In regard to "speaking truth to power", here's the REAL thing

Just in case you missed it in the N&R this morning, here's the link.

(hat tip: Fred Gregory)

Excerpt:


"So Cheney was speaking a simple truth: Al-Qaeda wants the United States out of Iraq. And congressional calls to give up, regardless of conditions on the ground or what happens next in the wider war, validate that strategy."
but in this case Cheney is right. And he speaks from experience. He worked in the White House 32 years ago, for President Ford, when Southeast Asian allies were abandoned to their enemies. Millions were killed and displaced.

If that nightmare is replayed in Iraq, Pelosi and the anti-war powers will have to answer for the truths they've left unspoken."


There is no question about the truth of that last statement.

How much more clear can the case be made?

What part about what al Zawahiri wrote do these defeatists not understand?

Why would we purposely follow a policy that would result in a major setback against our plans to defeat terrorism?

Are we as a nation really that stupid?
