So says senate majority leader Harry Reid.
I'm not sure who "they" are. Millions of Iraqi's risked their lives to vote in elections, proudly displaying their purple fingers and now we have Iraqi Sunni and Shiite tribal leaders banding together to help us fight al-Qaida.

It doesnt matter what the truth is because they dont care, it doesnt help them politically, and they are not anti-war they are anti-Bush. Iraq has nothing to do with Iraq.
I am a little surprised that you don't have a problem with the US arming the Sunni insurgents, people who were killing our soldiers not too long ago. But then I predicted 2 years ago that we would switch sides in Iraq.
Focusing on al Qaeda is a good sign though, I will admit. True, al Qaeda wasn't in Iraq before we invaded, and some of us advocated focusing narrowly on al Qaeda since 9/11.
Well gary, i don't see where it says we're arming sunni insurgents anywhere in that article, but maybe you know something i don't.
Also, as i've said before there were many who were against invading iraq before we went in; including the donkey, the difference of course is that once we got in there he got behind the mission 100% whereas our "leaders" in the dem party have been rooting for defeat since the start.
questioning the pretext or stated reasons for our going there in the first place is quite different from "rooting for defeat" ... your assasination of the patriotism of everyone who disagrees with you is getting a little old as a tactic of argumentation. although, it does prove that you are, indeed, a student of the Coulter School of debate.
Anita, i don't know if you have a guilty conscience, but i didn't say anything about "everyone" who disagrees with me, in fact i have said repeatedly that donkey and i disagreed from the beginning and still do to this day.
I did however say that the leaders of the dem party have been rooting for defeat, because they have. It is not politically helpfull to them if we are successful in iraq and in fact the better things get, the worse it is for them.
As far as your comparison of me to ann coulter...Thank you. I don't think i'm worthy but i appreciate the sentiment.
Anita you are trying to argue whats in your heart and we are criticising what is in dem policies. I dont doubt that your motives are sincere but have even less doubt that the dems are full of shit.
With a straight face you couldnt tell me that the dems are the anti-war party. If polling shifted tommorow in favor of a continued surge the dems would claim they proposed it yesterday.
So...
How can we not doubt the patriotism of a party whose entire party campaign platform and success rests on our Country's failure.
I am much more critical of the GOP then you could even imagine but to to look at our military misfortunes and setbacks as an opportunistic powergrab as the Democrat Party are doing is quite frankly sickening and yes... traitorous.
...but I'm too critical, the dems did afterall hold a slumber party.
That we are now arming Sunni insurgents has been widely reported in the media. One quick link:
http://rawstory.com/news/2007/US_confirms_it_arming_Sunni_insurgents_0610.html
Of course they will use the weapons we provide only against al Qaeda and not against us or against the Shiites. Maybe.
"widely reported"
and then you link rawstory.com?
Interesting.
But thats neither here nor there, if our last President thought it was smart foreign policy to aid moslem terrorists fighting Christians then its got to be even smarter to fund moslem terrorists fighting moslem terrorists.
If the Bush administration is doing something "smart" then it is the first time.
