Fallacies abound:

First, if Dick Clarke gets the blame for 9/11, then so does bush and the whole rat pack.

Second, AQI didn't exist until 2004.

That pretty much says as much as anybody needs to know: the war has proliferated terrorism.

I agree with him. I thought it was pretty common knowledge at this point that Al Qaeda benefits hugely from the war in Iraq. So far we've given them propaganda, practical cause, and often outright material and funds with which to fight.

Iraq is one big sucker-maneuver. The most famous sucker-maneuver in America, I think, is what Sitting Bull did to Custer at Little Bighorn. You know how that one worked, right? Iraq is like that.

With the success in Iraq stability in Iraq has ramped up and US troops have and are being withdrawn in timely manner that facilitates that success.

In a strikingly upbeat assessment, the CIA chief cited major gains against al-Qaeda's allies in the Middle East and an increasingly successful campaign to destabilize the group's core leadership.

While cautioning that al-Qaeda remains a serious threat, Hayden said Osama bin Laden is losing the battle for hearts and minds in the Islamic world and has largely forfeited his ability to exploit the Iraq war to recruit adherents. Two years ago, a CIA study concluded that the U.S.-led war had become a propaganda and marketing bonanza for al-Qaeda, generating cash donations and legions of volunteers.

We won, and you have lost.

Better luck next war!

You have been counting your defeat chickens when they never hatch... again.

Never bet against America. That's the flaw of the left.

I've never said we're "defeated."

Unlike you, I don't declare victory every few months, either.

Your candidate did, and he said last year that he would have surrended by March 31st 2008.
