Harry Reid Should Step Down
Posted in Idiots, Morons, & Fools, United States Politics, World Politics at 2:08 pm by Joe April 20th, 2007In a world where Imus was fired from his radio show, Senator Trent Lott had to give up the Senate Majority Leader position, and where Senator John McCain is being lambasted by left-wingers for saying “Bomb Iran,” it is only right that Senator Harry Reid of Nevada apologize for his tyrannical comments and then step down from his position as Senate Majority Leader.
In case you haven’t heard, Senator Reid said that the war in Iraq was lost. His comments as reported by the Boston Globe were:
I believe myself that the secretary of state, secretary of defense, and — you have to make your own decisions as to what the president knows — [know] this war is lost and the surge is not accomplishing anything as indicated by the extreme violence in Iraq yesterday.
That’s disgusting and I find it highly offensive. To say that our men and women in Iraq are losers and that they are fighting a go-nowhere war is not only sanctimonious on the part of this rogue Senator, but it shows you the true heart of the far left people in this country.
Not only has the troop surge quelled the majority of the violence in Baghdad, but the troops already won the war when they accomplished their mission. And for those of you who either can’t or don’t want to remember what that very clear, very direct mission was back in 2003 - it was to depose Saddam Hussein’s government and find weapons of mass destruction.
Saddam is good and dead and hundreds of chemical weapons have been found in Iraq. In fact, the mission WAS accomplished. All of this bullshit that is going on now is the result of an overzealous military campaign led by a Commander in Chief whose eyes had a bigger appetite than his stomach.
But for the love of God, the war isn’t lost and for anyone - including Senator Reid - to say that it IS lost is disgusting. In fact, when there are troops that are fighting against “enemies,” these words are treason.
Harry Reid - step down.
