In 2008, authors David Horowitz and Ben Johnson released their book, "Party of Defeat." It chronicled the Democratic Party's duplicitous efforts regarding its initial support for the Bush administration's prosecution of the war in Iraq, followed by their attempts to undermine it--for nothing more than crass political considerations. In a his new book, "Duty: Memoirs of a Secretary at War," former defense secretary Robert M. Gates, who served in both the Bush and Obama administrations, delivers a devastating confirmation of Horowitz's and Johnson's arguments.
