Well, At Least He's Honest A senior Democrat admits that the party is invested in defeat: Clyburn is the Majority Whip — No. 3 man in the House — and he said that if Gen. Petraeus has a positive report in September that would be “a real big problem for us” (Democrats). No further comment necessary.

I had heard that quote from him earlier today, what an idiot. Of course the rest of democrat leadership (along with a handful of RINOs) is no better with their general attitude of "it doesn't matter what Petraeus says I've made my mind up already". Posted by Cecil Trotter at July 31, 2007 12:06 PMTo Mr Clyburn's statement the only possible comment I can think of is "Duh". After all isn't "duh" the perfect comment to "DOH!"

Matt Yglesias attends in person: O'HanlonPosted by Bill White at July 31, 2007 02:09 PM Why the turnabout from the optimistic op-ed? Pressure from the publishers to not show successes? That would be my first guess. Posted by Mac at July 31, 2007 02:33 PMPressure from publishers led to "happy talk" in the NYT and a more pessimistic take when speaking to a panel of Congress-folk? That doesn't make sense, Mac. Posted by Bill White at July 31, 2007 03:31 PM> O'Hanlon backs down during Congressional testimony. Are there any actual quotes (with context) yet, or just Matt Yglesias's summary? Posted by Neil H. at July 31, 2007 04:03 PMI'm impressed that there is atleast one honest democrat in office.

I'm impressed that there is at least one honest democrat in office. That's unfair. I'm sure that a lot of them are honest. I'm also sure a balanced number of conservatives are not. Its not party affiliation that serves to render your morality. Posted by Mac at August 1, 2007 07:32 AMGetting BACK ON TOPIC...Go start your own blog Bill. If the Dem leadership can let something like that slip out, what really rabid thoughts would come from say Waters or Obay when the press isn't around? Hearing a member of our government say it's bad if we win is very disheartening. Would such a comment have gone unchallenged during the Korean War? I think not.
