Time to Take a Stand (Democrats!) « Thread Started on Sept 7, 2007, 11:30pm » --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Time to Take a Stand (Democrats!) By PAUL KRUGMANread at source> http://guerillawomentn.blogspot.com/200 ... s.htmlHere’s what will definitely happen when Gen. David Petraeus testifies before Congress next week: he’ll assert that the surge has reduced violence in Iraq — as long as you don’t count Sunnis killed by Sunnis, Shiites killed by Shiites, Iraqis killed by car bombs and people shot in the front of the head.Here’s what I’m afraid will happen: Democrats will look at Gen. Petraeus’s uniform and medals and fall into their usual cringe. They won’t ask hard questions out of fear that someone might accuse them of attacking the military. After the testimony, they’ll desperately try to get Republicans to agree to a resolution that politely asks President Bush to maybe, possibly, withdraw some troops, if he feels like it. . .
