Dead Soldiers for Political Gain is Murder

What chaps my hide worse about the Democrats is that they are pulling so hard for the U.S. to fail in Iraq. It's thinly disguised in everything they say or do.

They have zero ideas on how to solve any problem whatsoever, and thus see a loss in Iraq as the only way to win. This intellectual bankruptcy means they must do everything to make sure we lose.

And that means embolding the enemy, destroying the morale of our troops -- and in the end, a lot more dead soldiers.

Pulling for a military defeat in Iraq simply for the sake of political gain is immoral. It is pre-meditated murder. The same could be said of George Bush who foolishly rushed us into a "wag the dog" war that serves as a substitute for his own lack of vision.

As president, I would not have gotten us into this mess, but now that we're there, we need to succeed.
