So is it true? Baghdad Bob ran around telling how the Americans would loose and they were no where near the BIA Airport. So now the Senate Majority leader is doing the same?
Since I'm not in politics, I can probably say this but Sen. Reid is sort of a pipsqueak pris. If we were caught up in a riot somewhere I would not hand the distinguished Senator a firearm, he would shoot me or himself, not the crazies roaming 'round.

Reid compared to Aziz [W. Thomas Smith Jr.]
Just got off the phone with a U.S. Naval officer in Baghdad, who tells me his fellow officers in Iraq are saying Sen. Harry Reid reminds them of Saddam's deputy prime minister Tariq Aziz.

Remember him — The U.S. Central Command's 'eight of spades' in the 'Iraq's most-wanted' card deck?
.
As U.S. and coalition forces in Kuwait began surging toward the Iraqi border in March 2003, Aziz desperately proclaimed Saddam's army was "certain of victory," and American soldiers "will be defeated."
.
Last week, as Gen. David Petraeus's new and ongoing "surge" continued to expand in Iraq, Reid desperately proclaimed the Iraq War "is lost."
