Erm, when were we ever losing in Iraq? Was there some point where the insurgents were actually beating the American soldiers over there?

Furthermore, I never understood the argument that certain news organizations or those of us who opposed the war "want us to lose". Can someone clarify this for me? Have large numbers of people (including those liberal news organizations) actually said this specifically?
