In the latest Fox News poll, just out today, the pollsters asked the following question:
Do you personally want the Iraq plan President Bush announced last week to succeed?
Here are the results:
Overall: 63% Yes 22% No 15% Don’t Know
Democrats: 51% Yes 34% No 15% Don’t Know
Republicans: 79% Yes 11% No 10% Don’t Know
Independents 63% Yes 19% No 17% Don’t Know
Friends, I’ll allow you a minute to wrap your minds around this, for we are truly through the looking class. Even though we have some 150,000 troops in harm’s way and we universally profess to “support the troops,” over 1/3 of our society either wants them to fail or doesn’t know if they want them to succeed. Even more chilling are the results regarding our currently dominant political party. 49% of Democrats either want us to lose in Iraq or “don’t know” if they want us to succeed.
I would love to hear why losing in Iraq would be in the national interest. And I would love to hear the humanitarian justification for leaving Baghdad’s civilians to the tender mercies of the murderous militias and terrorists that stalk that city.
And I would also love to hear Democratic leaders respond to these poll numbers. But I won’t hold my breath.

Total number of boobs in the Republican ranks and Independent ranks dont even beat the total number of Demonrat boobs.
How about hearing from the Republicans?
The Democrats have been on the WRONG side of every national defense issue since the Civil War. Its a fact. Look it up!
Actually, I thought 34% of Democrats wanting to see failure was probably a little low. Case of people giving the pollsters the answer they think the pollsters want?
PING
Democrats are mostly self-centered scum. This poll just shows the obvious.
Wish I could say I'm shocked...or even surprised.
Republicans are giving Dems a pass, and should not be.
Every Republican needs to pound on this subject, every time they're in front of any TV camera or reporter.
Democrats want America to LOSE.
Say so. Don't be shy about it. Don't give them a pass.
It needs to be said. And said again. Democrats want America to lose.
This was the same thoughts and feelings in the NAM era........nothing new under the sun.......
You are exactly right...the Republican numbers were almost as bad.
You may be right...but, I also added the "I don't know" votes to NOT wanting them to succeed...because it SHOULD be a no-brainer to want it to succeed..
The opposite of which being...we LOSE THE WAR!!
Our enemy within. Nothing new --- they love to lose wars.
Anyone wanting the US to lose is a traitor. This means they would rather see radical Islam win this war on terror. They are contemptible scum.
They hate Bush so bad that they'll take an international failure (a peice of American realestate) and roll in the short-term gain of the profit of power.
Gotta love socialist politicians, they'll do anything for power or sex.

Actually, I am glad to see that 63% want it to succeed....that is not the impression the DBM and the rats have implied all last week....
Heartbreaking, isn't it.
I heard that disgusting Maxine Waters on CNN this morning with Wolfie...and she is the head of the "Get out of Iraq NOW" caucus.
They are calling for all funing of the war to stop...and our troops home in 6 months.
She also said they have a HUGH rally planned for the first weekend in February (I beleive)...marching to protest the war and to get the POTUS to bring the troops home now.
When she was asked by Wolf (shock) about what Nancy Pelosi said the other day about how Pres. Bush knows that Congress would NEVER pull funding for our troops...Maxine said that Nancy needs to realize there are a lot of groups in the House and they have their OWN points of view!!!
ouch...lol
Anyone wanting the US to lose is a traitor. This means they would rather see radical Islam win this war on terror. They are contemptible scum.
They'll change their minds once they start having to buy their burkas and korans off Amazon.....and then the military will be in their good graces again......I'm probably dreaming!
