Teddy Removes all Doubt

"It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt" - Ted Kennedy's handlers should share these words of wisdom with their boss...

Ted Kennedy calls for "US withdrawal from Iraq" along with many other ridiculous claims he compares Iraq with Vietnam. This is inaccurate on so many levels the least of which is the fact that unlike the communist we fought in Vietnam the Iraqi Insurgents have no military, no political goals, and not ideology, just to name a few differences. We could compare casualty percentages from both sides of the wars and demonstrate further differences. Further, we can point to the fact that there will be elections held this week in Iraq, free elections, this alone should demonstrate how ludicrous such comparisons are, but within the ranks of the "old liberal" wing of the democratic party statements like these are gospel - and this should prove to anyone these Democrats will not change!

Kennedy went on to say "the US Military presence has become part of the problem" - how must parents of those injured or killed must fell to hear this. The impact this statement may have on military moral makes it borderline treasonous. To be against the war is one thing, but to say that our military has accomplished nothing or is "part of the problem" diminishes their sacrifice and is an attempt to undermine moral in an effort to gain political advantage. Americans both for and against the war should be sickened by what this "leader?" of one of our political parties has said.

Kennedy's statements further demonstrate leftwing loonies' unwillingness to work together to unite the country and in fact shows their determinations to divide the country. These comments demonstrate how the "leftwing loonies" want Iraq to be like Vietnam, ushering more division so they can gain political power while totally disregarding the negative impact this will have on our country, our military, and our people in general. I am repulsed!
