Terrorists celebrate- US obligingly delivers Iraqi timetable!
Somewhere in the world there are elated terrorists reveling in the fact that Americans are stupid. We are like a mighty giant- strong of limb and tough of hide; but too dumb to direct our strength in any way but farce. Or maybe we’re not so much stupid, really, as we are divided. It’s as if one half of the American body invites the serpent to strike as the other half desperately attempts to either destroy the snake or drive it off.
And there really is no need to guess who is inviting the serpent in, is there? The Democratic Party has, if not having outright sided with the terrorists, at least handed them on a silver platter what even the militarily ignorant have understood throughout history; you don’t announce to your enemy when you’re ready to give up.
One simply cannot imagine Churchill telephoning Hitler in 1944 to advise that, after the dawn of the New Year, the British people will have simply given too much and will quit. Or Lincoln telegraphing Grant mere days before Appomattox to advise the general to surrender because too many troops are dying.
The Democrats are traitors to their country, traitors against our military, traitors towards the Iraqis depending on us, and traitors to peace itself- for there is no peace in surrender to the forces of militant Islam. There will be genocide in Iraq if the Democrats have their way- and eternal shame on our generation for allowing it to happen.
Read the whole, shameful act of blind idiocy in this AP story.

The Democrats are traitors?
Are you serious?
Your complaint isn’t with the Democrats. It is with the MAJORITY of your fellow citizens. The majority who elected a Democratic congress to bring about change in the failed Iraq policy, who overwhelmingly disapprove of the way Bush is doing his job, who want a timetable for bringing home our troops, who believe that we cannot solve the Iraq dilemma through military action. The Democrats in Congress represent the clear will of the people on this matter. Isn’t that how democracy is supposed to work?
Since the United States returned sovereignty to Iraq some time back it is hard to see how setting deadlines for the Iraqi government to meet in order for us to start withdrawal could be construed as signaling defeat. After all, didn’t Bush declare “mission accomplished” some time ago? And it is harder still to understand why President Bush now differs so radically from candidate Bush, who, when criticizing President Clinton concerning Kosovo, said “Victory means exit strategy, and it’s important for the president to explain to us what the exit strategy is.”
I would ask if candidate Bush was a traitor, siding with the enemy, or announcing to the enemy that we were ready to give up when, concerning our military in Kosovo, he said “I think it’s also important for the president to lay out a timetable as to how long they will be involved and when they will be withdrawn.”
My answer to that question is, certainly not.
And certainly your vilification of those of us who disagree with our president today is totally out of line.
