Democrats everywhere are deeply saddened.

QUICK! HURRY! can the dems still raise the white flag before the last terrorist leaves?????? Oh no! what shall they do now? I guess dialogue really wasn’t what end all.

Dingy Harry is flummoxed by the rout of Al Qaeda and Mama Boss Pelosi has expressed her disappointment the terror group had not held out awaiting the Democrats coming to its rescue.

[Eric Blair 2084]

This is horrible, horrible news.

[Son House]

Terrorist are going to have no place to call home, saddening Democrats even more.

[yldstrk]

Good riddance.

[Cobra64]

Democrats everywhere are deeply saddened.

"Yes we are saddened. Deeply, deeply saddened."

But Benedict Murtha and the Jihadicrats told us the war was lost etc.

Stealing the quotation from Allegra because I like it so much:

"This ain't no way to run a quagmire!"

[janereinheimer]

So tell me again, Nancyness and Baghdad Bob Reid, what exactly is not working?

[Recon Dad]

Bush should be holding press conferences every day side by side with actual troops to hammer what is happening home.

[M Kehoe]

Now, on to Persia.

And to the mullahs, and Ahmanutjob, payback is gonna be a bit@h.

Too bad this post had to come from the Khaleej Times instead of the New York Times.

I guess that shows what Times we are in.

May Allegra have that quiet dinner in a Baghdad sidewalk cafe very soon. And God bless our military.

News you won’t see in a major American Media outlet, that’s for sure...

It doesn’t help in the eternal struggle to “Get” Bush for winning in 2000, so it must be buried...

“We were 50 at the start, we now number more than 1,000. If God wants it, we will soon be 1,500”

I don’t find it particuliarly heartening that one - non government controlled - group got rid of another. Of course, I’m glad to see Al Quada get shoved off, but how long before this group gets to feeling its oats and makes trouble for the Iraqi government and thus the U.S. military?

And who is the group that funded them? The enemy of my enemy is not always my friend.

In Afganistan we supported the Taliban fighting the USSR only to have to fight the Taliban ourselves.

I would prefer that the locals snitch on the bad guys and let us (the U.S. military) take them out, or the Iraqi government do so with our help. Militias in that part of the world are just gangs.
