The simple truth is that Reid didn't say just that, he also said...
"The (Iraq) war can only be won diplomatically, politically and economically, and the president needs to come to that realization," Reid said.
Reid said he did not think more U.S. troops could help. "I think (the President's Surge has) failed, I say that without any question," he said of the troop increase.
So the more accurate question would have been "Do you agree with Sen Reid that we can't win the Iraq War Militarily?"
And considering the fact that this is exactly what Henry Kissenger, Gen Petreaus and what the Iraq Study Group has said...
"The bipartisan Iraq Study Group has concluded that the President's Iraq policy has failed and must be changed. As the November elections clearly demonstrated, that is an assessment shared by the American people.
"If the President is serious about the need for change in Iraq, he will find Democrats ready to work with him in a bipartisan fashion to find a way to end the war as quickly as possible.
So, the answer should be a no-brainer.
Y'know - something pithy like "Hell YES!"
Outlets like Media Matters are vital at pointing out these repeated gross failures by the mainstream media to simply report the truth, whether Soros or his reported shadow puppeteer - the dastardly Hillary Rodham Clinton - are behind it all or not.
The fact that the wingnuts are having fits worrying about how stupid MMFA is going to make them look, after they say something ridiculously bigoted, vile and profane - yet again - is just icing on the cake.
