Phil Carter has some recommendations for a new approach in Iraq.

There is nothing wrong with our strategy in Iraq. Everything is going fine. The only people who do not believe this are cut and run Democrats. Nobody in the mainstream media reports on all the good things happening in Iraq, like the fact that the electricity in Baghdad is now on for at least 12 hours a day. All they focus on is the beheadings, the executions, the bombings, and the fact that at least 100 civilians are dying everyday in what they call "violence."

These suggestions may be our best remaining hope to salvage the situation in Iraq. Yet can we implement this strategy without a greater deployment of troops?

To read Simberg, the only problem in Iraq is
the Democrats and the Media, after all,
FDR was beset by terrible quagmires in
his horrible unprovoked war on Germany,
and the misguided war on Fascism, was a
disaster for the American People.

Anon acts like there weren't people back then who believed exactly that.

Lefties would have started the war if the polls had said it would have been popular. If we could have polls that make the work in Iraq popular to our people, the lefties would be right there claiming responsibility and showing how they were in support the whole time.

"And what is true of the leaders is even more true of the rank and file of the movement. The relative ease with which a young communist could be converted into a Nazi or vice versa was generally known in Germany, best of all to the propagandists of the two parties. Many a university teacher during the 1930's has seen English and American students return from the Continent uncertain whether they were communists or Nazis and certain only that they hated Western liberal civilization." -- F.A.
