Hes willing to compromise. Unlike some Democrats, hell hear Petraeus out; hell just simply refuse to believe anything he says that doesnt fit the lefts narrative. If that reasoning sounds familiar, thats because its exactly what Eric Boehlert and various nutroots morons accused the right of doing during the Jamil Hussein episode. Allegedly we couldnt accept that conditions in Iraq were dire so we concocted a sourcing scandal to explain away a dubious AP report about Shiites lighting Sunnis on fire, which, once discredited, would call into question the totality of reporting from the country. Sheer, unadulterated horseshinola, but thats What Warbloggers Believe according to non-warbloggers Boehlert et al. Now heres the Senate majority leader doing precisely the opposite, willfully turning a blind eye to any signs of progress, however modest, to protect his own quasi-religious conviction that nothing but nothing good has ever come from the war and nothing ever will. Wouldnt be the first time the left has done that, either. I included a bit at the beginning of the clip to show how absurd are the Clintonian semantics hes resorted to in order to spin his recent declaration of defeat. Petraeus doesnt believe, as Reid apparently does, that the war is lost; he believes that military force alone cant win it at this point. Reid says he doesnt grasp the distinction, but of course he does hes just worried about losing some of those extra Senate seats he expects to pick up from an American defeat. All other consequences be damned.

Quote: “So, General Patreus is a liar and not to be believed?!?”
Oh no, he is to be believed when he says the war can’t be won (which he never said) but to be ignored when he says we are winning with our new strategy.
Is this why the MSM is digging up the “Tillman” debacle and declaring that the Leech-rescue-was-fake material right now? I.e., “if the military lied about these things, then Praetus is lying, too...”
Man, oh, man.
Thanks for the reminder:)

Every time this guy or any of the other slack-jawed, communist, nanny-state, surrender-monkey, traitorous SOB types shows up on television, one finds it necessary to choke back the most vehement streams of profanity!
learning to hate like an Apache...
Ruefully
Reid and his ilk absolutely disgust me. How many trips to Iraq has this bastard made? “The war is lost” Reid should be recalled....and now!
Only God knows how much blood is on the hands of reid and his fellow travlers because of their encouragment of the terrorists. IOF veteran.
Sorry that should be OIF Vet. I am so hopping made at the traitors in Washington that I cannot see straight.
Reid: La la la la la, can't hear you!

right!
and so when are the pubbies going to wake up and realize
that you can’t fight a war if the socialist left is
undermining the war at home?
I called my 2 senators, Burr and Dole, today and demanded they stand up to the dems and defend our troops.
Fat lot of good it will do though.
Your welcome, please pass the word.
Will do!
BUMP
