Defeat at home can scarcely lead to victory in Iraq.

Crushing defeat? Funny but I don't remember that being the perspective when the elections leaned the Republican way.

And meanwhile, the North American Union, and other covert anti-soverignty activities move forward without voter knowledge, awareness or approval. All very sanitary and clean....

I keep asking myself what is the "consensus" position between stay and win and cut and run. Declare victory and run?

"In Gates, Bush chose a former CIA director and pragmatist expected to be more inclined to consensus-building than the combative Rumsfeld"

I'll sure miss the "combative Rumsfeld". He had a backbone and didn't put up with nonsense from the MSM. We need more like him.

You got that right, the cut and run is already being a contingency.

You may now refer to Iraq as a political war.

So Bush is replacing Rummy with a guy who ran death squads and torture teams in Central America, and who gave chemical weapons to Saddam, and Stinger missiles to Osama bin Laden, and who twisted Intelligence estimates for Reagan, and who coordinated Iran Contra? Who's the genius who came up with this?

Agent of change....hmmmmm, where have I heard that phrase before? Oh, I remember, that's what the dims always say. Trouble is they never tell us if it is a change for the better or a change for the worse.

Wonder why we suspect a change for the worse, when change is not followed with, "for the better"?

I don't have a problem with Rummy leaving, but this leaves a bad taste in my mouth because it appears that he's been dumped to placate the dems.

PRESIDENT BUSH: "I AM OPEN TO NEW IDEAS ON IRAQ, AS LONG AS THE OUTCOME IS VICTORY".

Anyone that believes otherwise is believing a lying media... again and again and again and again and again!

They are all agents of change. If the country didn't want change they would not hire these agents. All the way from elected officials to appointed officials to hired staff to self-elected non-profit corps and NGOs, they are all agents of change. If we didn't have official agents of change, Nature would do it the natural way, and mostly does anyway unless foreign powers get there first.

Dr. Jack Wheeler, author of the Reagan Doctrine, is hoping and praying conservatives will not support this nominee.

IT’S SINATRA TIME
Written by Dr. Jack Wheeler
Wednesday, 08 November 2006

Yes, it's Sinatra Time - meaning, recall FS's lyrics in That's Life, take a while to feel like garbage over Americans electing people who hate their country to run Capitol Hill, then pick yourself up and get back in the race.

Yes, this is not going to be easy. I lived through the old joke this morning - waking up at dawn to survey the wreckage of yesterday, telling myself to cheer up as things could be worse. So I cheered up and sure enough, things got disastrously worse when Bush threw Rummy to the wolves of the left - and announced the worst possible replacement.

Bobby Gates' nickname at the CIA was The Little Prick. He is a pompous, incompetent, squishy witless fool. He is the total tool of the Jimmy Baker-Brent Scowcroft crowd that so horribly ran foreign affairs for GW's daddy. To put such a man in charge of the Pentagon - the one bastion of pro-Americanism remaining in our foreign policy establishment - is an unmitigated catastrophe.

Conservatives can get back in the race by blocking this awful nomination. They did it with Harriet Miers, it can be done with Little Bobby.
