Ask you grand son which party is invested in defeat in Iraq?
To answer you, yes, I will put your question to my grandson. He's easily accessible as he lives with us.
Now we learn that the "party in power", the Dems, have backed down on forcing a "withdrawal from Iraq" date. What is their motivation for this?
They gained their majority in Congress so they no longer need to hold a gun to Bush's head, claiming we never had a reason to invade Iraq.
The fact is, we (as a country), are there. As a result, the U.S. now has to consider the consequences for staying...or pulling out. I'm wondering if the Democrats fear a bloodbath caused by the withdrawal of troops who are there fighting for Iraqi freedom. If that should happen, they can already see the blood on their own hands. Not pretty...in the eyes of Americans. Add to that the message terrorists will receive: The U.S. is weak and defeated.
How long will it take for them to strike in America again? None of us wants that!
Considering the recent "change of mind" of the Dems in Congress, it seems to fall in line with how my grandson has sized up the two parties.
Not to overdo the opinions of a now 24-year-old, let me say that I have had many, many debates with him on political views. At least we're thinking.
