Indeed fellow patriot omega39. I'm an Independent voter and am old enough to remember when their were honorable and honest Republicans. McCain was one of them. He has lost all credibility, and betrayed his country. I am very ashamed of, and sorry for, him. As I am of anyone still remaining in the Republican Party.

In fact, if you're an American and find yourself still registered with the Republicans your patriotic duty is to immediately register with a different party or as an Independent, and disavow the principals and ideals of the new fascist Republican Party.

Victory in Iraq is STABILITY and self governance. The American people will certainly never here any progress being made in Iraq via CBS reporting, it's not part of the CBS agenda. The CBS polls state 59% of the American people want a withdrawel date but at the same time other polls show a majority of American people want stability before we withdraw. Tha bad guys in Iraq are now using Chemical bombs, chlorine gas to be specific, was that repoerted here at CBS NO! One has to ask why? If there is evedince that Al quada is no longer restrained in the use of WMD's it would signal an even greater to counter this. How can a timetable for retreat enhance stability? While most here in these posts are anti-war and anti-Bush no one ever offers the plan for what happens after America withdraws.

"Rafterman Most Klansmen are actually known as "Dixiecrats" and vote Democrat."

Uh, no. Forty years ago maybe. But TODAY, most Klan are Repubs (like David Duke). In fact, it's pretty laughable to suggest Klan are voting Dem these days. Because we all know them Klan boys love being in FAVOR of gay marriage, civil rights, amnesty for immigrants and affirmative action. Hilarious. Pretty soon you are going to tell me that blacks make up the majority of the Klan.

Aaaahhh!, McCain's on CNN right now backtracking from his ludicrous claims!.

He's now even claiming that he didn't say that people could walk the streets of Baghdad without protection (even though they played a clip of him saying exactly that 10 seconds before).

In fact, he just said that Baghdad is still a dangerous place, that people do still need armed escorts, but that we're making progress. Really.

My goodness. It's just like the twilight zone, or at least like dealing with people who don't know that video recording exists.

I'm not kidding, exaggerating, or being insulting. The simple fact is that whenever the Bush administrations lips are moving it is lying.

It is the most vile, corrupt, and treasonous administration in American history. It has even proudly, boldly, and overtly embraced fascism, or as they like to call it, the "Unitary Executive". Which simply means exactly what it sounds like - the President is dictator.

I really wish President Bush & Senator McCain were right about that new strategy in Iraq. They say it is now working, but sadly it still looks very bad and getting worse as the violence only escalates.

What happened to the joint commission and their recommendations? Would they too quickly erode Halliburton profits? Why are we back to just following what the "decider" wants even though he has so frequently decided wrong!?

***, I missed that one fellow patriot!. But in an earlier post I related an interview I saw yesterday on CNN with an embedded reporter in Baghdad who was asked to comment on McCain's statements (he's been making the same ridiculous claims all week).

The reporter was flabbergasted, especially about the claims that there were now suddenly streets where foreigners could walk freely without armed escort. He said McCain's statements were "incredible", that he could barely be heard over the gun battles behind him and helicopters over him, and then incredulously asked that McCain tell him where these "safe" streets were, and come to Baghdad so he and the Senator could walk them together.

Whenever the Bush administrations lips are moving it is lying.

Oh please. There is no such question.

Sheesh.

When will the neo-cons realize that their "Unitary Executive - The President is dictator" bull is no longer going to fly, except into a fan.

It is also going to end with Bush and Cheney's impeachment, and their henchmens trials, for high treason against The United States of America.

There is a good question whether Congress, constitutionally, can forbid the president - even using its spending power - from engaging the declared and active enemies of the United States wherever he can find them. Significantly, the Constitution requires the three branches of government to defend the United States. After all, providing for the common defense was one of its primary stated purposes.

Realizing, perhaps, that it is on thin constitutional ice, Congress appears willing to grant the power for the president to prosecute "counterterrorism" operations in Iraq, even while cutting off the funding for combat missions. Unfortunately for its proponents, this language - whatever its merits as a political gimmick designed to demonstrate Congress' anti-terrorism machismo - makes the problem even worse. It would amount to true congressional micromanagement - telling the president, for example, that he may attack an al-Qaeda training facility in Fallujah, but cannot engage the local militias operating alongside al-Qaeda.

This type of militarily nonsensical splitting-the-difference compromise, of course, is a perfect example of war by committee - and confirms the Framers' wisdom in vesting the power to direct America's armed forces in one individual, the president of the United States.

"I got dogs with better sense than that site shows"

You are the one who supports being drawn into Iraq by al Queda as a diversion while the real plots against America are hatched in other countries like Saudi Arabia and Pakistan. It doesn't take a genious military strategist to see that, but somehow that concept has eluded you.
