p> I read the article rather quickly by Jed Babbin. I failed to see any mention that Newt Gingrich thinks we should focus on the threat posed by Iran's nuclear capabilities rather than Iraq. br> -- James Beaty /p> p> You may want to spend some time finding out what Gingrich actually said rather than writing an article based on one out of context quote. br> -- Nicole Kitchin /p>

I haven't heard Newt say that Iraq is a failure. He has said that our initial battle was a success but that we have failed in the second phase. Thus we should come up with a plan for success in the third phase. At least that is what he has been saying on the news and at the politics & egg breakfast in New England. He also said we have no other choice than to succeed in Iraq.

p>Just curious as to when and what he said about failing in Iraq besides these times and places. br> -- Mark /p> p> Mr. Babbin: Rumsfeld '08. I have hated Kerry and the stinking spineless Americans for cutting and running from South Vietnam since it happened. I was right then, and I am right now. Rumsfeld is the only man I see with enough integrity to pick up the reins from President Bush. I have told you this before and more than likely, I will be telling you again. I was right about Kerry, Fonda and the cut and runners over 35 years ago. Wanna make book on Rumsfeld and the next 5 years? br>
