"We are tired. We have faltered. We will fail."

"The president needs to spell out a real and understandable plan for the unfinished work aheadÂ… Most of all, we need an exit strategy so that we know what victory is and how we can get there; so that we know what we need to do and so that we know when the job is done."
So says Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid (D-Gambling and Legalized Prostitution) on CNN.com.

What Senator Reid won't tell you is why an an exit strategy deadline is important. Without a deadline, the liberal faithful might begin to feel that the continuing success in Iraq is a permanent change. Without a "cut and run" date, the terrorists in Iraq might think they have a chance if they can just outwait America.

Luckily, we are governed by a man with a spine, and this will not happen.

President Bush recognizes that an arbitrary withdrawal date (what the liberals really mean by "exit strategy") does nothing for the United States or our Iraqi allies, and only serves to bolster the morale of terrorists and liberals. I can only assume that bolstering the morale of the terrorists is just an unintended side effect of Democratic gamesmanship, though it is becoming increasingly obvious that liberals hate the Bush Administration more than terrorist tyranny, and are willing to go against their own country's best interests in their desperate partisan thrust for relevance.

Reid shows the true soul of the Democratic Party, in effect saying, "We are tired. We have faltered. We will fail."

The nauseous downward spiral continues.

Update: A big "thank you" goes out to one of my favorite journalists, Michelle Malkin, for picking up this thread in her "Quote of the Day" update.
