[Timeout]

I was listening to Hannity yesterday and he's driving me crazy with his criticism of Dems' "demoralizing the troops".

While I agree they may be doing that, their strategy is to demoralize the AMERICAN PUBLIC, not the troops. THey could care less what the troops think (unless they start complaining about Bush). They want Americans to demand an end to the Iraq mission.

I'd like to see Bush tell it like it is (and have someone at the WH contact Hannity to set him straight). The only way for the enemy to prevail is for America to lose its resolve.

It may seem like a small matter, but it's too easy for Dems to answer the troops charge: "We support the troops...we want them home". It's harder to rebut the charge that they're deliberately trying to undermine public support.

Since they control the media they have managed to do both.
