WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Rep. Duncan Hunter called Wednesday for Sen. Harry Reid to resign his post as Senate majority leader over remarks that the senator made last week that the war in Iraq "is lost" if the United States continues on its current policy.
Hunter, a candidate for the Republican presidential nomination, is the ranking member of the House Armed Services Committee.
"In my opinion Sen. Reid, having made that statement, which can only have a demoralizing effect on our troops and an effect of encouragement of the adversary, I think it would be appropriate for Sen. Reid to resign his position as the leader of the United States Senate," he said.

Could we do this lottery style or something ?? Draw straws, maybe???
No, just Hunter is.
Reid needs to get “Daschleized”
by the people of Nevada.
“Duncan Hunter: The best man for President.”
I hope this call for Reid to step down becomes a war chant!
You are so right. I emailed my Senator Richard Lugar about Reid's statement. But, as usual, he is still looking for his pair. No reply from him..no public statement condemning Reid.
Maybe if the Republican senators were flooded with emails demanding that Reid step down they would be compelled to repeat Hunters’s words!
About time a REPUBLICAN made that comment -- I've been saying the same thing ever since listening to Reid's comment.
Shoot, let's not wimp out on this, but keep the pressure up on Reid, until he resigns or is censured.
I would also very much like to see an investigation into his background, and see what sort of connections he has to terrorist organizations. I'm sure he's on somebody's payroll...
Reid used to be a “moderate”. At least he wasn’t a moonbat, until he became Majority Leader.
What? Did he say “nappy headed ho?”
Now that’ what I’m talking about...
It could be a pehnomenal fund raiser.
Sounds real good. Im starting to shop and just put a Duncan Hunter in my basket.
The problem is that he’s not up for re-election until 2012.
“If Hunter ever wants a real chance to be President, he’s going to have to start calling ‘em like it is!”
I missed the news on others calling Reid on the carpet. Please list all of the others who have said anything about Reid’s remark.
Minus of course, the amount he needs for "re-imaging". LOL
Cheney ripped him a new one. But from the congress, only Hunter.
Bump for a true patriot - DUNCAN HUNTER!
You insult Benedict Arnold with that graphic. Arnold was a genuine patriot and war hero before he turned tratior. When was Reid?
