"I'm sorry, General. You've run out of time"
I really, really want to hear some dem say that. And expound on it.
It seens like a modest request.

What do you want to hear from the dems today?

1. "I think he's dead, flat wrong.""None of us should be fooled."
http://www.usnews.com/usnews/politics/bulletin/bulletin_070910.htm

ABC World News opened by saying, "We've been hearing about it for months. And now, the time has finally arrived." Petraeus "will testify before Congress about the progress of the troop surge," which "could have a major impact on the future of the war. Petraeus is expected to tell Congress, that the surge is working and should be given more time -- an idea that is already being met with resistance." ABC (Cochran) added that before "Petraeus' report to Congress, Democrats delivered their report card on him." Sen. Joseph Biden: "I think he's dead, flat wrong." Sen. John Kerry: "None of us should be fooled."

7. Yep


If we truly believe that bushco is destroying this country then we must begin a fight to the end. If, however, you don't think bushco is that bad then you are willing to compromise and go along to get along.

Impeachment is the beginning of a fight to the end and those that profess a will to impeach are those who think bushco needs to be beaten back into the ground, as impeachment is the way to do just that.

However, if you are against impeachment then you must be one of those who don't think bushco is all that bad and should remain in power

People appreciate doing what must be done to get to the goal and is why they love the pubbies so much.... the pubbies let nothing get in their way of total domination

Dems on the other hand are doubted because we are not willing to do the hard work necessary to destroy bushco

Pubbies have dragged this country into an overseas war but Dems won't even lift a finger to begin the war to get rid of bushco

8. I agree
I want this nightmare to end with impeachment and the marching off to the Hague for those suspected to be responsible for this huge war crime and murder of many tens of thousands possibly million's of innocent people. We owe the dead, the innocent and Injured present and past as well as into the future no less.

we the people have the power to end this if only we find our voice

10. peace
I can be referred to as an ole bastard if one wants to and especially if they are for impeachment too. Our congress critters aren't going to do it unless we make them. now we go make congress critters that do their job which begins with doing the will of the citizens. ;-)

6. Ike Skelton said something along the lines of the general having the
strategy our country needed, but it comes years too late. And isn't working now.
