Cokie Reports

"Americans would prefer to win"

That may be true but doesn't the fact that Americans want the Iraq war to end far outweight, her statement?

Her statement was true 4 fours ago but no longer. The Iraq war can't be won. American soldiers are establishing bases, investors are planning to build a Disney-like theme park. Many Iraqis still have no electricity and we're offering them a theme park?

Unbelievable...may Cokie hasn't heard about the proposal to build a Dizzyland in Iraq!

What planet does Cokie Roberts live on?

What does she think that the Democratic victories in 2006 represent other than the American electorate's rejection of the War in Iraq?

What exactly is there to "win" in Iraq? What does "winning" mean there?

How does America measure victory in a country we have invaded, occupied, looted, destabilized, continue to bomb, rape, torture and exploit.

And where the HELL is the American Peoples share of the Plunder? Everything goes into Bush/Cheney's pockets!

[thefrenchman6998]

Cokie is most likely heavily invested in U.S. corporate empire... laughing all the way to the bank!... A bonafide bitch!

[nickybabs]

I meant 2000 & 2004.

What planet is "Cokie" on? Most Americans want us out yesterday. They think this war was a mistake/rushed into on misleading intelligence, and that it has damaged our economy & fight against terrorism. Would most prefer to "win"? Of course! But in 5 years, winning has never been defined; what would winning be? No WMD's? Stable govt? Spread democracy? Permanent bases? Moving those goalposts! It's a great example of an inside the beltway reporter who's been isolated from real people for too long.

Hillary Clinton and health care are two things that should never be put together. Whit her new story about the mother that was refused health care at an ER is untrue. As an ER nurse we cannot BY LAW refuse you health care. The must be more to the story but, she did not check it out.

I have many different videos about health care and the holding of patients in our ER's The shortage of nurses does not help. Please take a look at some of them.

Healthcare is one of our biggest problems in this country and does not help when some one running for office can not tell the truth. If you are going to tell a story first make sure you know if it is true or not. We in healthcare can BY LAW turn you away from treatment, so maybe she should look into it.

Kooky is an idiot

[thesaudiagenda]

ah, but cokie knows what real americans want, despite what they tell pollsters. even though a vast majority say they want out of iraq no matter the situation on the ground, cokie, daughter of 2 congresscritters, sister of DC's biggest lobbyist, wife of an insider DC "journo" -- this woman knows what they really want, not just what they say they want. btw, the nickname "cokie" comes not from a drug habit, but her resemblance to a particular kind of frog ("coqui" in spanish)

[davemartin7777]

Cokie is a well paid Faux News liberal, period.

Cokie is as real a liberal as a professional wrester is a real wrester.

She's just another Rupbert Murdock, Faux News faux "liberal".

These people would sell their souls to pay their mortgage on their mansions.

[betterdays105]

Look in the dictionary under Washington Insider and you will find a picture of Cokie Roberts.

[HulksHeroes]

It amazes me how these idiots get on these discussion shows over and over and over again, when they are so damned absurd!?!

Obviously cookie wants the repugs to pull out of this mess with honor. She just doesn't get it that we aren't going to win the trophy and come home in parades of confetti and streamers.

This is Vietnam, the sequel. Get out and save lives....ours and theirs. It was a terrible mistake, and to prolong this worthless destruction is only making it a sadder mistake.

[jasperjava]

Of course Americans want to "win". Nobody wants to "lose". But nobody has even defined what "winning" means in Iraq.

If you want the troops there for another 100 years, vote for McCain. If you want to end the insanity, vote otherwise.

[billthebutcher2]

She is about the dumbest pundit around. At least some pundits have an agenda towards a certain party etc, but Cokie tries to play it like she's right down the middle and absolutely legit. But she is highly ignorant. She says things that only an insulated Beltway blowhard could come up with.

[weavrmom]

Why is Cokie allowed to comment on a news show, when she is so uninformed and out of touch? Does she ever read the paper? Does she see the polls showing how unpopular the occupation is?

Why this woman is regarded as intelligent enough to comment on what she had for breakfast is truly beyond me!

[dailyawesome]

How do you win an occupation?

[skeptikon]

Cokie doesn't speak for me.

[1TrueLiberator]

Don't forget, Cokie is a Republican.

Back the party, no matter what.

Stick to the party line and claim Democrats are not Bipartisan.

[dankirkd]

Cokie is cuckoo.
