Strong remarks from Frank Gaffney, president of the Center for Security Policy and former assistant secretary of defense for international security policy under President Reagan on last night’s show.

KUDLOW: Frank Gaffney, Nancy Pelosi said this is going to be a month of action to end the war. Senator Harry Reid says we have a moral obligation to end the war. He’s already declared defeat. How much is this going to affect President George Bush, Frank?

FRANK GAFFNEY: I’m much less worried how it’s going to affect President Bush than how it’s going to affect all of us, specifically the country. I worry that what defeat will translate into is not simply a debacle in Iraq–orders of magnitude worse than anything we’ve seen so far, not just for the Iraqi people, but for our retreating forces. A Dunkirk in the desert seems to me to be a distinct possibility if we retreat pell-mell, as the Democrats seem to want now. And a disaster, I think, for those of us in the free world more generally who are confronting an enemy who will not stop the war just because we’ve decided we’ve had enough of it.
