Aid and Comfort

"Don't blame us", the left cavils, "and our lies and context-deprived rantings about Iraq, and our candidates' demonstrable desire to wash their hands of the nation, for the recent surge in violence!".

Oh, I think I'll listen to those who do.

One of Cap's correspondents - a Marine in Iraq - reports:

I also wonder if Senator Kerry realizes that he is partially responsible for the recent upswing in violence. This, by the way, is not speculation... this is straight from one of my interpreter's mouth.

When Senator Kerry said that, if elected, he would pull us out of here in four years, the insurgent leadership had a rousing round of celebratory automatic weapons fire. The insurgents can easily hang out another four years, taking 10 casualties here, 3 there and they know it. And they know that a massive upswing in violence with resulting casualties will make President Bush look really bad and increase the Senator's chances of election.

Hey, who are you gonna believe - someone in country, or a giggly fratboy in DC writing a blog?
