Time to wind down war; John M. Tomaszewski; Beaver County Times; July 11, 2005.

Below is a detailed critique of the subject letter.

“Whenever the war in Iraq began, the Bush administration thought it would be a quick sound victory; this is no longer possible. The war is helping the terrorists.”

[RWC] When folks like Mr. Tomaszewski claim “the Bush administration thought it would be a quick sound victory,” I wish they’d provide us with quotes to support the allegation.

“The war is helping the terrorists?” How?

“U.S. Senator Chuck Hagel, ranking Republican from Nebraska, says we are losing in Iraq. The time has come to start winding down the war in Iraq.”

[RWC] Mr. Tomaszewski failed to note Mr. Hagel opposed the war from the beginning.
