Baghdad Harry Just Keeps Fireing



REID FIRES BACK AT BUSH, GOP
MSNBC

Without acknowledging his comments yesterday when he said the “war is lost,” Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said President Bush and his allies “attacked those of us with courage to ask the tough questions and tell the truth about Iraq.”

He described their criticism of him and other Democrats as “an effort to shift attention from this Administration’s failed policies” in Iraq.
In a remarks on the Senate floor after Bush’s speech today, Reid did not repeat the “war is lost” comments.

Instead, he said that “the longer we continue down the president’s path the further we will be from responsibly ending this war.” He repeated the sentiment two additional times in the speech and added, “but there is still a chance to change course and we must change course.”

Reid also refuted the GOP claims following Reid’s controversial remarks yesterday that Democrats don’t support the troops and want to cut funding for them.

“We take a back seat to no one in supporting our troops,” Reid said. “And we will never abandon our troops in a time of war.”

Reid also said:

“The White House spin machine is working overtime in an effort defend its failed policies… I believe supporting our troops means giving them the funding they need and a strategy they deserve… It means stopping the partisan attacks and it means spending time working together in a bipartisan basis to develop an effective strategy to successfully end this war.”


Wild Thing’s comment……..
“attacked those of us with courage”
Courage!?!?
Reid is on a roll, call it a melt down or a loose cannon. But he is a TRAITOR and needs to be delt with as harshly as possible. If the Republican leaders do not step up to the plate on this one and let Reid have it full force, they might as well just say they are agreeing with Reid.
Reid is a traitor! He needs to be tried for treason and removed from office. He will be responsible for more American deaths because of his criminal remarks! It is OUR country too and OUR soldiers that are being denigrated by this sorry excuse for a Senator.
I called Reid’s offices in NV 775-686-5750 and 702-388-5020. I made it short and sweet: “I have comment for Reid. Do you want my name and phone #? ‘No’said the person. Sen. Reid is a Traitor to his country and is giving aid and comfort to our enemies and hurting our troops . Sen Reid is dispicable”.

Harry ‘Retreat’ Reid? General Betrayus?? Exit – Stage Left??? I loved Snagglepuss as a child!
We know how to look up the word’s ‘treason’ and ‘traitor’ in Webster’s Dictionary, but a lot of Dirty Harry’s constituents do not.

Lynn says:

Heartless Harry needs to remember that because of men and women of the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force and all the others, he has the FREEDOM to say such moronic things.
The man is obviously too old to do his job effectively and efficiently.
I’d love to see Fred Thompson win and just get into Harry’s face like a pitbull and just chew the crap out of him. Fred wouldn’t be afraid to do it either. He’d put those looney leftist liberals in their place.
I guess Harry’s mommy didn’t give him enough loving when he was a kid, so now he’s a heartless, coldhearted, nasty spirited old man. He makes Mr. Wilson from Dennis the Menace look kind.

Reid Must Resign

I stand by Mark Levine when he said:
For those … that they may not of heard it, this is what Reid said yesterday: “I believe … that this war is lost, and this surge is not accomplishing anything, as is shown by the extreme violence in…

BobF says:

Why do the people of Nevada elect a weasel like Reid? They can at least elect a real man, not some sniveling coward who uses his office to be a “big man”.

TomR says:

I had hardly heard of Reid prior to the last election. Has this new power gone to his head? His own party does not call for restraint on what he is saying, so I guess he is giving the democrap line. Scary! If the party roles were reversed the MSM would be all over this, calling for the Senator’s resignation.

Wild Thing says:

Darth, “Retreat Reid” is just what he is.
I don’t care if he says this every day, but do it in his house, say it to his family to his friends.
Not where the media or anyone can quote him, where it gets in the press,and itgets to our troops and to the enemy. That makes it aiding the enemy.

Wild Thing says:

Lynn, he is missing something for sure like you said. He has no heart for America none at all. How could he love America and say what he says, knowing our troops will hear it and take it to heart.

Wild Thing says:

Bob, I always thought Nevada was more Republican then Democrat. I guess I am wrong, their Gov. is or was a Rhino, they Mayor of Las Vegas is a Dem. and connected big time to the mob.

Wild Thing says:

Tom they sure would, let a Republcan say something, anything and it is analyzed to the max, taken apart over and over again.
