A President

The Boston Globe: A interesting article that looks at the powerful groups within the Republican and Democratic Party, and when and when not a Candidate can stand up to them. This comes off attack on General Petraeus by MoveON.org the Liberal pressure group. The Democrats need them and their money, that is pure politics and reality.

Meet the Press

Just saw Senator John McCain on Meet the Press, very good performance, shows why he would be a great President, a realist when it comes to Iraq but also kept his eye on the Democrats to show that when it comes to National Security that they are weak, McCain has learned the lessons of the Vietnam War, while the Democratic Opposition think their opposition to the war was a highlight in their history.

13/0/07

Last night the President in his speech stated the following highlights on the policy of the United States in Iraq " our success in meeting these objectives now allows us to begin bringing some of our troops home. " Although the government of Iraq has been slow it has achieved the following, " Iraq's national leaders are getting some things done. For example, they have passed a budget. They're sharing oil revenues with the provinces. They're allowing former Baathists to rejoin Iraq's military or receive government pensions. Local reconciliation is taking place. The key now is to link this progress in the provinces to progress in Baghdad. As local politics change, so will national politics. " The success in Iraq allows for more troops to come home as stated in a report to Congress, " Now, because of the measure of success we are seeing in Iraq, we can begin seeing troops come home. The way forward I have described tonight makes it possible, for the first time in years, for people who have been on opposite sides of this difficult debate to come together." The policy in Iraq with follow the pattern of after World War Two and the Korean War, when American Troops have bases in these countries. Failure would benefit Iran and terrorists in the region. In the end the President is still convinced that he can win when it comes to Iraq.

Beltway Truth

The Washington Post: The post has the truth about Iraq, it writes, " the surge has done what the administration needed it to do. " The Democrats don't have the votes from the Republicans to end the war. At least the Post will speak reality to Democrats.

Left and Iraq

The New York Times: The Editorial from the Times shows why the once great paper of record should be seen as it is, an extreme left wing paper, that the old USSR used to be produced. They are not interested in success in Iraq, they need failure if they are wrong about this why bother reading the Paper. NYT writes " ....American leaders would start looking at serious alternative strategies — like the early, prudent withdrawal of troops that we favor. " HENCE FORTH PEOPLE DONT READ THE NYT FOR THE FACTS ABOUT IRAQ THEY HAVE A LEFT WING AGENDA.
