Senator Graham, this is not double down; this is all in.

The public is going to break against us big time.

I believe that is all we have. The reason we are not sending 31,500 is we just cannot get them.

Wars are about winning and losing.

This is the last best chance and the question is, the last hand to be played, should you play it?

Could I go to Fallujah tomorrow? Could I go downtown to Fallujah tomorrow as a Senator?

So, it's your belief that Iran is trying to, basically, drive us out of Iraq so they would, I guess, be a winner, if we left?

I think we need to continue to, certainly, make a point of that in every forum that we have...

Is it pretty clear that elements of the Iranian Government are actively involved in killing American soldiers?

Democrat and presidential hopeful Bill Richardson, Republican Senator Lindsey Graham and many other key political players.

For the first time in a long time, this Congress is going to break its silence, and we will no longer be a rubber stamp for this administration on Iraq.

So long as we have troops in field in harm's way making the best of a bad situation, they have got our full support. We certainly wouldn't cut the funds out from under them and leave them in the lurch.

To start withdrawing troops would be equivalent to surrendering in the central battle front in the war on terror.

We're on the verge of chaos. The current plan is not working.

I was an early supporter of the concept of military commissions and their use in the war on terror. I believed then and I still believe now that they are historically grounded and the proper forum to prosecute alleged terrorists.

The problem with the way he chose to do this is that they dealt Congress out early on, and they paid a price in the court for that.

I think we need to be careful not to try and create regulations for a problem that doesn't exist.

Senator DeMint, people often have noble intent, but I think there are unintended consequences by some of the actions.
