ENSURING DEFEAT

It's not bad enough that the peace-at-any-price Democrats want to deliver a date certain for our surrender to the the insurgents in Iraq. And it's evidently not smarmy enough just to set a surrender date, but the Democrats bought votes for their surrender bill by adding pork spending to their legislation to attract recalcitrant votes. What an insult it is to our armed forces to add a bail out to spinach farmers to a bill funding their operations in Iraq.

Well ... it looks like Bush may actually deliver on his promise to veto the Democrat's surrender legislation, so Harry Reid wants to up the ante, along, of course, with the eager help of John Kerry and Russ Feingold. The next step is to pass a bill just simply cutting off funding for our troops. Just force the commander in chief to bring them home because he no longer has the funds to continue operations.

There are so many things wrong with the actions of the Democrat Party on so many levels. Showing weakness to our Islamic fascist enemies is one thing. There will be a price to be paid for this ... possibly a horrible price. Never fear, though. When the Islamic fascist terrorist move to take advantage of our weakness the Democrats, with the eager help of the media, will sidestep any responsibility by simply blaming Bush.

We're not the only ones being target by the Islamic terrorists. Although Shiites comprise a minority of Muslims, they're a strong majority in Iraq. If the United States leaves before the Iraqi government is stabilized and the Shiites and Sunnis have come to an accommodation to life together in peace, there will in all probability be a Sunni bloodbath --- followed by Iraq becoming the center of Islamic terrorism.

The constant leftist Democrat drumbeat of criticism against Bush and the Iraqi front on the war against Islamic fascism has worked. Americans no longer recognize the threat we face. It's been over five years since 9/11 .. and most Americans now view terrorism as a law enforcement problem.

We are going to pay a price .. and it will be a horrible one. The question is whether or not we will be able to respond ... even, and it's no certainty, if the American people even want to. When Islamic terrorists strike American again we might just have to sit back and take it without any military response. After all ... if we go after the Islamic terrorists we may kill women, children and innocent civilians. We can't have that, can we? America must surrender to the Islamic jihad if to fight means that innocent civilians might die!
