You're On!!!!

[Right_in_Virginia]

I would pay good money to be able to pistol whip Chuck Hagel.

Get in line!

[mass55th]

How about this?

Senators fear Iraq war may spill to Iran, Syria and the U.S. will win

[macamadamia]

the present authorization granted the president to use force in Iraq does not cover that and he does need congressional authority to do that," said Biden.


Gosh, we better stop the use of force in Somalia, or who knows where else, because Biden the Bald hasn't given the president permission yet.

[acapesket]

I wish we all owned death rays, it would be ever so much more fun!

[Cicero]

Senators fear; I hope.

Once again, note that this article was written by Arshad Mohammed and David Morgan.

Seemingly, every damned news organization in the world now has a reporter named Mohammed reporting on the War on Terror. Apparently they are no longer even attempting to hide that they are working for the other side.

What is this, Islamicist Affirmative Action?

[plain talk]

Iraq war spill to Syria and Iran? Now that's a joke. There is no war first of all. It's a peacekeeping operation with lots of terrorists coming over from Iran and Syria into Iraq committing vionent acts. The dems have it backwards.

[seekthetruth]

"I hope it "spills over" and we handle the spill entirely from the air."

I hope it really spills over and we continue to catch more Iranians doing their bad stuff in Iraq, as just happened.
Already looks like a good "spill over" will happen, and it is about time! Can't wait for the all out bombing of Iran! We will then see the problems in Iraq drop very quickly, I believe.

[Nervous Tick]

>> I think Bush;s plan is to draw them out in the open.We are going to have smack them down sooner or later.

Good point.

And when we're done with Hagel and Biden, we can start in smacking down Syria and Iran!

[prairiebreeze]

If this bunch of limp-wristed republicans and communist RATS are "afraid" of this happening.....you can be damn sure that's exactly what NEEDS to occur.

[roses of sharon]

Gee, it could interfere with the Senators evening cocktails, and Sat golf.

[sageb1]

Sounds like they are anticipating and wanting to get some Bush bashing in before it happens.

[fat city]

"They sweated us invading Cambodia in 1970. Even limited, it was long overdue. "

And that was the smartest thing Nixon ever did. Maybe the only smart thing.

[norton]

"...senators voiced strong concern on Thursday that the Iraq war could spread to neighboring Iran and Syria if the U.S. military were to chase militants across the border."

OK

Now we really are getting into Korea and Vietnam all over again...
The 'civil war' is being staged across sacrosanct borders.
Our troops are fighting it under ROE that deny them persuit.

These genuises are afraid it'll spill back over?

THE IRAQ SENILE, STUPIDITY, AND SURRENDER GROUP

by Dr. Jack Wheeler
[Author of the Reagan Doctrine]
Thursday, 07 December 2006

One hundred and forty years ago, British philosopher John Stuart Mill (1806-1873) wrote:

War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things: the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth a war, is much worse... A man who has nothing which he is willing to fight for, nothing which he cares more about than he does about his personal safety, is a miserable creature who has no chance of being free, unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself. (Dissertations and Discussions 1867 Vol.1 p. 26.)

A perfect description of the Democrat Party leadership and the editors of the New York Times today. Which is why they are hyping the Iraq Study Group Report to the moon.

They hope to use the hype to force President Bush to surrender in Iraq. They will not succeed.

Yesterday (12/06), I and a small group of conservatives met with a top White House aide (whose comments were not for attribution so I can't name him). In so many words, he told us that President Bush's response to the Iraq Study Group Report and the media hysteria around it is: "Thank you for sharing."

"Several Republicans"

First off, I don't trust Reuters definition of several Republicans. I'd like a complete list of names.

That being said, reading these quotes from Hagel somewhat alleviates my continuing anger at the no shows last Nov.

[BusterBear]

That headline says it all. These Senators talk big when they think no action will be taken (like with Clinton). When they gave Bush the authority to go to war, they really thought (like Kerry) that Bush wouldn't go through with it. Then they learned otherwise. Now they're scared sh**less.

[parisa]

I can understand your sentiments. He's not even a rhino. He is a Demo mole. When is his term up?

[sgtbono2002]

You really dont have to send troops across the border. you just kill those who come across to your side.

You also kill anything that looks like it might transport armaments/

Hello Senators,
Have you been on vacation to Mars? Who do you think is fighters and funding for the insurrgency in Iraq? It's Iran and Syria. The fight is already being fought and it is high time we recognized it and moved forward to win it.
