We in America our experiencing a Tsunami of good news out of Iraq (see all my posts on Iraq here). It is becoming all too clear I will not be able to keep posting on all of them – there are now just too many! But let’s do one more simply because it is from […]

Only Hitchens can say the obvious with such power and force. A tidbit: A few weeks ago, in Britain’s Prospect magazine, the paper’s foreign editor, Bartle Bull, published a bold essay saying that the high tide of violence in Iraq was essentially behind us and that the ebb had disclosed some interesting things. First, the […]

The led zeppelin of defeatism on Iraq is crashing and burning like the Hindenburg did when it brought an end to airships. Gateway Pundit has a graphic showing the stunning numbers on the drop in violence across Iraq. The entire country of Iraq must be thanking George Bush for “staying the course” and not giving […]

After a year of putting it all on the line in Iraq, after a year which was the deadliest for US troops fighting a war Congress authorized, after a year of beating the odds and actually winning in Iraq and destroying al-Qaeda, the Surrendercrats in DC are going to reward all this with a petty […]

Boy, oh boy! Are the democrats in deep trouble with the American people over Iraq. The Dems NEVER ran on a policy of retreating in defeat on Iraq. They promised to change course – but never once explained to America they meant make us all losers. After voting for the war in 2003, the Dems […]
