    the most important reality check

    Foreign policy and conduct of war are not the province of public plebiscites. The Constitution gives this power to the president alone, not to the voters. If Congress disagrees, its consitutional duty is to cut off funding. Period.

    But here's another reality check the chickenshit Reid needs to consider (as does perpetual whiner and chickenshit Tim Grieve), from someone who's there an knows what's really going on: A Marine on the front lines. I dare Reid and Grieve to go speak to this Marine face to face, man to man (okay, maybe not that last part), and tell him the war is lost.
