We may be 'dispirited,' Ari, but we will not go down in November without a fight
Ari Fleischer on CNN last night talking bout how the Democrats would be even more 'dispirited' if President Obama gave George Bush credit for the 'surge.'

And on your TV sets, you’ll frequently see Ari Fleischer — the prominent pre-war mouthpiece who said Iraq would “shoulder much of the burden” for reconstruction, who said the Iraqis would “rejoice,” and who claimed that there was no chance “of losing the peace.” On both CNN and MSNBC over the last 24 hours, Fleischer has bemoaned that Bush isn’t being given enough credit for ending the war in Iraq. Watch it:

1. There would have been no need for a surge if Bush had sent in enough troops in the first place.

It was a blatant admission that he was wrong to fire the guy who said he'd need twice as many, which is why he had to give it a fancy new name.

And we're definitely not going down in November--that's just a meme you're trying to get the MSM to implant in our heads in hope of getting Dem voters to stay home.

2. As Dubya might say, 'Fool me once...don't get fooled again' by putting Republicans back in power!
