dingy harry reid won the war. all of that hysterical cheerleading that he was doing against the war was our imagination:
But it needed a change in direction. Petraeus brought that about. He brought it about--the surge helped, of course it helped. But in addition to that, the urging of me and other people in Congress and the country dictated a change, and that took place. So...
this is not a small detail, but if the surge did
not work, then the original bush war plan
did work. it only stands to reason.
either way, reid, pelosi and obama were wrong, and to the extent that they deny being wrong today, they are liars.
