Quote Of The Day
When asked why Barack Obama won’t admit that The Surge has succeeded, and his initial prediction was wrong…
You know, I suppose he could, but the bottom line is that Americans don’t care. I mean, when 60% of Americans say the war should not have been fought to begin with, it’s sort of like saying, you know what, you know that last-place baseball game the other night? Maybe the Giants should have pitched the fellow — you know, people don’t care. If they don’t believe the war should have been fought, then what’s happening right now, whether the surge is successful or not, is really sort of secondary.
— David Schuster, MSNBC reporter, Morning Joe, 7/22/08
I’m not sure what Shuster meant and how the San Francisco Giants are related to The Surge. Then again, if he believes he can speak for the American people and cite a poll percentage that’s probably years old, maybe he doesn’t know much either.
