Really?




Vice President Dick Cheney on Friday pointed to the fighting between Israel and Hezbollah as fresh evidence of the ongoing battle against terrorism that underscores the need to keep President Bush's Republican allies in control of Congress.

"This conflict is a long way from over," Cheney said at a fundraising appearance for a GOP congressional candidate. "It's going to be a battle that will last for a very long time. It is absolutely essential that we stay the course." -- AP

Really?

Of course, I don't doubt he said it, he's been saying it for years. But ... really? Could this really be a good reason to return Republicans to the House and in a few years to the Senate and the White House?

One war after another, the mideast in flames and -- well, the water is running red in Qana, but that's not because anyone is changing it into wine.

(Yes, it's that Cana)

Return Republicans to Congress, stay the course ...

Do you really think we should?
