Military adviser rips Democrats over Iraq bills
July 28, 2007
By S.A. Miller - A top U.S. military adviser yesterday rebuked the Democrat-led Congress for ignoring recent success of the troop surge in Iraq and trying to hamstring the war effort with legislation.
"Your actions here in the Congress appear to be in direct conflict with the realities on the ground where the trends are up and progress is being made," retired Army Gen. John M. Keane, adviser to U.S. commanders in Iraq, told a House panel that is considering time limits on troop deployments.
"Your resolution, like so many others proposed, ties the hands of our military commanders and deprives them of the opportunity to use the appropriate level of force for the time that is required to use that force," he said.

When it comes to war, the Democrats will settle for nothing less than complete and unconditional surrender.
Ours, that is.
Democrats =
Cheerleaders for failure
did anyone see the female Dem Rep from Calif. suggest that
America ‘take it’s spine stiffening medication’ ?
To RUN from the war!....
What is wrong with these peoples brains?
Maybe it was a Freudian slip ! They are all on
medication! That’s what causes them to think ,and speak ,’like this.
To the chronically deceitful, reality interferes with their demagogic vision.
Elsewhere I saw this man written off as a neocon.
At work this week I received yet another foolish anti-war cartoon from a group of democrats. I responded with a simple question. “Do yo want the US to win the war in Iraq? Yes or no.” More than 2 dozen emails over Thursday and Friday, not a single yes or no answer from the left of center crowd. The right of center crowd responded with Yes, or Hell Yes in their first response.

You're showing your cards again, Nance. We know which side you're on.
Ping.
I saw him on FOX NEWS. Quite an interesting exchange was had with one of the Congresswomen who insisted he was being too optimistic.
It's one thing to have a difference of opinion. It's quite another to refuse to acknowledge reality.
God, I hate these people.

Of all the unmitigated gall of these cretins. They should all be lined up in a firing squad and shot for treason.
The Al Queda believe they brought down the Soviet Union as a result of their victory in Afghanistan and they believe that they will do the same to us (and Israel) either as a result of a victory in Iraq or some follow on place(s) like Lebanon. This is a war against everything Western (Israel is a Western state in the Mid East; a bigger sin than being Jewish). They will not stop as long as they think they can defeat us as a nation the same way they broke the will of the Democrats. This is classic Sun Tsu strategy and we are too self absorbed in Paris Hilton and American Idol to realistically contemplate what can happen.
