IS DEFINING "VICTORY" IN IRAQ AN EXERCISE IN FUTILITY?
These posts are what you do best, Rick. Laying it out in a reasoned and common sense way. I am so discouraged with the lack of common sense in today's world.

The president's opposition don't get it. The lessons learned from Vietnam are haunting us now. The war then was not lost militarily but here at home. My husband is a Vietnam vet and worked in Iraq just before the war began in 2003. He totally supports our effort there. When this outcome is spun as defeat it will spit in the face of all the heroes, American and Iraqi. My husband developed relationships with his Iraqi collegues and putting a face on the situation steels a man's resolve.
CNN SEES NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN US AND TERRORISTS
I think "dumbest schmuck" sums it up nicely. Doss should immediately be fired as he wouldn't have the integrity to resign. This shows a major lack of ethics. This is why I do not watch CNN, only the Headline News in the middle of the night when no one else is on.

I know people in Iraq and I cannot imagine what a mother or wife of a soldier must think as she watches this crap.
A LIBERAL MANIFESTO AND OTHER HALLOWEEN FRIGHTS
IF they take the House, Dems will soon learn that slogans will only take them so far. With a Republican Senate and President, though, perhaps the two remaining Bush years will remain at a stalemate and no real damage incurred. The party of NO will have to eventually come up with actual policy and not just undoing everything from tax cuts to judicial nominations. Americans are an optimistic people by nature. The populace will not continue to go down the road of supporting voting against and not for someone. San Fran Nan and Dirty Harry are not beacons of inspiration.

ARE PRE MORTEM REYNOLDISTAS SABATOGING THE GOP?
The last line of this post sums it up nicely: Stop whining and go vote. Amen.

REYNOLDISTAS VS. HEWITTONIANS: WHO'S RIGHT?
I particularly like your last sentence. I choose optimism, laced with reality, any day. I am not cedeing the election to a Democratic House but if it should happen, I hope we Republicans rise above it and return to civil behavior. I hated what the party became during the Clinton years and since the Republican takeover, the Dems have been enjoying payback and nothing but shouting gets done.

GO WEST, YOUNG BEARS...GO WEST
My mother in law, in Bloomington, Indiana is best friends, forever, with Rex Grossman's grandmother. A group of "the girls" got together to watch him whenever possible during his college years. He could do no wrong with them.

DECLASSIFIED NIE LEAVES UNANSWERED QUESTIONS
Excellent post. Today's press conference with Presidents Bush and Karzai was the best I've seen in years. I'm blogging about it in the morning. The Presidents were on the mark explaining that it is not the war in Iraq generating jihadi terror, solely, but that democratic countries were under attack beginning long ago. Karzai was masterful in his crystalization of the merits of being on the offense against the enemy. You could have heard a pin drop when President Bush said he was declassifying the NIE document. The questioning journalist didn't know what hit her.

Idiot. I'm tired of the phrase cheese eating surrender monkey, but, until something better comes along...
I chipped in. Hope my skills with PayPal worked, kinda rusty. Good luck.

"PATH TO 9/11:" BLAME BUSH HARDER!
The ending of your post is so true, Rick. All this finger pointing back and forth is not at all helpful. It sure doesn't help those souls lost on that day. There is more than enough blame to go around. It only makes sense that the Clinton administration would figure prominently in the story, as they were there for the previous 8 years. President Bush was on in there for 8 months.

The most important thing is for both sides of the political game to finally come together and be Americans first, not Democrats or Republicans, when it applies to our national security.
