It would be great if Republicans up for reelection based their decisions on their best assessment of the prospects for the war instead of the current poll, but I know that’s silly talk.

When the President first proposed the surge- only 11% thought it could work. Then Bush attached it to Petraeus wagon (and to his spotless reputation) and it became Petraeus plan.

Then we went through another cycle of the GOP accusing the Democrats of wanting the surge to fail when they tried to avoid funding it in the first place. I guess they could see this day coming, and didn’t need to wait until September, since the strategy doesn’t really make any sense, unless you believe that Maliki was capable of leading the Iraqi gov’t to a political compromise and unifying the country.

I’m wondering when the Republicans in congress will finally admit (by their votes) that this plan is just another Bush flop.

The spin has spun out. America is waking up and I do hope the neocons and the entire Republican party enjoys the full fury of the electorate next year. Time for a BIG change. Something decisive enough to utterly crush the lawless, secretive, irresponsible and unaccountable trends of the last 7 years. Good riddance! Too bad we had to waste 3500 Americans, 12,000 American limbs and over a half million Iraqis on this stupid misadventure.

Every non felon is allowed to vote. It may well be part of the problem. But the remedy would be much much worse.

The pendulum will swing. We’re seeing it now.

The real question is: should the 23% who think it is going smoothly be allowed to vote”?

Better the cheerleaders get a clue late than never, but so much damage has been done there isn’t much in the way of satisfaction that can be taken by those who predicticted this result. Here’s my question: Will those who led us into this state of incredible and needless waste ever be in any serious way held accountable? Or are they so insulated by their power they will continue their lives unscathed after ruining the lives of so many others?
