1. Note the bipartisan character of the make-up of that board.

warmongers come in both parties. And while people can dismiss ol' zell, what about Charles Schumer (a central Democratic Party leader) and donna brazile (Gore's troubled campaign manager).

2. Gee...

...I'm so glad that the Sunday morning talk shows offer us Donna "warmonger" Brazile as
someone who can articulate and stand up for Dem values.

She needs to go.

After she stood up for Junior during Katrina...she fell out of my good graces. Now, I'm completely
done with her.

What's with these warmongering freaks?

3. "Defending democracy" is not the same as IMPOSING democracy.

This organization does not endorse invading the middle east.

6. Did you read the article? n/t

4. Certainly this shows an unsavory lot......plus a couple of "unexpected"...

Don't know if that makes them the NEW PNAC, though. Just cause an organization is called by an acronym doesn't make it the boogeyman necessarily. Can you provide some quoted text within their "what we are about" that would point to the fact that they embrace the PNAC mentality and approach and are basically a replacement?

5. Here

The limits of U.S. power and the follies of the Bush administration's arrogance cut short PNAC's glory days. Although forced into retreat, the Israel-focused neoconservative camp remains strong. The neocon-led Foundation for Defense of Democracies, which was created immediately after the 9/11 attacks to advance right-wing Zionist positions in Washington, includes many former PNAC associates and has become one of the most influential policy institutes on the war on terrorism and U.S.-Israel relations. http://www.irc-online.org/content/3415
