Not five minutes after the van left, she started complaining. It was too hot, it was too dirty, too many bugs, it is too hard. She said she didn't want to do this and that it was a mistake. After biting my lip, in my calmest voice, I said: look we are on this river together, there is no turning back, I am sorry I got you into this. However, complaining is not going to get you out of this conoe any faster. At this moment the best thing you can do is shut the hell up and row.

I see the Iraqi war the same way. Democrats gave Bush the authority to use force. As soon as he did, they started bitching and complaining. The difference is that the bitching and complaining gives comfort to the enemy making things more difficult. At this point Democrats need to shut the f*** up and help row.
