Rep. Lane Evans (D-IL): "Many re-thinking their support for the war"
This interview was just on our local news ( http://www.wandtv.com ). Rep. Evans said that many in Congress who initially supported the IWR, et al, are re-thinking their position, including "a significant number of Republicans".

Could this be good news for us? :)

1. I wonder how many of them are up for Re-Election?
Sounds like more people want to distance themselves from Bush.

2. Sanity and Reason peeps their heads out of the shadows
Perhaps a paradigm shift is in the making.

Bad news for Bushistas.

3. That's what I'm thinking.
He also said that "many" have told him privately that they would not have voted in favor of the IWR, had the WH told them the truth.

I sense the cracks in the facade are growing.
