. Peter on his show saying all the good things our soldiers were doing. He just returned from Iraq.

Max Boot reports from Iraq - What MSM fails to report.

Pretty much everyone currently in Iraq enlisted or reenlisted knowing that he or she would be sent to war. (The use of "she" isn't just political correctness--there are lots of women here, and they are not just performing traditional support functions, such as nurses or clerks. I saw female soldiers skillfully handling .50 caliber machine guns on patrol.) Not only do service personnel cheerfully face danger beyond the imagination of your average cubicle dweller, but they also work harder than an investment banker--and for a fraction of the salary.

"I've never worked as little as a 12-hour day yet," one sergeant told me. Eighteen-hour days seem to be the norm, and days off are unheard of. (Soldiers do get a couple of weeks of R&R in the rear or back home in the middle of a one-year deployment.) In many units, one soldier will be sent to fetch lunch from the DFAC (dining facility) so that everyone else can continue working. Others skip lunch altogether or gobble a PowerBar on the run.

One colonel, a brigade commander, told me that the only break he gets comes when he gets his hair cut. I believe him--after all, we were conducting our interview at 10 p.m., and he was still in the office. "If you work 18 hours a day, seven days a week, and you don't drink alcohol, it's amazing how much you can get done," a senior general joked.

Why even Fox is relying on these liers in the media - I don't understand.

Biden needs to read: "The Myth of Inevitable US Defeat in Vietnam".

The MSM was wrong then, and it is wrong now, too. They have been--and still are--our enemies' best friends.
