Democrats Push for a Timetable for Defeat that the President Doesn’t have to Follow

From Harry Reid:

“We’ve not, on this side of aisle, lost sight of the fact the American people have concluded the president’s Iraq policy has failed and we’re demanding a new way forward,” said Reid, of Nevada, who a few weeks ago concluded the Iraq war was “lost.”

Since when do the American people declare victory or defeat in a war? This is just insane that someone like Harry Reid can make a comment as ludicrous as that. The American people have declared loss, it’s time to surrender? What about the generals running the war. The intelligence they have mustn’t be as good as the intelligence the people are getting from the mainstream media.

If you really believe what you said Sen. Reid than just defund the war and end this big game you are playing with our soldiers lives. Bring them home now. Stand up for what you believe in, or do you not believe in anything? You know Americans don’t want to lose so you are trying to play both sides of the fence.You are trying to look tough on the war by setting timetables for defeat, yet trying to look like you are not abandoning the troops.

The latest example of that is this:

U.S. Senate Democrats want to spell out a time frame to withdraw combat troops from Iraq, but might offer President George W. Bush power to waive the deadlines, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said on Monday.

Now they are going to propose a timetable for defeat but the president doesn’t have to follow it. What does this do. It does nothing, all they are doing is wasting time and energy trying to handcuff the president while our soldiers are in the field risking their lives for this country.

As you can tell I am getting sick and tired of all this talk from American Democrats who say that America can’t win. I am sick of being told America is the cause of all the problems in the world. I am sick and tired of Democrat candidates being more interestted in winning the white house than the war.
