“Wrong, totally false. In every poll taken this year, almost double the number of Americans believe that invading Iraq was a mistake than those that say it was the right thing to do.”

Fine Elle, but there’s a reason we hold elections (as there’s a reason that people like Hillary are surprisingly moderate when discussing the war in Iraq) . . . you better make sure all these fine opinion-having folks go to the trouble of voting this time . . .

“There is a vast misinterpretation of what the president’s lack of popularity means. It doesn’t mean the people thought going into Iraq was a bad idea, as the Democrats seem so convinced. ”

Wrong, totally false. In every poll taken this year, almost double the number of Americans believe that invading Iraq was a mistake than those that say it was the right thing to do.

If you could only see ONE documentary on the Iraq War, let it be “No End In Sight.”

“No End In Sight” is the winner of the Documentary Special Jury Prize at the 2007 Sundance Film Festival . It deserves the award and many more. The film is a shocking inside look at the stupidity, ignorance and bad decision making that went into the planning and implementation of the Iraq War.

It’s the first film to chronicle the Iraq side of the descent into guerilla warfare. Numerous interviews with U.S. government officials, many for the first time, will leave you absolutely stunned! Col. Paul Hughes is of particular interest and if there was any justice, he would be given the Medal of Freedom. Additional interviews with Gen. Jay Garner, Ambassador Barbara Bodine, Richard Armitage, Col. Lawrence Wilkerson and Major General Paul Eaton will open your eyes to the incompetence and sheer idiocy of this incredible folly.

No end in sight - the documentary. Google it.

Conservative Republicans is an oxymoron. The Republicans have deserted the Conservatives and VV is right, the Republicans are just as responsible for the Low Rating. My congressman, Marsha Blackburn is No Conservative, but she is a Republican. I vote Her (and the whole bunch) bad. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

[...] Nathan Moore on the news that Congress has hit a new low approval rating. He, of course, chalks this up to the party of Majority: As noted in the story, the last time Congress suffered such disdain, the next election brought in the Republican revolution of 1994. The difference this time is that the next election happens to be a presidential election year. If 1994 had been 1996, Bill Clinton would have been a one-term failure. [...]

Wanting a functioning Democracy in Iraq and wanting American soldiers to stay in Iraq indefinitely until that occurs is two-different things.

I don’t know how Fred Thompson’s smooth baritone voice is going to turn a crap policy into a successful one…I guess we’ll see if Americans are willing to waste another 4 years on a Republican President to see if he can simply talk the Iraqis into getting along and creating a thriving Democratic utopia.
