Don't make the same msitake in 2008

There really is not much to say.

Congress elects Patreus. He is sent to Iraq. After the time alloted, he comes back to the U.S. to give a report to congress that congress said should be given by the president.

The demoocrats made a big stink that Bush would only be delivering a pretty report. Therefore, Bush says, "Okay I'll send the Ambassador and Patreus to congress.

However, many democrats call Mr. Patreus a liar to his face.

Is this fair play? Are democrats being honest with the American people or just playing politics?

Of course many of us know they are just playing politcs.

However, I am wondering just how crazed have these democrats become to call a highly decorated military leader and the sole expert on counter-insurgency a liar?

In addition, this man of honor and great integrity has been spit on and slapped around because of all the people who did not think it was important to vote.

I hope that mistake is not made in 2008. Some one needs to send these democratic thugs back home."

Did you see moveon.org got a discount from the NYT? 

Jake Tapper at ABC News reported that MoveOn.org paid $65,000 for its full page anti-war advocacy sliming of General David Petraeus. This figure raised the suspicions of attentive blogger Confederate Yankee whose intuition appears to be correct. (h/t Michelle Malkin) While looking up the current New York Times rate book he discovered that MoveOn.org received a $102,000 discount on the standard political advocacy rate that is advertised at $167,157.

I had to laugh at Hillary when she sat on her fat butt telling Gen. Patreaus why she knows more about the situation in Iraq than he does.

They aren't proving anything about Gen. Patreaus, they are only showing their own inability to do their jobs. If anyone needs to see an example of total incompetence, they need look no further than the pompous fools sitting in judgement of a man whose jump boots they could never fill.
