Reid Claims ‘War is Lost’ Comment Helped Turn Effort Toward Victory

Big Peace "Asked about his 2007 comment in which he proclaimed “This war is lost” while our soldiers were still in Iraq getting their heads shot at and before the so-called “surge” even had begun, Reid today said that his statement was actually a “successful” ploy to force President Bush to refocus on political reconciliation.
"The undeniable fact is Sen. Reid called it wrong on Iraq. He undercut our troops in the process. Bush called it right. The “surge” worked and it (not Sen. Reid’s “This war is lost” statement) made today possible. That’s the unvarnished truth and no amount of revisionist sophistry will change it."

That's Harry. Remember how he tried to take advantage of this "Phony soldiers" kerfuffle with Rush Limbaugh .
