Let’s not forget Senate majority leader Harry Reid who said on 19 April of this year (as reported by Anne Flaherty of the Associated Press),
“I believe myself that the secretary of state, secretary of defense, and - you have to make your own decisions as to what the president knows - [know] this war is lost and the surge is not accomplishing anything as indicated by the extreme violence in Iraq yesterday.”
He stated he thought the war could not be won through military force but only through political, economic, and diplomatic means.
...but he totally supports the troops by tearing down their morale while building up esteem of the freedom fighting terrorists.
I love these guys!
Yep, that’s another good quote. Of course, it doesn’t quite fit into the theme I was using of slamming the troops themselves.
