No victory...

... for the U.S. in Iraq. Today CNN reports on its website (CNN: Poll: Less than half of Americans think U.S. can win in Iraq): “Less than half of Americans believe the United States can win the war in Iraq. The results mark the first time since the war began four years ago that a majority did not say the United States can win.”

Finally, the obvious becomes clear to almost everybody, except of course George W. Well, he still has the company of 29% of Americans who are convinced things are going well in Iraq. Yeah..., anyway, that's an "all-time low"... Perhaps the gringos are moving in the right direction... Nearly six in ten want to see U.S. troops leave Iraq, immediately or within a year. And a majority wants Congress to run the war instead of Bush, bye-bye Commander-in-Chief...

And the Democrats, they also still don't get it. They should ask the question Lenin asked himself in the beginning of the 20th century: What to do? And the answer is clear: get the U.S. aggressor troops out of Iraq, shut down all funding for the war or to sum it all up: Gringo, get out! But the Democrats are not doing anything remotely appropriate to solve the problem. They even didn't block Bush's perceived authority to launch an aggressive war against Iran. They want to get the votes of the peace camp, but are doing nothing to earn them.

"Somehow this madness must cease, we must stop now", Martin Luther King Jr. said 40 years ago.

To get any decent voice coming out of the U.S. these days, one has to turn to the website of the Revolutionary Communist Party of the United States of America. Thanks [fill in the blank] there are still some Americans who know right from wrong...
