"War in Iraq lost": US Democrat leader (Reid)
AFP ^ | April 19, 2007

Posted on 04/19/2007 11:08:17 AM PDT by West Coast Conservative

The war in Iraq "is lost" and a US troop surge is failing to bring peace to the country, the leader of the Democratic majority in the US Congress, Harry Reid, said Thursday.

"I believe ... that this war is lost, and this surge is not accomplishing anything, as is shown by the extreme violence in Iraq this week," Reid said, on the same day US President George W. Bush was giving a speech at an Ohio town hall meeting defending the war on terror.

YOUR ACTION REQUESTED BY SOME TROOPS IN IRAQ: Please spread the word about an appeal for redress that people in the military can sign to show support for the mission. They are having problems getting the word out:

If you haven't seen this yet: A campaign by active-duty troops asking Congress to drop plans for a withdrawal from Iraq. Lt. Jason Nichols, a 33-year-old naval projects officer who has been in Baghdad since mid-January, said the goal is to keep lawmakers focused on letting the military finish its mission in Iraq, and not prematurely declare failure

Harry Reid and his Democratic cohorts in Congress are doing everything short of taking up arms against America to make certain America loses in Iraq.

Reid: War in Europe is lost. Battle of the Bulge proves that Germany is unbeatable. Maybe if we get good surrender terms the 101st Airborne Division will be released from POW camps by 1950.

I thought most of the violence is, and has been, in Baghdad.

Typical America-hating, Commie Dem. Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. If and when we are successful in Iraq the Democrat Party could self-destruct. They can’t afford a U.S. victory.

"this war is lost"

Reid's engaging in some serious wishful thinking. There's no doubt he and most of his Democrat cohorts would like nothing better than for America to lose. That attitude would immediately change, however, if a Democrat got elected President in '08.

This is unbelievable. I guess I’ve really underestimated how much of a number Vietnam has done to the psyches of libs.

Go to hell, Reid.

The man who say he can and the man who says he can’t, both of them are right.

You know, Mr. Reid said during a broadcast interview last year that he was a pessimist. He was right.

Too bad we can’t get a big, steaming, hot cup of STFU to Mr. Reid this afternoon.
