Asking all the right questions!! Woot!

He (Leherer) just brought up the Viet-Iraq analogy and how the polls show
that public support for the war gets lower in the polls daily.

Interview ongoing....I think they're taking the whole hour!!! (They did!)

Now he's quoting Patreaus's words from a book Patreaus wrote about Vietnam?
Throwing his words in his face, so to speak. :P

WTF?

Patreaus just said that what happens in Iraq will be a "national decision" (USA) ... HUH????

NOW PATREAUS IS SAYING IF WE LEAVE EARLY IT COULD HAVE DIRE CONSEQUENCES FOR AMERICA!!!

Didn't he say yesterday that he DIDN'T KNOW IF AMERICA WAS OR IS ANY SAFER???

:argh:
