Here We Go Again

Critics of President George Bush’s surge/escalation/augmentation plan for Iraq are undercutting the troops (does this include the military present and past who’ve criticized it?).

Can you guess who said this? Here’s more…and you’ll know:

Cheney brought Osama bin Laden in to the argument, saying that attempts to reverse U.S. policy on Iraq was exactly “what he wants.” He claimed that al-Qaeda pays a good deal of attention to criticism in Congress and polls. He said war decisions can’t be based on polls. Reminded by Wallace this it was more than polls — voters had spoken loudly in November — Cheney said that didn’t change the matter.

When Wallace pointed out that many Republicans opposed the latest plan, Cheney said, “Chuck Hagel hasn’t been with us for a long time.”

But aren’t there more….Republicansopposing it….thanChuckHagel?

(Just a question..)
