"it's even more right to point out what they're dying for. A liberated Iraq. A freer Iraq. A better Iraq"

Cavuto, get your leftie butt off the international stage and stick to reporting on which stock is up or down.

Cavuto, perhaps because of his lack of political experience, makes more common sense than 90% of the commentary I hear out there.

**Americans didn't question the value of what we were doing then. (re-construction of Germany) We shouldn't grow impatient with what we're doing now. I guess it's far easier to write damning stories about all that's going wrong, than for one solitary moment, to consider all that is going right. ** Parentheses mine.

Cavuto belts out another good op-ed. Bravo! From someone of that generation!

God bless.

Thank God for Cavuto....now there are TWO Italian Conservatives that I know who realize that IRAQ is NOT a failure.

"Electricity returning to cities that never had it."

Huh? Other than that Neil's great.

Pubbies protect and defend. Dims detract and pretend. Remember, Democrats are the ones who get into "unwinnable" wars cause they don't have any idea what foriegn policy is. It's "unwinnable" if they can't figure out how to win. It has to be so in order for them to save face. Forbid the thought they'd have to admit they are wrong about something. And afterall, liberals can never admit to being wrong. The closest thing they'll ever come to it is to posit that they may not have thrown enough money at it yet.

That brings me to a point. If Democrats think we're losing in Iraq, then they should be wanting to throw more money at the problem. Instead they want to defund it. When do Democrats ever defund anything. They want the money to go to anything but the President's foriegn policy in order to cripple the war effort it would seem. And while they whine and complain that the War is busting the budget, they attempted a vote in the Senate to bust the budget tonight for one of Clinton's pet reasons for playing Robin hood Marx.

The one thing we can count on is hypocrisy and duplicity from the Democrats. And that is precisely what we're getting between whines and screams that none of their 9 idiots can get any traction cause nobody will pay attention to them. I suppose to them it's better than quietly admitting that they're all over the tube - they can't be escaped save by turning it off and most of America has preferred to turn them off. We're all sick of them - fed to the teeth. They know it - expect the whining to get louder.. The war is won in Iraq. And it's being won here too. The two situations even look similar.

Along the same vein, here is an email I got from my son in Mosul this morning.

hey Dad...that's pretty cool...yes, i am with the 413th out of lubbock, but we are attached to the 431st out of little rock Ark....and yes, that event happened right here where we are living now...i happened to be on a mission the day of the event and i didn't get to participate in it, but from what i hear the kids really enjoyed it...winning hearts and minds....well, thanks for sending the article or post...so i guess the news back home is giving a lot of negative press huh....that's too bad, because unlike a lot of other areas in iraq, the north(mosul, ninevah province in general) is really showing a lot of improvements....you could probably dare say up to pre-war standards or exceeding them in some areas...well, i hope all is well on the homefront...i just wanted to respond to the post....thanks again.... your son Jeff

His email concerns this post from yesterday. Post on Civil Affairs Operation in Mosul
