He knows the danger of being wrong on this. So you can be sure he KNOWS a whole lot more than media is reporting.

anybody who is killed by anyone, anywhere at anytime in connection to the middle east will be used by the MSM to refute his statement.

Interesting.

Of course, it's once again squarely in the best interests of the political enemies of the Administration to trumpet each and every act of violence ...

What would you expect him to say - that the insurgency is getting stronger?

The media is openly cheering for the "insurgent" terrorists. Same as it ever was. CNN (and others) were silent about abuses under Saddam so that they could keep their Baghdad bureaus. The antiAmerican media makes me ill.

D.C. is beyond hope.

That would rate up there as one of the funniest posts of the day if it wasn't such an honest-to-God sad fact.

I hope so. We don't need another TET that the repeat drive by media would use to sap the average American will.

Good point. A crazed cab driver in Beirut beats up his barber (who once lived in the US) for a bad haircut and that will be proof that Americans abroad are still at risk.

It seems you do not have confidence that our troops are winning the war against the terrorist insurgency. Shame on you.
