Is it not the case that the difference between a smart man and a stupid man is that the stupid man will not listen to the smart man? In Geroge's case, he will not listen to anybody. What does that say of him and his supporters recognizing that you are know by the company you keep. Oh, and before you reply with the fact that he has smart men working for him and he does listen to them, you have to ask yourself one question: Who picked these smart men that advise him? Huh? Who? Right. Bush. Nothing further needs to be said.

%u201COur strategy in Iraq today is more of the same, a slow grind to nowhere which totally ignores the reality of Iraq and the lessons of history,%u201D Batiste said. %u201COur president ignores sound military advice and surrounds himself with like-minded and compliant subordinates.%u201D

Not that Bush is like Hitler, but didn't Hitler micromanage his generals and cherry pick intelligence reports, too?

"English's spokeswoman, Julia Wanzco, fired back.

%u201Cthese ads are more about cheap Democratic political stunts than about solving the actual problem,%u201D she said."


Cheap Democratic political stunts?

What do you call the deaths of over 3350 young men and women in a needless and cockameny war?

Is that a cheap Republican political stunt?

There is nothing political about bringing the troops home!

It's a matter of life and death!

With all due respect to the Senators and Congresspersons, their regard for reasons to effectively prolong any settlement in Iraq is partially evident in the fact of not actually knowing why U.S. is still required to remain active via military in Iraq. The excuses that are prevalent are not in accordance with the commanders' choices and retired commanders have genuinely opened the doors to argument that it is time to change the course from military to political and philosophical. The tremendous results of staying the course are presented at the end of every day when reconciliation with the purpose and obtaining any objective is considered. The progress forward has only been a talking point - facts do not exist. Not surprisingly, losses must be considered and these facts have to weighted to any reason for justification of staying the course.

Oh no! More GOP defectors "aiding and abetting the enemy" and "denigrating our institutions." LOL

This is becoming a weekly event now.
