Pelosi Peril
Must-read editorial in today's NY Post (h/t: HNAV):
Is history to repeat on the Democrats' watch? And how typical of the party to threaten to cut the legs out from under the U.S. military effort.
It's what it did in Vietnam more than 30 years ago:
* First, the Democratic-controlled Congress voted to end all U.S. military activities there by a set deadline.
* Then it cut off all military funding to South Vietnam.
Emboldened by these moves, North Vietnam invaded the South; President Gerald Ford pleaded for an emergency infusion of military and humanitarian aid, but Democrats voted it down.
Weeks later, Saigon fell, the agony of the Boat People began - and Cambodia's Pol Pot, waiting in the wings, made his move.
Now Pelosi & Co. are flirting with a repeat of that kind of disaster.
They maintain that the only avenue open to the United States in Iraq is a political solution - once that's reached, they claim, internal security will follow.
In fact, the truth is just the opposite.
As Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) notes on the opposite page, "security is the precondition for political progress and economic development."
Will that guarantee peace? No. But as Sen. Joe Lieberman (D-Conn.) added: "Our troops believe they can win, and that's important."
The Democrats are so busy running away from a war they initially approved that they're willing - even eager, perhaps - to facilitate an American defeat.

they could care less about anything, except their greed for power.
undermine a fight for Democracy?
of those formerly oppressed?
to change the Arab Region drowning in radical militancy?
no problem for Democrats...
