This is more of the game-playing ... of Dems moving to the right to prove
that they're not "soft" on war -- not "soft" on crime -- not "soft" on anything
---
but we have the brutalization of the nation, death of our soldiers, and the bills
from corrupt capitalism to prove that this is simple stupidity.
Dems have been financing Bush's wars for three years to prove they're not "soft" --
And now one day a Dem may nuke Iran to prove that Democrats aren't "soft" like the
right wing Nazi party says they are!!
Helen is right -- just as Jane Hamsher is correct in her criticism -- and as many
other liberals/progressives are correct in calling out this warmonger EVEN WHEN A
DEMOCRAT DOES IT!!
