		<description>[...] Encouraging Political Accommodation - Yup, the Bush administration has been doing that too. As a matter of fact, 15 of the 18 benchmarks set by Congress - not the Executive Branch - have been met. Of course, the main stream media won&#8217;t tell you about it, but Pajamas Media will.

		<description>I am a dem but I don&#039;t want our soldiers to die just to have my party win an election, that is an ignorant comment. I was against the invasion of a country unprovoked and wanted the US to focus on the terrorists in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran and everywhere else we could hunt them down and kill them. Now that we are committed I do not favor an immediate exodus from Iraq. I am pleased that conditions are much improved for our troops. Getting the troops out has to be handled responsibly depending on conditions on the ground at the time. I believe the war was mishandled early on and the &quot;no bid&quot; contracts gained by Haliburton should cause Dem or Rep to give pause.
Also, What happened to our number one enemy Osama bin Laden? Now &quot;W&quot; says it&#039;s not that important to find and kill him, that&#039;s BS.
As for Dems having complex thought patterns, are you referring to the complex thoughts of a president who cannot put a cogent sentence together? Give me a f----ing break. If my teenage son came home with the same grades &quot;W&quot; earned in school I&#039;d pull him out of sports, whip his ass and ground him for a semester.  The &quot;W&quot; record is in the books, record breaking bankruptcy filings, record breaking foreclosures, energy prices out of sight, failure on hurricane Katrina, screwed up the war until relieving Rumsfeld under pressure and changing strategy, no improvement on the health care crisis, no improvement on the illegal alien problem, and finally the horrible treatment of our brave military personnel when they return home with physical and psychological disabilities. Taking a position of being &quot;for the troops&quot; goes way beyond supporting the war.  Giving them the best care, re-training for employment, psychological treatment and any other assistance they need should be our countries priority without regard to party or politics.</description>

		<description>[...] A more detailed story provides more illumination on why Iraq&#8217;s success in meeting 15 of the 18 benchmarks somehow didn&#8217;t deserve coverage. They don&#8217;t want progress in Iraq. They don&#8217;t want you to know about the progress in Iraq. They want the American people to be mushrooms: they want you K.I.T.D.A.F.O.H.S. (Kept In The Dark And Fed On Horse you-know-what). [...]</description>

		<description>Has anyone besides me noticed that the great majority of the posts from the anti-war types, both here and elsewhere, read as if they were written by seventh-graders?  When confronted with facts that contradict their assertions, they invariably begin cursing and calling people names. 

I don&#039;t care for Ann Coulter, but she really nails it when she says &quot;Debating a liberal is like debating a 5-year old.&quot;</description>

		<description>&quot;I’ve been waiting for months to hear about a friend or associate of Obama’s who is not either corrupt, radical or a criminal.&quot;

My best advice is:  don&#039;t hold your breath while you&#039;re waiting.</description>
