#3 Nah, youse guys got it all wrong! The Dems are part of the Rovian plan! They've already tricked Tater and his Tots to pull out because of the impending surge.

The smart guys leave - "He that fights and runs away, lives to fight another day."

The dumb guys get chopped up in the Baghdad meatgrinder. Iraq settles down, the Dems declare victory and the troops come home.

By the time Tater comes back, he'll be irrelevant, even in Iraq.

Genius, I tell ya!

#4 Quote from John Kerry, from his December 2003 speech before the Council on Foreign Relations:
"I fear that in the run-up to the 2004 election, the administration is considering what is tantamount to a cut-and-run strategy. Their sudden embrace of accelerated Iraqification and American troop withdrawal dates, without adequate stability, is an invitation to failure. The hard work of rebuilding Iraq must not be dictated by the schedule of the next American election.
I have called for the administration to transfer sovereignty, and they must transfer it to the Iraqi people as quickly as circumstances permit. But it would be a disaster and a disgraceful betrayal of principle to speed up the process simply to lay the groundwork for a politically expedient withdrawal of American troops. That could risk the hijacking of Iraq by terrorist groups and former Ba'athists."
The guy's a veritable fountainhead of integrity, ain't he?
From Powerline back last June.
