So The Democrats Lied To America, Will Stay the Course in Iraq

You know what we have all been hearing for the past two days? It was the war dummy. It was Iraq. George Bush took us to Iraq and America is tired of it

I am not so sure, there is talk of orders taking the trrops out of the city and into the barracks, with the excuse of handing over power to the Iraqis. Sure sounds like re-treat. the dems don't want to come right out and say it, they'l be out faster than you can say Baghdad.

Well, Congress can't really order troop withdrawal. They can have a huge effect through appropriations, but not this year.

If there were a non-Bush president in there, I'll bet he'd be doing his damndest to fix the occupation/reconstruction first, then try troop withdrawal.

But it would end up looking like it does now. This just goes to show that there are only bad options left in Iraq. If we stay, our troops are just targets waiting to be attacked. If we leave, many more Iraqi civilians will die in civil war. Those are our choices. The choices for Iraqis are even worse.

Now, can we blame Democrats for putting us in this predicament? Sure, we can blame every Democrat that voted to give the Bush administration a blank check to go to war with a country that never attacked us. Nancy Pelosi isn't one of them, but Murtha did. Blame Murtha, and Kerry, Clinton, Edwards, on and on as much as you blame Wolfowitz, Pearle, Rumsfeld, Cheney, Bush, Kristol, on and on. All these people are to blame.

But, we have a new crop of congressmen that didn't vote for the war and are now entrusted to try to steer us out of Iraq. Hopefully they can, but since they aren't in command of the military, then they can't be blamed if troops aren't withdrawn.
