Of course its posturing and sloganeering and those who don't see it as such deserve to be taken advantage of...and many have. But a growing majority in this country see through the bullshit and aren't buying the lies. The hypocrisies are so blatant now and the promises of this regime so unfulfilled (unless you're rich and got another tax cut) that this rhetoric will backfire.

Polls show a majority want a "cut" policy...a goal to achieve and a timeframe to expect this to happen. We want to know what signs of "victory" are needed. Most though we'd bump off Saddam and our troops would be home and in victory parades in weeks and months. It's now 3 ugly years later with no end in sight and an even foggier future ahead. In the meantime our military gets more demoralized...and this is getting back to the "folks at home"...thus the slime boating now of John Murtha.

Focusing on their lies and trying to refute them is a strawman's game and one the Democrats always lose at. It's time to create our own message and voice and see how they refute it.

Cheers...
