Unfit For Command

The timorous Democrats insist on demonstrating daily why they are not fit to be handed the reigns of national defense nor foreign policy. Yesterday House minority leader Nancy Pelosi followed President Bush's Churchillian call for resolve in Iraq by urging the abandonment and betrayal of the people of that tragic land with all deliberate speed:

"We should follow the lead of Congressman John Murtha, who has put forth a plan to make America safer, to make our military stronger, and to make Iraq more stable. That is what the American people and our troops deserve."

What Congressman Murtha has called for is to just up and leave Iraq. Ms Pelosi thinks that's a good idea. And to think that if the Democrats recapture the House of Representatives in 2006 she'll be Speaker of the House. Heaven help us.
