That's the same song R's were singing in 54 and it took them 40 years to regain power.
You may be too young to remember the 60's and 70's, but I lived thru it (SEE MY POST # 20) and everyone should take the time to inform themselves with the results of that time period.
REMEMBER ALL, THE DHIMIS CAN--AND WILL IMHO--CUT OFF FUNDING FOR NOT ONLY THE WAR IN IRAQ, BUT THE ENTIRE WOT.
Seasoned,
Sounds like what happened in the wake of Nixon's resignation and the "reformer" democrats that came in and cut funding on Gerald Ford if my History is correct.
These darn fools set the stage for Pol Pot and his genocide. They never notice the cause and effect, and the fact that they may have caused it, (including old Uncle Walter Cronkite).
Let us hope History DOES NOT repeat itself.
No, they won't. Even the ones that would like to are politically savvy enough to know that's a dumb idea. One of the great concerns of the American people, should there be an impeachment, would be it's effect on the GWOT. The Democrats will make the case that Iraq harmed the GWOT, it was a fiasco and a distraction, and for that reason, Pres and VP Bush and Cheney have to go.
That way, it maximizes their chance of getting them impeached, and minimizes the political backlash they might see. You wait. The Democrats will sound like General Patton clones if impeachment starts up. It'll be a sham, sure. In their eyes, pulling out of Iraq would be such a big win for the 'anti-war' side that the 'tough on national security' tag they'd pick up by bolstering Afghanistan would be gravy. There's no way the'd flush such a political advantage, even if some Democrats secretly wanted to.

We can survive a dim house victory IF (and this is a big if) W looks that loss square in the face, fires all the weasels who surround him with "uniter-not-divider" advice and go out onto the media field of battle and take on the traitors in an open fight, naming names and naming crimes. If he does this he can not lose. If he doesn't do this, we all lose.
