Al-Qaeda's Just Wild About Harry!
I'm just wild about Harry
And Harry's wild about me
The heavenly blisses of his kisses
Fill me with ecstasy
He's sweet just like chocolate candy
And just like honey from the bee
Oh I'm just wild about Harry
And he's just wild about, cannot do without
He's just wild about me!

When Eubie Blake and Noble Sissle wrote that song in 1921, they had no way of knowing that 86 years later their jaunty tune would reflect the warm-and-fuzzy, symbiotic relationship between the once-great Democratic Party and America's wartime Islamist enemies.

Just days after he declared that America's war on terrorists in Iraq "is lost," Senate Democrat leader Harry Reid lined up 51 votes to pass a bill which would force the president to begin surrendering to Islamists terrorists in October. The bill was approved earlier by the Democrat-controlled House and is disguised as a war appropriation measure. In reality, the bill is an instrument of surrender; it's loaded with pork, providing billions in domestic handouts to spinach farmers and other special interests and, by the way, requiring President Bush to begin withdrawing all American troops from Iraq this fall.

This is how Democrats fight a war: they tell the enemy when we're going to quit.

And the al-Qaeda jihadists in Iraq appreciate Harry Reid's courtesy! Little Green Footballs notes this message from the so-called "Islamic State in Iraq" posted on a pro-terrorist website:

It is apparent to every watchful eye that recent events over the past few days have exposed a huge crack in America’s administration. With weak declarations from their leaders about events on the ground in Iraq just two months after the so-called “Baghdad security plan” commenced and a growing dispute about funds spent on the Iraq and Afghan wars, the American command has now said “The current security plan is the last chance for the American army and the Maliki government”.

As usual, this was followed by a swift visit by the new (American) Defense Minister “Gates” who said, “The American support to the Maliki government is not unlimited”, insinuating that the American administration is impatient with the Maliki government that is incapable of handling the strikes of the Mujahideen. This comes on the heels of an important statement by House Majority Leader Harry Reid who previously said, “The Iraqi war is hopeless and the situation in Iraq is same as it was in Vietnam.”

Then came Bush’s stupid statement where he emphasized that his strategic goal in Iraq is more than a military victory but also to prevent the Mujahideen from benefiting from the fruits of the Jihad to ultimately achieve victory.

Terrorists are indeed just wild about Harry!

A question for those Americans who voted Democrats into the congressional majority: does it bother you that Islamist terrorists who are determined to kill you wholeheartedly agree with Harry Reid and the Democrats?
