The GOP's cheerful viciousness

Yet again, the GOP launches brutal personality and cultural attacks on the Democratic candidate. Yet again, Democrats seem determined to allow it to do so.

    Obama: Surge Succeeded Beyond ‘Wildest Dreams’

    Now that obama has conceded that the surge has been successful, I want to remind the salonista faithfull that your man apparently doesn't agree with many of you (link below)

    I recall several months ago, salonistas claiming that the surge had failed. Some salonoids didn't claim failure, they just moved the goalposts or changed some vocabulary, in an effort to save face.

    Prior to the claim that the surge had failed, I remember liberals declaring that;

    1) Iraq would not hold elections.

    2) Iraq would not form a constitution.

    3) "This war is lost and cannot be won" - harry (the dunce) reid

    4) General Patreus had "betrayed us"...many of you thought that slanderous ad from moveon.org was justified.

    So let me guess, your next proclamation regarding what is going to happen, and how we should respond to it, will be correct.

    The surge worked? Yes to FISA? . . . ouch.
