The US Reports that Al Qaeda is back, not as strong as it was but more of a threat than it has been since 9/11.

The Right Press on Iraq


Lets see what the intelligent Press is saying about the all night Senate Session.

The Daily Standard: A very interesting article that looks at the politics of the Republicans in the Senate and the failure view of the Democrats. In essence Iraq just might be turning around and thus the affect on the Republicans.

Democrats Failure on Iraq

As public stunts go it was as near to as a failure as you can get, in the end the Democrats could get no where near the sixty votes they needed to end debate on Iraq and go to a vote on the future. In raw numbers it was 52-47 to end debate, the Dem's needed 60. The Democrats would need well over 60 to overturn a Presidential Veto. What a big Yawn!! Do the Democrats get it, there is a war going on out there in Iraq.
