The American Spectator

TAS ‘s finest writers, Jed Babbin, has nailed it! His revelations are nothing less than stunning, but they should only be stunning to those liars like John Murtha who have proclaimed that we have lost, or are losing, the war in Iraq. Those of us that shun the mainstream media know better. But it’s delightful to see information like that provided by Mr. Babbin in print. It counteracts the garbage trotted out constantly by the Dummycrats, particularly that doddering old fool, Murtha, a former Marine who should know better. Spare me the baloney that Murtha is a war hero, won this medal and that one, ya-de-ya-de-yah. Between his slide into senility and pushing the Party line, he receives no respect from me. br> — James J. Bjaloncik br> Stow, Ohio /p>

With all due respect to John Murtha because Mr. Murtha is indeed a genuine American hero, the only thing broken here is the Democratic Party. The party is in desperation mode and all they have left in their arsenal to fight is to do whatever they can to cause the U.S. to lose the war on terror (in particular in Iraq), thus neutralizing President Bush.

Take a good hard look at some of what the Democratic Party of today has to offer. What elixir do they have to offer the hard working, tax paying folks in this country? Well folks, here is the snake oil, magic elixir that the Democrats so desperately want us all to swallow.
