Good for you Bill.

This surrender committee seems to have taken the place of our government.

Just who 'appointed' these clowns anyway?

One reporter got it exactly right in his question

Let me guess - a Fox reporter?

To bad Kofi wasn't invited to be part of the Commission to give it some real clout.

I heard Brit Hume today talking about his interview with James Baker who after the cameras were off said, "flip Syria". In other words, he held the hope that Syria could be persuaded to
aid the US in its Iraq problem. I have to believe that is unlikely to the point of being delusional.

I should have known better. I read the title as that Bill Bennet was "Smug, Arrogant, and Insufferable." I love BB.

Perhaps the most systemic problem with the report is it didn't tell us how to win...

How to win? Hmmmm...lemme see here...

Kill enough of the right people?

Everybody knows Baker sucks, that Simpson is a has-been that wishes he weren't, that O'Connor is an idiot, etc.

What I can't figure out is why Ed Meese would go along with this thing. Meese one of the most genuine, thoughtful and intelligent men I've ever met. More then that, that's ever served at a high level of Government.

He's right. The Iraq surrender group shows us how to lose.

Bush may yet see a victory, but for the country as a whole
it will be a Phryyic victory at best, we have hundreds of millions of terrorists left to destroy some already have
WMDs such as Pakistan , possibly Iran. Bush looks weak and
indecisive instead of playing to the arab street he should be saturation bombing the arab street day and night, there will be a steep
price to pay for limpwristed compassionate conservatism.

One reporter asked if the president would accept this “edict,”

All right, now I'm getting angry. If there is a degree of smugness to be highlighted here it isn't altogether on the part of this disgraceful commission, it's on the part of the smarmy, self-congratulatory press who feel that somehow the election and this idiot report validate their sordid sellout of everything they said they were standing for in preference to everything they actually do.

This is no edict. It isn't anything at all other than the opinion of bloated egos, skewed priorities, and fat, self-righteous, disgusting nomenklatura who hide behind the efforts and lives of men and women far better than themselves.

In all my time in Washington I've never seen such smugness, arrogance, or such insufferable moral superiority. Self-congratulatory. Full of itself. Horrible.

Just like the 9/11 Commission. Our politicians and the media, whoring off each other, one big cocktail party. It's all about them, not the problem at hand.

If the next WMD fries a good portion of them, maybe they'll get it. But, I suppose our enemies know enough to leave them alone. That old saying, something like "If your adversary is in the process of destroying himself, stay out of the way", comes to mind.

"Committeeism simply got out of control here."

The old... "A camel is a horse made by committee" sure fits this smashing bunch of chumps to a tea!!!

NBC news was orgasmic tonight, with the idea that Bush was now finally painted so far into a corner that he has no way out whatsoever!!! The heavy breathing was fogging up the camera lense of all 7 of the prigs!!!

America must be taught the hard lesson that there is never any justification for even short interruptions in social programs for diversions of tax dollars to military operations... NEVER!!!

We have our own "victims" on our own plantations that we dare not disturb. Katrina should have proved that to all you miserable warmongering conservatives who make these stupid attempts to save other country's people from tyranny. (/sourchasm)
