Here's a crazy idea, MEM.

If the Democrats don't want Republicans to point out that democrats say silly, defeatist, even dangerous, things about the war and the troops....


THEY SHOULD STOP SAYING SUCH THINGS!


So you're all done supporting the troops & want to make some political hay? Good for your party but what do you think that does to troop morale? Wasn't it Bush that said the war on terror could never be won? Guess it's only hurts the troops if a Dem says anything like that.



Bush has made no defeatist remarks that have hurt military troop morale.

The comment you quote of Bush where he allegedly said "the war on terror could never be won" was a liberal media distortion where he was asked by reporter Matt Lauder in an interview aboard Air Force One: "Can the war on terror be won?"
And Bush in a word before he was interrupted said: No.

But if you saw the full interview he clarifies to say, no, it won't be won decisively in a single battle. Because there are terror cels spread all over the world, and no single battle will make the rest surrender.
That's the context of that remark.

As on-the-pulse of the daily events in Washington as you appear to be, I find it hard to believe you don't already know the true context of Bush's remark in that interview.





It is only through such deliberate distortion that Bush can be made to say, even once a year or so through liberal misrepresentation, what the likes of John Kerry, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Ted Kennedy flatout say, in no uncertain context every single day, that our troops are losing in Iraq.

Not Democrats saying : "We need to change strategy to win in Iraq"
Not Dem's saying: "If we make these changes, we can turn this around."
Not Dem's saying: "Our courageous troops have accomplished x, y, and z, but Bush is holding them back by not doing this..."

No.

Democrats are saying that our troops are comparable to : "Nazi storm troopers, Soviet Gulags, and the Cambodian Pol Pot regime."
( Dem Sen. Dick Durbin)

They are saying there's : "NO WAY we can win in Iraq..."
( Dem Campaign chairman Howard Dean )

And similar statements from Kennedy, Pelosi, Kerry, etc.
Every single day.

    Liberals who bemoan discrimination, intolerance, restraint of Constitutional freedoms, and promotion of hatred toward various abberant minorities, have absolutely no problem with discriminating against, being intolerant of, restricting Constitutional freedoms of, and directing hate-filled scapegoat rhetoric against conservatives.

    EXACTLY what they accuse Republicans/conservatives of doing, is EXACTLY what liberals/Democrats do themselves, to those who oppose their beliefs.
