President Bush’s False Lessons from History
August 22nd, 2007 by Speaker Pelosi

In an attempt to justify his stay-the-course strategy in Iraq, President Bush is offering false lessons from history. The American people have already judged the President’s war in Iraq as the wrong war at the wrong time, and are ready for our troops to come home.

Whatever improvements in security that may have resulted from the efforts of our troops since the surge began, Iraqi leaders have not done the hard political work on which the future of their country depends. And therefore, the purpose of the surge — to enable the Iraqis to produce political reconciliation – has not been accomplished. That is the standard against which Congress and the American people will judge the White House report of September 15.

Instead of continuing to spend money and lives in Iraq, the American people want our nation to refocus its efforts against terrorism worldwide, especially in Afghanistan.

No disrespect ma'am, but you had your opportunity to end the funding for this war and instead you proceeded to refund not only the war, but an escalation of the war, and you are about to line up to do the same thing again.

"The result of American sacrifice and perseverance in Asia," he said, "is a freer, more prosperous and stable continent whose people want to live in peace with America not attack America."

If that view doesn't reflect the continent of Asia post Korean war then I don't know what does.

You're lower than Bush in more ways than one.

Explain continued funding of Bush/War and sanctioning FISA spying on American citizens, if you can...

:wtf:
