Graham: Reid advocating a 'mistake for the ages'
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-South Carolina, a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, has issued a statement on Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid's recent comment that the Iraq war is "lost":
"Majority Leader Reid's willingness to withdraw and declare defeat -- in the face of horrific acts of terrorism -- would be a mistake for the ages. It would undercut General Petraeus's new strategy, not yet fully implemented, and ensure the defeat of this young democracy. Its also would be a death blow to forces of moderation throughout the throughout the Middle East." |
