I tend to agree with you about this.

The Democrats are not "trying to persuade". If they were trying to persuade they would do it through back channels. All they are doing here is undercutting Patreus's efforts which will make it less likely that he will succeed. If they really believed what Bush was doing was wrong they would cut funding. Instead they are making a public statement that has no other effect thant to undercut our moral and boost their moral.

"No effect"? So your world, the Democrats are both undermining national security and not smart enough to do it in a way that gets them political benefit. You're harsh.
