People like Harry Reid disgust me. If enough of us have the same mentality he does, America might as well surrender now. Yesterday, Reid officially gave up. I’m sure that was a morale booster for each and every one of our men and women working a checkpoint somewhere in downtown Baghdad.
"This war is lost," he said. "[The troop] surge is not accomplishing anything."
And in the dark recesses of some damp cave, Osama bin Laden broke into a wide grin – even as Tehran’s mullahs swapped high-fives.
Can’t you just hear them: Hang tough, guys, it’s only a matter of time here in Iraq – and then it’s back to the Big Apple.
Meanwhile, Reid himself won’t call for an immediate pull-out.
What a coward. Thanks for nothing, Harry.
If you throw away the lives of all my brothers in arms who fought in Iraq, I will hold it against you, and I will take action to ensure you and your ilk are defeated by any means possible. If you break America’s promise to Iraq by fleeing before stability is achieved, I will remember, and you will pay. America needs to cleanse itself of men and women in authority who claim to speak for everyone but do not seem to stand for anything.
