At What Point Do You Just Run Out Of Breath?

I read the comment below over at ButtsForBush, and my jaw dropped. The only solace I have, for the time being, is that the majority of Americans have been changing their opinions in the past six months. These card-carrying right wing, Republican kooks are preaching to a much smaller choir, and the more their statements are at odds with reality, the more the Republican party stands to loose.

But in the real adult world, the economy is red-hot, not mired in joblessness or relegating millions to poverty. Unemployment is low, so are interest rates. Growth is high, as is consumer spending and confidence...The military isn’t broken. Unlike after Vietnam when the Russians, Iranians, Cambodians, and Nicaraguans all soon tried to press their luck at our expense, most of our adversaries don’t believe the U.S. military is losing in Iraq, much less that it is wise now to take it on. Instead, the general impression is that our veteran and battle-hardened forces are even more lethal than was true of the 1990s — and engaging successfully in an almost impossible war.
