PURPLE FINGERS HERE AT HOME [Ramesh Ponnuru] I understand that some Republicans are thinking of having ink-stained fingers tonight as a gesture of solidarity with the Iraqis. I admire the intention, but I suspect it will come across the wrong way. It's not as though Republican congressmen have taken the risks that the Iraqi voters have. Liberal commentators and Democratic politicians will probably accuse the Republicans of trying to borrow some of those voters' moral authority. Is that a debate Republicans really want to waste time on?
Yes, Rogue....I thought so.
