And one side of that equation....your side, is intent on surrender, weakness, betrayal, and lack of foresight. So I think Bush is realizing that because of the whining from the left, and their own lack of any plan whatsoever, he's got to put some heat on these people before he leaves.
Ho hum. Where does one begin?

First off, that whole thing about the left being hell bent on surrender and betrayal and all that yap, I think i'll pass. Seriosuly, if we cant elevate the conversation above "your side is chicken!" with absolutly absurd comments like this, is there really a point?

As for the left not having a plan, you may have a point. (with the exception of Biden, who will scream his plan until somebody listens. Including TIm Russert.) However, throwing anoter 20'000 troops into a conflict with no clear objectives, no time table, and no support at home or in the international community isnt exactly a stellar plan either. Ask Lyndon Johnson.

Foresight?!!? Invasion without exit strategy? You kidding?

As for the poll that started this conversation, it is an obviously skewed poll with an obvious agenda, but a network that makes no bones about its bias under the guise of not being bias. It's a joke, pure and simple, designed to be used by ....well,...those who see it conveniently fit to be used. :hmm:
