Are we winning in Iraq? Gates No Sir.

Confirmation hearings today. Wow!

Sen. Levin, "Do you believe are we currently winning in Iraq?"

Gates, "No Sir."


I see some broken "stuff" at the White House.

5. it's got to end
there's a willingness to admit by the administration it seems, to some extent, that th is is over it is a failed policy in my opinion, though of course they will have to put a positive spin on it... but what i come to in the end is all those young men and woman, the psychological wounds of war...and the family's that have and will continue to suffer for years to come... almost 3000 dead and counting.

6. Don't get too excited, he's already "clarified"
his statement. Playing semantics with peoples lives. Sounds like a perfect Bush nominee to me. You can check out Mr Gates' illustrious past here: http://www.fas.org/irp/offdocs/walsh/chap_16.htm
