I guess we have to fight on without them. Senator Harry Reid informed the President in the last couple of days that the war is “lost”. Then, in what should have been a non-event , Senator Reid held a press conference to say the same thing to those wonderful reporters in the Washington Press Corps knowing full well that he had a shot at front page press. It's just too bad that a domestic mass murderer got in the way of Senator Reid's PR ploy.
I'm thinking that Senator Reid could be confusing his Vegas experiences with the war. Maybe he’s been losing lately at the gaming tables or in the Nevada real estate game.
Curious thing though, according to a Breitbart.com report, after he said the war was "lost" he then said “... I believe the war at this stage can only be won diplomatically, politically and economically.”
Let's get it straight, Senator Reid, shall we? Is the war lost or not? How can we win a war diplomatically, politically, and economically that we’ve lost already?
The logic of these seemingly self-contradictory statements escapes me, but one thing does not. The Democratic Party leadership has quit on the war. We need them out of the way. They haven’t been any help or encouragement lately (or ever, for that matter). Recent events with Moqtar Al-Sadr and his people indicate that the Democrats are getting their ridiculous timetable ideas from Al-Sadr. I'm not sure how the Democrats have been getting a pass from the press in their obvious agreement and sympathy with our enemies (and the enemies of the Iraqi people), but it's time to take the Democrats out of the game. Wait...I lost my head for a second. We're talking about the press here. That explains it.
Somebody in the Republican Party has to call a coward a coward. If you don’t have the stomach or the fortitude for the fight, Senator Reid, at least have the courage to step down and get out of the way. Your resignation is hereby accepted.
