Welcome. I dumped the republican party a long time ago. I vote conservatives, no longer for the RINO party.

"The president responded, "I don't want to pass this off to another president. I don't want to pass this off, particularly, to a democratic president," underscoring he understood how serious the situation was."
Read the article again! That's Tim Russert paraphrasing what someone else said that President Bush said. That's some damn tricky "journalism!"

I don't want to pass this off, particularly, to a democratic president," underscoring he understood how serious the situation was. Doesn't matter what he wants, he will hand it off to the next president. And it may be a Democrat.

Rassmussen is the most accurate pollster out there. The others are trying to change public opinion, not measure it.

There is not much to say. Dubya has been flunking lunch for few years now. Even when he is right, he either cant or wont make a convincing case to the American people. He has morphed into our Jimmy Carter. Sad but true. And one more truth is that we really haven't been waging a real war against the insurgents in Iraq but essentially locked ourselves into a holding pattern; waiting for the Sunni and Shiites to put aside their differences and mutual hatred and truly work together for a fully unified Iraq.
God knows if or when that will actually happen. I've always felt the country would have to be partitioned at some point.

“Things getting better”. Do you realize what kind of trap that is setting. Things change rapidly in war. Our enemies know how to work us over politically. TET.
plus, “Things getting better” is not good enough with the American people anymore I guess.
To WIN the war. And I am talking about winning it. We need more troops. We need to kick some butt. We could have done that in 2003 and 2004. and we should have..
To: Agent Smith
Well said. He sucks at letting us know exactly why he does things. I wonder if he has to many stuffed shirts telling him that it would not be presidential to explain himself. I hate it. Come on tv and tell us something, anything for crying out loud. I am sick of it.
To: Loyal Buckeye
That’s pretty much the point - there is no corrections page for guys like Russert. If this wasn’t a defining moment, and I’d bet the house it was not, no one will hold Russert to his interpretation of the facts. He just goes on to make another oracular editorial the next night. Got to hell, Mainstream Media, you egg-sucking pigs!

Santorum didn’t lose on the war. He lost because Casey neutralized him on guns and abortion, because of Casey’s beloved father and because on the top ticket, Rendell brought out Democrats in droves (especially in and around Philly) while Swann did the exact opposite for Republicans.
The overriding political reality is that there are many political realities.

Petraeous is a sell-out! Email President Bush not to cave in. Too many have died or been seriously wounded to be forsaken by a cut and run. Allow our troops to finish the job with all the equipment they need to accomplish their mission!

pull out. If the President of The United States doesnt truly want to win the war.. and it is clear to me that he doesnt.
If the United States Congress does not want to win the war. and it is clear to me that they do not.
Dont waste anymore American lives..if we are not in it to win.
To: freedomdefender
Think your prediction through. Is there any possible upside for Republicans agreeing to withdraw? It will make the traitors look right. And, why are you assuming that September won’t bring good news, anyway? Who leaked this meting and its contents to the press, anyway?

It is a damned good thing that the majority of the current public of the USA, and the current US Congress were not alive or in power during WWII or even the revolution, otherwise we would have been welcoming our Queen on her visit to her largest colony this week, or would be seig-heiling to Hitler’s son or grandson right about now. Few of the current US Congress has the balls to win. Fewer of the citizens of this Republic are for winning any more. Oh, just don’t mess up my TV time, or my ball game, and everything is fine. /sarcasm still on.

Did you believe Rove when he said, “I’m looking at 68 polls a week for candidates for the U.S. House and U.S. Senate and governor, and you may be looking at four to five public polls a week that talk attitudes nationally... I add up to a Republican Senate and Republican House. You may end up with a different math, but you are entitled to your math. And I’m entitled to the math.”

If you are not following that Sunni Tribes all over Iraq are forming an alliance to fight Al Qaeda and not work with them anyomre, then you are unimformed. Al Anbar province, once very deadly has done a 180 degree turn for the better thanks to the Sunni tribes, since the surge has begun. Petraeus brought this information home to COngress and many of us were listening. Guess you were not.
Things are getting better and they will continue to do so.

We need more troops. The Marines are looking for a few good men. Or you could always be Army strong.
