MY LETTER TO SENATOR JOE LIEBERMAN, (I - INDEPENDENT) CT

Dear Senator;

You ran and won re-election on an independent line because you lost the Democrat Party nomination in the primary to an "anti-war", MoveOn-type Leftist - Ned Lamont.

Your decision to run as an independent proves that you can put principle ahead of party affiliation.

And, your decision proves that you believe the War against Global Jihad - and the campaign in Iraq - is more important than party affiliation.

Nevertheless, after being sworn in for another term you decided to caucus with the Democrats. I understand this very well: I am a lifelong Democrat who first registered as a Democrat in 1974. Even though I voted for Bush in 2004, and now find that I have much more in common with the GOP platform than with the Democrat Party platform, I still haven't changed my party affiliation from Democrat to Independent or Republican. It doesn't really matter if I do or don't.

But it does matter who you caucus with.

The Senate Democrat Caucus is now entirely dominated by the same "anti-war", MoveOn-type crowd who turned on you before the last election; they turned on you despite the fact that you have been a stalwart liberal Democrat for decades, and the Vice Presidential candidate in 2000.

So... First of all, you owe this "anti-war" MoveOn-type crowd nothing. Second of all, your candidacy and election victory proves that you and your constituents believe that there are more important and valuable things about you than which party you caucus with.

Therefore, if you truly believe that the War we are now in is the most important issue, and if you believe that the current Senate Democrat Party leadership is undermining our efforts in this war, then you have a duty to stop caucusing with these Democrats, and start caucusing with the Senate GOP.

If you were to do this, then Senator Harry Reid and his comrades in the "anti-war" defeatist wing, which now controls the party, would be relegated to the minority of the Senate, and then they wouldn't be able to damage our efforts in the war.

Simply by caucusing with the Senate GOP, you can do more to aid the war effort - and help us to victory - than any Senator. Please do this.

Victory in the war is more important than which party you caucus with.

Your victory in the last election proves you are an independent Senator. Now act on it, and put the troops and our victory first.

Sincerely,

WHY HARRY REID MUST RESIGN, NOW!

HERE ARE THE DETAILS.

REID'S DANGEROUS AND ILLOGICAL TREACHERY

Reid - and the Leftist base he serves - say we've lost in Iraq. And that we should retreat. And thereby cede Iraq - a nation of 26 MILLION people in an area the size of California - to jihadoterrorists whose hideous ideology which not only condones but HAILS their only effective weapon: genocidal suicide bombers who target innocent civilians. And kidnappings and beheadings - (tactics easily replicated all over the world - as daily headlines prove!).

If we do what Reid and the Left want, then we'd be telling the enemy that this strategy works - at least on Dems and lefties - and we'd be ENCOURAGING them to use this strategy everywhere else.

THAT'S WHY WHAT REID AND THE LEFT SUGGEST WE DO IS DANGEROUS.

Reid and the Left also say that jihadoterrorism is not as big a threat as man-made global warming.

But if an organization can make the USA - the most powerful military force in the world - RETREAT, and then TAKE OVER a nation the size of Iraq with a population of 26 MILLION - (which they will do IF WE LET THEM!), then they are a very real threat - to nearly every nation in the former Caliphate - which are the primary targets, for the time being.

Reid's defeatism actually proves that jihadism is a a very real existential threat. It is self-contradictory and illogical for Reid and the Left to argue that global jihad is not the global threat the Bush Administration says it is, and then to argue that we have lost in Iraq and must retreat.

Iraq seems to me to be as good a place to defeat the jihadists as anywhere else.

And the sooner we do it the better. They can only become stronger over time.
