The Race Is On

The President made his speech, outlined his plan. Is it a good one? Not to the democrats in the congress. Of course, they already said it was bad, even before he described it.


Truth: The democrats in congress see themselves as having moved public opinion away from the war. They see the president as unpopular on this issue. Therefore, it doesn't matter what he does, they have their foot on his neck and they plan on crushing him.


Truth: The democrats are not concerned about Iraqi people (although they love say, "We have killed 100,000 Iraqi civilians"), a catch phrase since the beginning. Funny, all the Iraqi people think they are better off than under Saddam, but what do they know? The million of them that he killed, the rape rooms, the poverty, the oppression ---what's the big deal? At least there were no American troops roaming around Saddam's palaces. The peons never know what's best for them. The Dems of congress are like the pigs in Animal Farm. They are arrogant and elitist.

Of course, there are enough Spineless Republicans in Congress that they don't have to worry about much of a fight. The Dems in Congress and the Spineless Republicans like to see which way the wind blows, then say what they want. They vote "against the war before they vote for it." Then after they vote for it, they do all they can to lose it, and run against it in elections.


Of course, what is missed in all this, is the brilliance of a plan to bring democracy to the Middle East ("Idiot. Everybody knows that Iraq is failed" --oh really? It seems the ones who say so are the ones who want to crush Bush. I don't believe Iraq is failed, but it can fail, if we won't get behind. Imagine what would be happening if there was unity).


The Army and Marines on the ground know the truth and are willing to tell it to all who listen. The News Media votes 85% liberal. What does that tell you? It tells you that the people telling the story hate Bush.

Very few people take the time to think for themselves in this world. The obvious hypocrisy of the Dems in congress goes un-noticed by most. Kerry said we should get rid of Saddam by force. So did Clinton. Does that matter? no. That was before Bush came along.

I just don't have the energy to act like there is sincerity among the likes of people like Pelosi, Reid, Kerry, Kennedy, et al. It's an emperor's-new-clothes situation. let the masses drink the cool-aid. not me.

Bush wants to win in Iraq. We can win in Iraq. (indeed, in large part we already have, since Saddam is gone). Whether we win is not a matter of ability. It is a matter of the will.

I owe it to the soldiers in my family (0ne of which has already spent a term in the desert) and the soldiers I know and love, to believe them over Harry-anything-Bush-does-is-wrong Reid. Also, history and common sense come into play. The Iraq Study Group's conclusion? Quit and run. Bush's Solution? Roll up our sleeves, work with the Iraqi government, and make this thing work, no matter how long it takes. The Dems in Congress and the Spineless Republicans solution? "What gets me the most votes? I stand for that"

Call me what you want, but I know charlatans when I see them.
