No Confidence In Congress On Iraq
It what could be a resounding blow to Democrat (a.k.a. Surrendercrat) hopes in 2008 the American public is pretty much unanimoulsy fed up with Congress when it comes to Iraq:
Just 24% give the president favorable ratings of his performance in handling the war in Iraq, but confidence in Congress is significantly worse – only 3% give Congress positive marks for how it has handled the war. This lack of confidence in Congress cuts across all ideologies. Democrats – some of whom had hoped the now Democrat-led Congress would bring an end to the war in Iraq – expressed overwhelming displeasure with how Congress has handled the war, with 94% giving Congress a negative rating in its handling specifically of that issue.
Well, Bush is not facing the voters again, so we know who we can inflict our frustrations on in 2008. 94% is clearly an unprecedented rejection of the Democrat Congress on this matter. And as news continues to come in and grow that The Surge is making a huge difference in Iraq, these numbers (which cannot go any lower) will simply cement into place. Especially as we hear more and more how al-Qaeda’s murderous brutality is pushing the Iraqi, Muslim street to rise up and take arms against al-Qaeda and ally with the Iraqi government and work along side US forces.
al-Qaeda’s blood stained hands from year of massacring Muslims by the thousands is the force now driving the situation in Iraq. The purveyors of a modern holocaust against Muslims, not westerners, are the ones who have brought the Muslim street out to finally decide the path of the future. And al-Qaeda has LOST that debate and is losing all support. They have tried to use “The Dark Lord’s” methods (for you Potter fans) only to find brutality does not breed subervience but only revolt. And Democrats are clearly pushing for America to lose, not win. Not a good place to be.
The Democrats put all their hopes in America losing Iraq. When they did not pull off that loss, by forcing our surrender in the funding votes, they not only screwed their reputation with their anti-war base but they showed the rest of America that they really do want al-Qaeda to succeed. And in succeeding it is clear al-Qaeda will grow much more dangerous and more Americans will die because of it. With the choice now between al-Qaeda losing in the minds and hearts of the Muslim street or America losing at the hands of the Democrats, there is no spinning out of this political death bed. America is unanimous in its rejection of Congress. A good house cleaning (left and right) seems to be in order for 2008.
Sorry I do much better as a troll on the LLL boards, I guess I like using facts too much. Oh well back to the fever swamps to stir up some pond scum.
