Democrats, who came to power in midterm elections two months ago in large part because of growing public opposition to the war,............................

Such untruth. The Democrats won because conservative Republicans protested the treachery of the RINO members of the gang of 14 in halting the conservative legislative agenda. 14 Senators wanted to preserve their own individual futures as senators , without thinkinig much about the nation or their party. 7 Republicans sold out.

That does not signal growing opposition to the war. It signals that conservative Republicans do not believe that a minority of 7 Senators should be able to stop a movement, and have it redefined by political silence.

There were 7 RINOs in the gang of 14, two lost their seats in 2006. We still have 5 to get rid of.

There is opposition to the war in the drive by media, and in the minds of treasonous Dem whacko ideologues like Botox Nancy, not in the minds of most Americans.

If Republicans want to win in 2008, all they have to do is get behind their president and lead. But they are too traduced as nouveau moderates, to lead. If that keeps up, the American public will teach the Republican party what it means to fail to support their sitting President of the United States. Republicans will be sent packing.

I think an awful lot of this is staging for the next time," the 2008 presidential and congressional elections...

That's my take on it too. The Dems will make a bunch of noise for a while, then slither back to their task of robbing the public.

"Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi"

What a disgrace.. the epitome of a weak America. God Help us because whoever helped put these asshats in charge never gave a thought to America's survival.

re: growing public opposition to the war

Wrong! The public is not opposed to the war, it's opposed to half-assed measures used in fighting the war! As Larry the Cable Guy says "Git 'er done!" What's the use of having the greatest military in the history of the world if all you're gonna do is tie their hands when they go to war. This is war, treat it like war.

God forbid we get rid of one of them by electing him President of the United States. I have nothing but respect for his service to our country but it's time for him to retire from public service.

But, said Reid, "We as senators have had no ability to have any input in the president's position on this."



Thank God in heaven for that. First true quote I've read come out of this crooked libs chops.

Reid is amazingly correct here:

1. Dems have no ability.

2. Dems have NO input

Oh I agree, there are a lot of people opposed to the war, but they have been since day one. The article said there was growing discontent with the war and my point is that the discontent is more with the way it's being waged than the fact it's being waged at all. WMD's were but one of several points made before the war.

This isn't about the WOT, its about defeating bush regardless of what at stake to the country or lives it may cost. These demons will not do anything that mat lead to eventual success under Bush. They know it and the American people need to know it. After GW's speech came a response from the rats. Well, where was the response of the new minority party? If the spineless pubs won't stand up to these treacherous rats this country is going to be hit again and they'll all be to blame.

I don't think the President instituted a new plan. The 'plan' has been changing to suit conditions all along. I think his speech was just a way to stall the Dems while the job gets done. President Bush knows there is no point in debating loons.
