Quote of the Day

Former Arkansas Governor Mike '08 Huckabee justifying his support for a military escalation in Iraq.

"I think we have to give the commander-in-chief an opportunity to make this succeed…I think we have to give him a chance to succeed."

The American people have given President Bush and this Republican Party four long years to succeed.

David Sirota:

These moves to simply pretend the last four years haven't actually happened are an effort to build some sort of sympathy not for our troops, but for President Bush. We're expected to believe this ridiculous sob story that a war lasting longer than World War II didn't give him enough time or an adequate "chance" to get the job done.

Indeed.
