What progress? One neighborhood in Baghdad only to be taken back over eventually by 1 or 7 different militia groups. Give us all a break!

Ann,
“I have never been so ashamed to have worked with the Democratic Party before in my life. Listening to their response today, I am sickened. Democrats have become the enemy of America! They are destroying their own base with their discourse and disdain.”
It is the President that sold you a bill of goods. Read, learn and become responsible. Americans are bleeding and dying. They have no choice, they are under contract and any violation thereof is punishable by the Code.

“WE THE PEOPLE”

Wars are not won by how the individual battles are fought.

While the Iraqi military perhaps may finally be able to "show up" to fight now...

There is still no political stability and we are dealing with a civil war.

Sunni's are motivated to fight the US so they won't lose their priveledged status under Saddams rule...

Shiite's are historically close to Iran
due to their religious similarities are more influenced by Islamic radical fundamentalism...

Kurds are intent to fight it out with Turkey to help their people in that country raising the stakes even more.

Translation: the US is in a no-win situation

I have never been so ashamed to have worked with the Democratic party before in my life. Listening to their response today, I am sickened. Democrats have become the enemy of America! They are destroying their own base with their discourse and disdain.

Last I remember when the Chinese Embassy was hit and after that, was video of protestors holding signs up and screaming to dare the U.S. Military to target them... our flag was risen in another country also as to say to the United States, "Target this!"

It seems to me now, that there was a 9/11, behind the scenes the United States wasn't granted the resources necessary to go into many other counrties and weed out the terrorists besides the few we are currently engaged with. I beleive President Bush and especially the vice president had these events in mind. Although, that wouldn't have lead us into Iraq with an exception being that Iraq was seen only as a stragtegic placement in order to establish a permanent base there because of disagreements and terrorism. We're being told to turn the other cheek here and that is something that the United States cannot do and the enemies know it!

liar, liar pants on fire...

After hearing thr Presidents speech today it is clear that he is once again loosing touch with the idea's of benchmarks and the American people. The American people are not concerned with "can we win the war" I feel we are concerened with why we have not won the war- The policy of slow action and sub-warlike tatics that have caused this war to go on for longer than WW's. A new phrase from the President "war fatigue" for Americans and his plan keeps us fatigued for another decade- not a good idea for the world! Finally why is it that our services members can be trained in months and the Iraqi's can't be trained in 4-5 years? Let's face it if someone else will work for you why do any work exspecially when it means people die when at work!

Let me guess the answer from “W” will be “Stay the course” “Stay the course” “Stay the course” translated into English it means “I have no clue” “I have no clue” “I have no clue”

Some more translations:
“The real debate over Iraq is between those who think the fight is lost - or not worth the cost - and those who believe the fight can be won and as difficult as the fight is, the cost of defeat would be far higher.”
What he meant to say:
I will spend every dollar available and every drop of American blood it takes to prove my point!
Don’t be fooled AMERICA!

“WE THE PEOPLE”

What did you expect? Be realistic for once.

I think this blog stinks, and the new home page is no better. Would like to be able to commuicate with Lou and Jack the only ones that really are honest and tell the truth at CNN.

Is your freedom glass half empty or half full?
