America is a Failure

I've listened how the democrats in Warshington have said Iraq is still a failure and we need to pull out. Inspite of their economy improving, terrorism and urban violence are both down dramatically, democrats still say the war is already lost. Even thought their police force is taking on more responsibilities and overall, the place is stabilizing, we need to pull out. Pelosi, Reid, O'bama, and Mrs. Clinton's benchmark for failure now is the parliament. According the them, the Iraqi legislature has not made enough progress.

Shoot. What about our own legislature? What have they done about addressing rising health care costs? Where are we on social security? How about a national energy policy? Are we any closer on these issue? Hell no. Therefore by this logic, America is a failure.

So what unemployment is low. The lack of another terrorist attack inside America is irrelevant. Low interest rates is also hog wash. By using democrats logic, their own inability to provide leadership is indicative of America being a failure. It's amazing that some of these same people want to be President of the United States.




Then again, having a do nothing impotent Congress might be one of our greatest short term asset.

    Sorry if I am trolling, but I found the irony of their logic to be most amusing, especially with Pelosi and Reid's approval ratings to be so low.

    The Dems have to say the war is going bad even when it isnt. Its their biggest talking point.

    The last thing they want is for us to win, then they will HAVE to shut up. They wont have anything to * about.

    Regardless of what party is on power, we as a country are failing. How can we help reconstruct a country and get them on their feet when we ourselves cannot or will not control our borders and those people who enter and leave it illegally? Just my .02.

    They are so INVESTED in failure that success will out them as the loser traitors they are.
    I get a kick out how the leftist media keeps pushing Hilairy when it appears the vast majority of Americans can't stand her.

    CPT P,

    Perhaps we should ask congress to establish a timeline for their withdrawl from DC. I for one think our political system needs an enema.

    But, alas, we have the elected respresentation that we have both asked for and deserve, no?

    NS

    Bobski: good point
