Yes there were mistakes made by Bush. No question. And Biden may have been correct -- 3 different states.. Shia,Kurds, Sunis..

But all of that was negated when instead of uniting behind Bush to save American lives... THESE IDIOTS compounded it!
And with the MSM constantly belittling our President, our troops, our purpose.. why else would the terrorists continue to thrive?

I mean with these stupid DUMB ASSES' totally helpful to the terrorists statements like these albeit TAKEN out of context!!!
WHY would THESE idiots HELP the terrorists by making these statements?
Even the below Harvard study proved these statements HELPED EMBOLDEN the terrorists!
Why in the f..k would any of these dumb asses make such statements KNOWING the ENEMY loves to hear them?

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid(D) "The war is lost, the surge is not accomplishing anything "

U.S. Rep. John Murtha(D) "Our troops killed innocent civilians in cold blood,”

Senator Kerry (D) "American soldiers going into the homes of Iraqis in the dead of night, terrorizing kids and children."

Durbin (D) "must have been done by Nazis, Soviets"--action of Americans in the treatment of their prisoners.
Senator Obama said "troops are air-raiding villages and killing civilians,"

and when these statements are made most normal intelligent people would say..."geez doesn't this just help the terrorists in killing more troops"?
FACT:LOOK at this Harvard study found here THE "EMBOLDENMENT EFFECT"

asked: "Are insurgents in Iraq emboldened by voices in the news media expressing dissent or calling for troop withdrawals from Iraq?

The short answer is YES!!! according to Radha Iyengar, a Robert Wood Johnson Scholar in health policy
research at Harvard and Jonathan Monten of the Belfer Center at the university's Kennedy School of Government.

STUDY ABSTRACT
Are insurgents affected by information on US casualty sensitivity? Using data on attacks and variation in access to international news across Iraqi provinces, we identify an “emboldenment” effect by comparing the rate of insurgent attacks in areas with higher and lower access to information about U.S news after public statements critical of the war. (wouldn't you conclude the next president accusing the US military of methodically and systematically air raiding villages killing civilians.. dissent???) We find in periods after a spike in war-critical statements, insurgent attacks increases by 5-10 percent.

So when Reid, et.al. made statements that were NEGATIVE about our military... you don't think the terrorists USED that crap??

 

[healthmyths]

NOT one of you can refute that when terrorists heard Kerry say OUR troops were terrorists there weren't shouts of JOY from them?
When the terrorists read Obama said our military air raiding villages killing civilians... come on are you Obama defenders that stupid
to think those words were used to recruit more terrorists?

AND then OUR MSM certainly didn't help this!
Tell me you Obama/Iraq protestors... HOW Many Iraqis were killed in the Liberation of Iraq? 50,000, 100,000?
YUP MSM broadcast "100,000" Iraqis killed.
I'm going to shout now...
WHO IN THE F...K KILLED MOST OF THOSE IRAQIS? AND IF YOU SAY US TROOPS... YOU ARE F...KING DUMB!

Saddam Hussein and Iraq were not a threat to the vital interests of the United States, and to the extent they were any lesser threat it was not sufficient to justify an invasion.

The supporters of the invasion were wrong. It doesn't make George Bush any less stupid that there were Democrats who stupidly agreed with him.

But, of the Democrats who had a vote on the Iraq war, most of them voted against it.

Overwhelmingly, most Republicans voted for it.

Therefore, if you're trying to make this about party, the Democrats win that contest.

How do you think John Kerry and Hillary Clinton voted?

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Bush turns his attention on Friday to the United Nations after the Senate joined the House in strong votes authorizing a possible U.S. attack on Iraq.

The Republican-led House and Democratic-led Senate by wide margins approved the resolution that Bush wanted to reinforce his demand that the U.N. Security Council threaten the use of force, if necessary, to enforce its requirements that Iraqi President Saddam Hussein abandon programs for biological, chemical or nuclear weapons.


"The Congress has spoken clearly to the international community and the United Nations Security Council," Bush said in a statement issued after the early-hours vote.

"Saddam Hussein and his outlaw regime pose a grave threat to the region, the world, and the United States. Inaction is not an option, disarmament is a must," Bush said.

The House earlier Thursday passed the resolution 296-133 after three days of debate.

Under intense pressure from the White House, which wanted a big bipartisan majority in Congress to strengthen its hand in its confrontation with Iraq, the Democratic-led Senate passed the war powers resolution, 77-23.
