Along with power comes problems
You've probably already seen this already. Sometimes it takes a quote like this to point our how lame the Dems have been.

"It's extremely difficult to govern when you control all three branches of government," says Hastert spokesman John Feehery, a burden of which Democrats would happily relieve them. Feehery and other Hill Republicans say that intraparty tension will inevitably bubble up amid adversity. But many political analysts say the recent infighting exceeds the usual steam-letting

Your President laid out his Iraq strategy (better know as same plan restated) again last night

There are five steps in our plan to help Iraq achieve democracy and freedom. We will hand over authority to a sovereign Iraqi government, help establish security, continue rebuilding Iraq's infrastructure, encourage more international support, and move toward a national election that will bring forward new leaders empowered by the Iraqi people.

There's nothing new here. This has been the plan all along. They can't get it done. Why not? I don't want to get into one of my usual rants here about whether the chaos was planned or not. All I want to say is this: If you current plan isn't working you need to change it. There is no change here. He laid out these five steps but without changing the way to go about it nothing will change. His big announcement was that he is going to tear down the prison, the name of which he could not pronounce, like it was the building and not the people involved, form top down, that were responsible. So it looks like the strategy is if you keep saying the same thing, over and over again, sooner or later the sheeple will come to believe it.
