Just goes to show how hypocritical some of these US Senators are and play pure, utterly despicable politics to further their ends, which comes to an end November 2006.

The American public, contrary to all this speculation about the polls, do not want to withdraw, neither do they think they are in the wrong war, at the wrong time, in the wrong place. For 8 consecutive years of Clinton’s presidency they were treated to the great threat that Saddam Hussein and thereby his country, Iraq, played in the Middle East.

Has that great hypothesis changed and is the Middle East more radicalised and less susceptible to practising democracy hence reducing radicalism and giving their people a greater sense of freedom and participation in governance- of course!

Senators, please be realistic, clean, and less of foreign agents and more representatives of the people- you simply just can’t cut and run. INtel worth over 14 years clearly gave you reason to believe Saddam was the threat he was- look at the evidence of his rule and destruction guys.

May God bless you, America and the peace of the world, away from tyrants.

How can this be allowed? If this man was wearing a uniform in a war zone he be tried for treason and shot. Warning the enemy about an inpending invasion. His action probably moved the Iraquis to dig in, prepare, and caused deaths of Patriots. His words now are probably enflaming terrorists, and causing the deaths of Patiorts and Iraquis as I write this memo. The problem with trusting democrats with the nation’s security is exactly what we see here. I saw Rockefeller say this on TV. This is not just a slip of the tongue. His ego got the best of him. This was his attempt to inject himself into the historic events leading to the war. This is an act that tells us that this man does not take national security seriously, or is a complete idiot, or just hates America. Here he is, the heir of one of the most successful capitalist families ever, betraying a country that has given him everything. What a waste of a human being.

Just fyi, the Bekaa is in Lebanon, not Syria. Otherwise, spot on.

12:45 PM EST: Has the Senator resigned yet?

Is the press corp camped outside his office on death watch?

Are the nets leading with this bombshell tonight?

Are the cable news channels gearing up for a week long marathon of speculative reports?

Just a small sample of the many questions.
