Since leaving office former President George W. Bush has behaved in a way that brings honor to him, his family, his office, and his country. No, seriously.

Writes Reid: “After the briefing, Gibbs went to the president for clarification. Gibbs then called me to his office to relate what the president said. The president told him it IS locked in — there is no flexibility. Troops WILL start coming home in July 2011. Period. It’s etched in stone. Gibbs said he even had the chisel.”

I am a liberal. But I am not a pacifist. To quote President Obama, I do not oppose all war, just stupid wars of choice that are not in America's…

Chris Matthews, the supposedly liberal blowhard host of Harball on the Fox News of the Left, MSNBC, thinks that a military school like West Point is "enemy" territory to a Democratic President. That is a lie straight from the right wing, created I suppose because Democratic Presidents are not as wild about war and death as their Republican counterparts. Or I suppose it is a left over idea that all Democrats are unpatriotic traitors and thus any military institution would be enemy territory.
