Two Sides of the Same Coin

One of the favorite memes of the left (examined and found wanting here, here, here, and here) is, “Stay the course is not a plan.”

The other side of that coin is this:

The only remedy to a series of Iraq policy failures by President Bush is a Democratic takeover of Congress in the Nov. 7 election, Virginia Senate candidate Jim Webb said Saturday.

[...]

“Since 2003, President Bush has laid out nine different plans for victory in Iraq, none of them serious and none of them workable. And most seriously, this incompetence has hindered our ability to fight international terror,” Webb said.

Webb’s (and the Dem’s) plan?

“A Democratic Congress will demand from day one that the president find a real way forward in Iraq. We’ll work with the administration and other Republicans to develop a concrete plan, but none of us are ready to settle for empty rhetoric, or the same old unacceptable results,” Webb said.

Ironically the headline of the piece is Webb: Democrats will provide Iraq remedy

The just don’t want to say how.

UPDATE: Blue Crab Boulevard picked up on the same thing.

What exactly the wonderful, magical remedy will be, that he didn’t say. Just the usual empty, non-positions that continue to show the Democrats do not have any ideas, only criticism.

You’ve got that right.
