Democrats Raise White Flag -- Again June 14, 2007
BEGIN TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Late yesterday afternoon, sometime last night, Dingy Harry and Nancy Pelosi challenged the president over Iraq. They sent him a letter, ahead of a White House meeting later today, and they said, "'As many had foreseen, the escalation has failed to produce the intended results,' the two leaders wrote. 'The increase in US forces has had little impact in curbing the violence or fostering political reconciliation.'"
In other words, the Iraq surge is a failure, Pelosi and Reid have told President Bush. Then a companion story to this, "Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid called Marine Gen. Peter Pace, the outgoing chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, 'incompetent' during an interview Tuesday with a group of liberal bloggers, a comment that was never reported. Reid made similar disparaging remarks about Army Gen. David Petraeus, the top U.S. commander in Iraq, said several sources familiar with the interview," but the Drive-Bys didn't find out about it, they weren't interested in it. This is just the latest example of how Reid, under pressure from liberal wacko kooks to do more to stop the war is going on the attack against President Bush and his military leaders. The timing of this is done specifically to coincide with the current life support status of the Comprehensive Destroy the Republican Party Act of 2007, otherwise known as the amnesty bill. Now, what's especially egregious about this, Reid has gone I think where he was finally destined to go. From criticizing the war to now criticizing the troops and the military leaders, is it any surprise he did this in an interview with liberal bloggers and not Drive-By Media reporters?
