One thing that would NOT have occurred under the Democrat Surrender plan (since we would not be in Iraq to do it) is the capture of the mastermind behind the horrific 7/7 attacks in London:
The al-Qaeda leader who is thought to have devised the plan for the July 7 suicide bombings in London and an [...]

Clearly we have sent a message to an al Qaeda or Taliban leader residing on the Afghan-Pak border:
SignOnSanDiego.com > News > World — Missiles hit Pakistani home near Afghan border.
…
Habib Ullah, the owner of the house, said five missiles hit the building and two empty religious schools nearby. He said the rockets killed four of [...]

It seems everything coming out of DC is pretty inane and idiotic, so I have not had to use the Duh! Files tag for sometime. But occassionally something bubbles out of DC so ridiculous it is hard to believe anyone ever debated the idea for even a split second - let alone two years. [...]

This is another indication that Iran is basically at war with America (and has declared so themselves):
US forces on Friday detained four members of a gang suspected of smuggling armour-piercing bombs from Iran to Iraq and sending back militants for “terrorist training”, the military said.
A statement from US command in Iraq said the suspects were [...]

It seems Saudi Arabia has dodged a big bullet:
Police arrested 172 Islamic militants, some of whom had trained abroad as pilots so they could fly aircraft in attacks on Saudi Arabia’s oil fields, the Interior Ministry said Friday. A spokesman said all that remained in the plot “was to set the zero hour.”
The ministry issued [...]

We are starting to see the vast differences in approach to the war on terror between the Dems and Bush. First off, it is clear the Dems would have surrendered Iraq to al Qaeda years ago, giving Bin Laden his oil rich base of operations. Second, the Dems would have shutdown GITMO and [...]

Senator Surrender and Speaker Surrender need to attend those briefings on Iraq and accept the fact the people in Iraq know more about what is going on in Iraq than their army of sicophant DC and NY political consultants armed with poll results. Anbar is the model for success in Iraq Senator and Speaker [...]

One nice thing about the Canadians and Europeans, their lefty socialist tendencies drive to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt the problems with lefty socialist tendencies. We all can see the disasters of government controlled health care from the experience of the English and Canadians. We can see the failures of gun [...]

Boy, George Tenet is really a big baby. His CIA screwed up the call on the WMDs in Iraq (or more likely missed their transport to other countries like Syria) and now his big complaint is Bush had already decided to invade Iraq and so his CONFIRMATION of WMDs did not change a thing:
In [...]

There is not scientific consensus on the source of Global Warming because all that exist are unproven theories and conflicting evidence. The fact is there are no facts yet. But there are indications that the current warming is tied to solar activity and not CO2 (since the warming is NOT tied to CO2 [...]

The Democrats miscalculated this Iraq funding vote on so many levels it is amazing. They wanted controversy and media time, but now they are probably regretting the idea completely. The debate was supposed to be Dems vs Bush. But it has turned into Dems with al Qaeda and Dems vs our Our [...]

When a Republican polls well ahead of the Top Dem in FL, OH and PA you know he is the best choice and the prohibitive favorite (OK, the term means nothing this far out) to win.

Sen “Boy” Obama once more demonstrated his bush-league campaign tactics:
“We are one signature away from ending the Iraq War.”
I bet Hitler wishes (from the grave thankfully) Obama and his Surrendercrats were in power in the 1940’s! Clearly Obama, if President, would have surrendered. What better tag line for the 2008 elections than “if [...]

The Democrat Congress just painted enormous targets on our military by uselessly passing Bills to surrender Iraq to al Qaeda which provide no other purpose than to embolden the terrorists and giving them the propaganda win they need so bad as Iraqis work to push them out of their country. listen to the military [...]

It seems our efforts in in Irag’s Anbar Province, once the hotbed of the insurgency, are far from the defeat Senator Surrender (Reid) has claimed in this
‘lost’ war:
The U.S. commander of multinational forces in Iraq, General David Petraeus, said Wednesday that efforts to quell unrest in the western Sunni province of Anbar have made almost [...]
