Victory for the USA is "Bad news for us".
From Flopping Aces:
House Majority Whip James Clyburn (D-S.C.) said Monday that a strongly positive report on progress on Iraq by Army Gen. David Petraeus likely would split Democrats in the House and impede his party's efforts to press for a timetable to end the war.
Clyburn, in an interview with the washingtonpost.com video program PostTalk, admitted the Democrats will be unhappy if it turns out that America is winning in Iraq. He did include some gobbledygook about supporting or troops, but nobody believes that. The big story is that a house leader put it on the record that it is not Democrat policy to win the war.
The Democrats have positioned themselves (again) to gain power if the US loses the war. This puts them actively opposed to the troops they mildly claim to "support". With friends like this, I hope to never be in a position to need support from Democrats.
Pardon me, but isn't supporting the enemy against our troops an act of treason?
