For those pessimistic poltroons here, please, just BE QUIET. You advance nothing with your whining and dark predictions.

HEAR HEAR!

"Bush Says Victory in Iraq is Important...Perhaps if he actually defined the specific conditions of "victory" it would make more sense to the majority of Americans."

I agree. Bush doesn't articulate well. He lets the media talking heads make points and walk all over him and seems to take for granted that everyone knows his position and that they support it. Maybe they would if he'd take the trouble to support it himself.

I'm heartened to hear him say that victory is important, but I remain skeptical that he'll articulate why or how. Or that he'll make it happen, from his weakened position. I confess to some disillusionment with this guy. I hope events prove me wrong.

What this shows is that two women have more courage, perseverence, confidence, and patriotism than you, Mr. Whiner. You go bake cookies. Mine are done and frozen waiting for Christmas Eve.

These media clowns need to be dropped through a trap door the second they ask a dumb question.

Sorry...I was quoting a reporter from the press conference.

Seems you are aware of those issues and I have heard those things. Apparently he's spoken on all those particular things and if he hasn't recently his administration has detailed all of that information.

Why should he spend every media opportunity constantly going over the same material?

We will not back down. Strategy change guaranteed but we will not and can not leave before the Iraqi's can hold their own. It's time that we assure them of that so that those in leadership will not seek aid from those we fight.

Bush has never been able to articulate how Iraq fits into the GWOT, and most Americans now believe it doesn't. He stuck his toe in the water when he spoke about "islamo-facism" as the ideology behind the terrorists and began to link that to Saddam, Syria and Iran, but immediately pulled it out the moment he was criticized. I love the guy and admire Bush and Blair's determination, but it's hurt not to have an articulate leader, like Reagan was during the Cold War.

:-) Surrender is NOT part of the picture either. :-)

For the jihadanazi's and their supporting left in this country, WE Will Not Surrender to you!!!! We have not yet begun to fight!!!!

It's also nice for the left exposing themselves for ALL to see. They have sewn the wind. They shall reap the whirlwind.

Best FReegards, jveritas,

It goes back to Kerry's 1971 testimony before Congress, "How do you ask someone to be the last man to die for a mistake?" If victory is not the goal, the logical question is why wait until 2008 to pull out all of our combat troops. Once you set a timetable not linked to the results, it is hard to justify losing more American lives.

>>>> .... now it's about a withdrawl. The ISG guarantees it.

I hope you're wrong. The battle for Iraq has divided America like nothing has since the Vietnam War, and that hasn't helped matters. But Iraq is only one part of the WOT. Should we leave Iraq, the Islamofascists aren't just going to stop fighting. Any sign of weakness from the US will be viewed by the terrorists as a victory of sorts. OTOH, Bush has to come up with a "new way" in Iraq. Both Bush and Blair said as much in their press conference today. Staying the course is no longer an option. We'll see if Bush and Blair offer anything new over the next 1-1/2 months, leading up to the Presidents 2007 SOTUS. Bush`s pre-holiday speech to the American people may hold some answers. We shall see.

....and just exactly where do you get your "reality", bub?

NYSlime? WaPo?

They nor you speak for me or for my children.

If you don't have anything to add to the discussion but cowards and traitors' talking points, get your loud a$$ out of the road so the rest of us can do the job.

Bravery in the past doesn't indicate anything about your present behavior. Examples: Jim Webb, George McGovern.

Quit trying to hijack the thread.
