62. You still peddling that silliness?
Our teenage leftists want to yank quotes out of context...but all they do is show how dishonest they are.

"But the DLC thinks that the Bush administration is honest and competent enough to salvage things in Iraq, no matter how many more fathers, mothers, sons & daughters get killed in the process"
Yeah? Show us where they said that...

"Demands for an immediate troop withdrawal or arbitrary deadlines risk turning premature declarations that the United States has failed in Iraq into a self-fulfilling prophecy. That is why Democrats must reject them.
If our forces leave before the Iraqis can defend themselves, the result will bea national security disaster for the United States. Iraq will be convulsed intofull-scale civil war that could provoke a regional conflagration. The Sunni triangle will likely become home base for the global jihad network, a safe haven for hatching new terrorist plots against our country and our friends. America will once again have broken faith with Iraq's long-suffering Kurds and Shi'a, and the cause of Arab democracy will be set back for a generation. "
