We do indeed live in interesting times.
I believe our resolve is about to be tested like it's never been tested before and I pray we're up for it.
The Democrats and the leftist media see this election as a mandate against the president and the war. They are about to pull out all the stops in their mission to totally demoralize the American people. If they succeed to the point we pull out of Iraq before the Iraqis are strong enough to defend themselves, I'm afraid it'll be the Killing Fields all over again. Only this time much much worse and much closer to home.
Praying we have the national resolve to resist the enemy within. Praying we maintain the will to continue the fight against the global jihadists. Our very right to survive as a nation and a free people depends on it.
Our president and our troops are going to need our prayers and support now more than ever.
God willing, America will survive!
Ronald Reagan
We have a lot of work to do before 2008, but I think we are up for it.
Ditto to that!
Besides. Just think of all the shrinks who are going to be out of a job tomorrow.
Now there's a silver lining. I like it.
Don't hold your breath.
Ditto.
From this thread:
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1734494/posts
FoxNews reporting from the White House: White House spokesman Tony Snow reacted to the change in House control by allowing they're disappointed, but that it presents some intriguing opportunities, such as passing comprehensive immigration reform which failed in the previous Republican House."
I am from flyover country not liberal New England and we certainly support the President on the War in Iraq and have returned our four Republicans and one Dem who all five support the WAR in Iraq and the President on foreign policy.
I am not holding my breath but you never know when the Clinton faction takes over and gives Lieberman the cold shoulder! He just might get fed up as he is good friends with a lot of the GOP.
He wrote what he wrote.
I can read.
Where did you get this insane idea from? What, because I don't like Allen? Apparently, a lot of other people here in Virginia didn't either, but that DOESN'T mean I wanted ALL Democrats to win! (Incidentally, I didn't vote for Webb but wrote in a local candidate in my home district.) Now leave me alone.
I've finally come up with the inspiration for a tagline.
I think if the Clinton faction supports the Arabs and not Israel which I expect, then Lieberman is going to have to consider what is in the best interest of Israel and that would be joining Republicans for caucus purposes.
"Always" is a long time. America is still a young country. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Maybe. But I doubt it. He's always said he was going to caucus with the Democrats. It would take a lot to get him to leave that party.
Even if your premise was accurate, we can't simply pull out of Iraq and let it's populace face the ravages that would follow. When we did this in Vietnam over three million people in the region were slaughtered. We must not let that happen in Iraq. If we do, this will be the last time anyone partners with us.
There were a number of dynamics at work Tuesday. Some of it was related to the war. Some of it was related to the Bush' stance on stem cells. Some of it was related to same sex marriage. Some of it was just plain whackjob leftist propagandist disinformation. And then some of it was the perception by some on the right that their hopes and goals were not shared by this president.
This may be more of a referendum on Iraq than I give it credit for, but it doesn't matter. We are in Iraq and we WIll see it through. That's the way it's going to be.
Wow, that didn't take long. You know, that's almost as baq as Carter conceding before the polls closed on the west coast. "Hey, you folks didn't support me so I'm going to do what I wanted all along just to get even."
Doesn't sound very good.
Thank you.
I know you can Onyx. I just want you to acknowledge what he actually said. You take care. Have a good rest of the night.
This should be a learning experience. We should come out more tempered, stronger, more dedicated and determined.
