Only 16% now think the terrorists are on top, while 27% view it as a stalemate. Prior to this week’s survey, the number who believe the terrorists are winning had never fallen below 20%.
Last July, just 36% thought the U.S. and its allies were winning. At that time, an equal number—36%–thought the terrorists were ahead … Only 23% now expect things to get worse in Iraq, down from 49% last July.
Appears those on the left may be losing their primary source of criticism. UH-OH. So when the polling was down he was a loser and wasn’t listening to the American Public. So I can only assume that now the left will pat him on the back and say good going, keep it up.
I AM WAITING LEFTIES!!!

Some of Washington’s best and brightest conservative writers can be found at The American Spectator, a daily online magazine (often mentioned by el Rushbo who frequently includes it in his “stack of stuff’) that features conservative perspectives and analyses on the day’s events and issues.
ON THE RADIO! Tonight at 9 ET we’ll be talking to two of these sharp political writers.
“Despite the dispirited state of the GOP, the ideological muddling of the McCain campaign, and the media accolades for Obama, it is far from a foregone conclusion that Hope and Change will triumph Nov. 4.”
“Obamamaniacs were thrilled by last month’s Newsweek poll showing their candidate ahead by 15 points. Alas for the apostles of Hope, either that poll was a statistical mirage or else the mass movement toward Obama quickly receded, and Newsweek reported last week that his lead is now an insignificant 3 percentage points.”
Eat. Ask. Watch. With GOP Convention Communications Director Matt Burns on Friday, June 27th at 12Noon Central. Seriously, you will be sitting at your desk, with your Starbucks and snack. Here are the deets:
Got any lunch plans? We’d love to get together and tell you about the preparations being made in advance of the 2008 GOP Convention, we are launching a weekly online conversation with convention staff called “Lunchtime Chats.”
With the help of Ustream.tv, the convention’s live video streaming provider, Lunchtime Chats will offer informal, interactive, and LIVE question and answer sessions with convention organizers. Get a behind-the-scenes look at the convention progress as senior staff members answer your questions LIVE from their desk at the convention headquarters in Saint Paul, Minn.
Back in 2004, when the Senate intelligence committee began investigating whether public statements by U.S. officials about Saddam Hussein’s pre-invasion Iraq were “substantiated” by existing intel, Republicans controlled Congress and the committee’s inquiry was aimed at figures on both sides of the aisle. The idea was to examine the fighting words of President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney as well as prominent Democrats including Al Gore, Sen. John Kerry and Sen. Hillary Clinton. But Democrats, who took over the panel after winning Senate control in 2006, decided that the final report would examine only statements by “policymakers”—in other words, the Bush administration. So in the report, due out this week, no Democratic comments will be parsed. That includes an Oct. 10, 2002, speech by Clinton in which she criticized Saddam’s WMD ambitions and accused him of giving “aid, comfort and sanctuary to terrorists, including Al Qaeda members.” (Continued…)
Among Conservatives the rumblings are constantly about how the Republican Party has left us, moving toward the left, using “Compassionate Conservatism” as an excuse to inject big government into the party. The Republican Party leadership is hardly conservative, and the current nomination for President of the United States, John McCain, is barely better than his two Democrat Party opponents.
The Republican Party has lost its way, and if it is not salvaged soon, the GOP will go the way of the Whigs.
A handbook for Republicans who feel in their heart that the basics of the Republican Party have been lost is on the bookshelves of bookstores today. Back to Basics for the Republican Party is a handbook for Republicans that explains how we need to return to our roots. The author of the book is Michael Zak.
Back to the Basics for the Republican Party is an acclaimed history of the Grand Ol’ Party from the civil rights perspective, as well as recognizing the founding principles of the United States. Michael Zak believes that we can benefit greatly from knowing and appreciating the Republican Party’s heritage.
Michael Zak is a popular speaker to Republican organizations around the country, and his book has been cited by Clarence Thomas in a Supreme Court decision. Hundreds of articles by Mr. Zak are available on the Grand Old Partison blog each day, celebrating 154 years of Republican heroes and heroics.

If the reports are true the SECDEF will be recommending a new position for the above Person of the Year ‘07 (in my eyes). General Petraeus may take the reigns at CENTCOM for the departing Admiral Fallon. Lt. General Odierno would fill Petraeus’s boots leading the fight in Iraq.
Also for those engaged in the “war over lies” debates, I only post these for you to reference. Are they nukes? No. WMDs yes.
Today at noon we’ll have the distinct pleasure of talking to Adam Bellow, VP and excecutive editor at Collins.
Adam Bellow joins us to talk about becoming a conservative, the history of the culture war as he experienced it and the changing environment for conservative publishing in the post-Bush era.
Adam is the author of In Praise of Nepotism, and has been the editor of books by conservative writes like The Bell Curve, David Brock’s The Real Anita Hill, and Dinesh D’Souza’s Illiberal Education. He is the son of Nobel Prize for Literature laureate Saul Bellow and a co-owner of The New Pamphleteers.
Please note the special time: The chat room will be open by 11:45AM, and the call-in number is 646 652-2639. Join us!
Thanks to Dave over at the AOL Political Machine. And to the folks at MyDD who posted this video. Folks on the Left, be they Obama or Clinton supporters, should know that like so many elections - the 2008 presidential sweepstakes will be about national security. Our country is still at war.
As long as the brave men and women of the US Armed Forces are fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan - our nation will remain on a war footing.
And for those of us who choose to face the harsh reality of the world we live in, rather than play ostrich with our national security… this video will serve as a clarion call to the Voting Booth.

I have a little post-script that bothers me… Pastor Wright refers to “Shanklin” instead of “Shanksville” - maybe he doesn’t remember, maybe he “misspoke” - but rest assured, the families of folks on United 93 know - along with millions of their fellow Americans.
