Agents of Change?

5 Comments

Not very accurate.

Invading and occupying a country is just a little bit different than the positions the Dem's took tonight. I am not a dem but I also don't think you should misrepresent them either.
They Supported Afghanistan type of position but not a Iraq type of position.
This is confirmed by how they said they would deal with Iran and Pakistan.

Agents of Change?

The Dems have diferentiated the Afghanistan and Iraqi situations. They approve of one, but not the other. But I think I heard Hillary say that we should have placed more troops in Afghanistan so that we could have captured Osama bin Laden before he escaped into Pakistan.

I was not impressed with their remarks about Iraq. Except for Hillary, they seemed to compete about who would get our troops out sooner. Hillary did seem to understand that withdrawl would not be a simple thing and that it would have repercussions that maybe could not be anticipated now.

What all of them were good at was second guessing George Bush.

Second Guessing

Second guessing is what the Dems are best at. The Dems have no solutions for anything only that they wouldn't do it Bush's way. McCain's criticisms of Bush at least come after McCain has already suggested another way of doing things. But I bet even McCain is not 100% on all of his suggestions either. Waging this new war against Jihad is something the United States has never done. We have no experience in it to fall back on and we are learning every day about what works and what does not. But who is to say that what Bush has done thus far in Iraq was not the best thing that could have been done? Another way may have been a worse disaster. All this second guessing is for losers.

Not Very Accurate?

The difference is that the Dems always say they will do things but they never do. It's talk, concession, and appeasement with the Dmes. When it comes time to actually doing something, they are AWOL and that is very accurate. Look at Clintons record.
