But if by the fall of 2008 the Iraq War is won, or is making clear and conspicuous progress toward a good outcome, the Democrats' dogmas will have been gutted, disemboweled, flayed, and decapitated, by success and events, and a credible Republican candidate will be elected the next President. Nothing succeeds like success, and nothing loses like a failed prediction of failure.

Thirty-two years ago, in 1975, after America and the Republic of Vietnam had fought and won a ten-year war to save South Vietnam from the predations of the communist north, a Democrat Congress voted to terminate life support for South Vietnam in the face of another North Vietnamese invasion, backed by the USSR. A Democrat Congress voted to "pull the plug," and condemned millions of Vietnamese, Cambodians, and Laotions to death, torture, imprisonment, and re-education camps, and condemned others to flee their homes and countries as refugees. That, in my view, was the blackest day in American history, and the blood of those people is on the hands of the Democrats who voted to abandon them. The Colonel in charge of my AF reserve training detachment, back in the 80s called the DemonRats, "The Party of Treason". When not in uniform that is, I worked for the same company and on two occasions, in the same building as he did, and would often stop by his office for a chat, usually at the end of lunch hour.
Events since then have shown him to be correct, perhaps even more than he would ever have imagined. (He's no longer with us, being interned in the DFW National Cemetery, where he went out with full military honors, just wish I could have been there.) The difference is he had known it since *before* he served in the Southeast Asia War Games, where due to DemonRat political meddling with the full support of the Lame Stream Media, we took SECOND place. (He would always chuckle when he reflected on the fact that while he made O-6, Full Bull Colonel, the guy who wrote the bad OER on him that got him RIFed from active duty only made Light Colonel and failed selection to 0-6, thus getting outed rather than upped. :)

making clear and conspicuous progress toward a good outcome There has been the whole time...just not reported that way by the 90%+ democrat-registered and monetarily supporting members of the MSM. There is more than one head to the treason dragon. Another group is the tv-addled fools who slurp up the MSM BS like ambrosia because facing reality is too anxiety inspiring...and they are the ones who elected this Congress.

Unfortunately our nation is filled with treasonous haters of America.
The majority of those in Congress work overtime to defeat our constitution and to bring disgrace and dishonor to us all. They are idiots useful to communism.
The only way to defeat them is to turn the central government on its ear.
