Failure Is Not An Option
It seems Rumsfeld’s replacement is as bullish on Iraq as The Don himself. Gates is clearly laying down the law – failure is not an option. Neither is surrender in any cutsie variant Mad Murtha can conjure up. And that includes redeployment (a.k.a., an organized retreat). So while Bush and Gates play Churchill, the Dems Play Neville Chamberlain and the Islamists are besides themselves wondering when the promised surrender of Iraq (and therefore the entire ME) is going to happen. They are looking for the Dems to bring about America’s failure and demise. Fortunately the Dems don’t run the country, they just run their mouths.
