SEN. JOHN WARNER: I hope in the recesses of your heart that you know that strategy will continue the casualties, stress on our forces, stress on military families, stress on all Americans. Are you able to say at this time, if we continue what you have laid before the Congress, this strategy, that if you continue, you are making America safer? PETRAEUS: Sir, I believe that this is indeed the best

George Will has been one of very few conservatives who have kept their wits about them these past few years. That's more than I can say for myself in the fevered days after 9/11. He is fundamentally right about one fundamental question. It's worth repeating so that the hysterics and Weimarites on the "right" finally get it into their heads. George puts it baldly enough for them to understand:The

There, he said it: The United States is no better than Saddam. Thanks for clarifying, Kloin.

In essence what Patreas said is that as long as Geoge Bush is president we will stay in Iraq and pound sand - no matter the cost in lives and US treasure. George Bush has never admitted to any of his failures and always left the clean up to others. The next president will have to extricate our country from the quagmire. When we do finally leave Iraq, the event will be even more vivid a military/

More of the same. Stay the course. Drag your feet. Doing better but not quite there yet. This will take a while. This is hard work. War is hell. Things go wrong. They believe in their sovereignty. Light at the end of the tunnel, Turning the corner. Mistakes were made. We have confidence. We hope to move some troops home soon. We can do this. We just need more time. The insurgents are in their

The grand imitator speaks out of his posterior sphincter orifice.Has he forgotten Democrat Brian Barid, Katie Couric and several other Demcrats who have admitted there is progress to be seen there? Even if they reluctantly admit it, they still admitted it.Odd how those who keep crying we cannot question their patriotism, how much they Suport The Troops and the rest of their meaningless drivel, so

Isn't it funny that all the so-called "leaders" of this country, who "know" everything about what is or is not going on over in Iraq, such as Kennedrunk, Reid, Schumer, Biden, Kuchinich, and all the rest, are the ones to put down Gen. Petraeus yesterday, before the general gave his testimony, are the ones who have not been to Iraq. Nor do they have any intention of going there ,because: a. they

Here's the ad. You decide.Cooking the books for the White HouseGeneral Petraeus is a military man constantly at war with the facts. In 2004, just before the election, he said there was “tangible progress“ in Iraq and that “Iraqi leaders are stepping forward.” Washington Post, “Battling for Iraq,” by David H.
