They're pulling out all the stops to prevent progress in Iraq. The entire Democrat caucus is asking the Pentagon to prepare ... publicly ... for a course of action in direct contradiction of the executive branch's policy. The Pentagon is part of the Department of Defense, and that department answers to the president. They're asking the Pentagon, essentially, to ignore the president and do what Congress demands.  

Of course, they know full well what they're doing. They're trying to undermine any possibility that the president's policy might work. They know the president is trying to assure the Iraqis that the surge will provide a window of security, and the Democrats are trying to scuttle that assurance, especially now that it just might be working. It's the equivalent of asking the Pentagon to prepare plans to nuke China, on the eve of a U.S.-China trade summit. They know full well that if the Pentagon complied with the request publicly, it would destroy any chance of progress. It doesn't matter whether the request is carried out. All they need is to make the request public, and they've sabotaged the deal.

Liberals always try the same trick: they use perceptions, spread by the media, to accomplish what they can't accomplish through open argument and debate. They try to make the public believe it's a done deal before they have to explain and justify themselves. They want everyone to assume that an imminent pullout is already a done deal, hoping they won't have to face any questions about what it might really mean.

When KO finally endorces Hill for president will MSNBC admit he's a biased reporter and take him off hosting debates?

"This could get ugly"

And by the way, I can't read the fine print on that graphic -- does it say the margin of error is 31%?

EDIT: I checked the CBS website and it says the error margin is 3%. It ALSO says that, even among the DEMOCRATS polled, only 43% actually want her as their candidate. Funny how they didn't mention that...

Though the discussion of Hill's big-mouth illogical rants against the war gain some surface attention, the real scary problem here is much more intense.  Hill and Bill and their ilk hate the military, hate the CIA, and would spit on the Pentagon if they could.  These liberals are secretly against anyone who wears a uniform or supports the military in any way.  You can bet that privately the speak of all  things military as being beneath their intellectual capacity.  If Billary is elected president, her hatred for the Pentagon and our secret service agencies will probably get a lot of Americans killed.  She'll cut funding, she'll put her people in charge, she'll do what she can to curtail the power of all things military.  Of course, the public does not really see this.  They see the facade Billary creates which makes her look like a supporter of the troops.  It just ain't so.  Liberals like the Clintones, the bores, the Edwardes, et al will always put their idealism first and the safety of the American people last.....so scary. 

I heard about this all last evening when Ubermann was spewing his filthy leftist usual lying rant...

I wrote about some of it on the OT...

Glad I am cooled off now....I was furious with this filthy creep as usual, there is something seriously wrong with this country letting this man spew the things he does night after night on the airwaves during a time of war...(I know all about free speech folks, I know all about turning the channel, I was in a situation where I could not then, in fact I only usually catch the very end of his show if BOR has a segment on I do not care for, which happens about half the time)

I use the term man loosely when referring to him as I cannot say two things here I really want to about him, what I wish for him, and how, and my definition of what this POS is.

He is nothing but beyond a despicable treasonous traitor.
