Party's leaders to avoid protests

War protesters will hear from a few congressional Democrats as they rally in Washington this weekend, but top party leaders will be conspicuously absent.

Neither Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada nor House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi will be speaking, nor will potential presidential candidates Sens. Joseph R. Biden Jr. of Delaware, Hillary Rodham Clinton and John Kerry.

I wonder why they dont stand up for what they believe in? YEAH RIGHT

[Reactionary]

The Stalinists on the Left can't say what they really believe. If they did, they wouldn't enjoy any political power at all.

What they do is lie and dress up the Marxist language of radical equality and class warfare in flowery language so other corrupt fools will buy it.

[smoothsailing]

The dems don't know what they believe until the polls come out.

I assume they will all be busy down in Texas helping out with Hurricane relief.... or maybe not.

Are the David Duke types still going around with these people? If would be precious to have the Duke squad shoulder to shoulder with Democratic officials. Maybe they can make brown and red tie-syed shirts and sing kumbaya.

[Mr. Keys]

Not only are Dem leaders lying despicable snakes, but they are also cowards for being afraid to be seen with their true base.

Cynthia McKinney,John Conyers,and David Duke singing...(Add song title here)

This is the hypocrisy and disillusionment of being a liberal....Your own representation in Washington doesn't take you seriously enough to risk the embarassment, much less expose their true political hides in the public eye, standing shoulder to shoulder with this rediculous 'base'.

Any self-respecting person left in that party should've packed by now.

[Smokin' Joe]

Well, some of the DEMwits learned something from Kerry's VVAW 'experience'....

[eric_da_grate]

McKinney and Conyers are 'politically safe' reps at rallies like this....The black caucus is free to be as radical and reckless as they wish, being that the GOP posses no threat in their districts....This is the sort of insincere politicking and calculation that passes as 'real conviction' to brain-dead liberals.

This definitely calls for a Photoshop by someone better at it than I.

[smoothsailing]

I'm not too skilled at it either,but it would make a great graphic!

[goldstategop]

Frauds and hypocrites. As Rush said, this fake game of being a "centrist" and pretending to be who you're not won't last much longer. These people don't have the guts to be forthright - to be who they really are - and that's why they'll keep on losing elections.

The dem rats will of course be on the tube denouncing Dubya's war on monday, what happen to kerry's plan for removal of our troops, I can only think he 's waiting for his 2008 election win to implement.They have no constructive plans,only vicious, race baiting attacks and slanderous comments; the DEMS are going moonbat crazy because they are out of power.

[Joe Boucher]

What? No mention of whether algore is going to show up.
Man that would really piss off the hildabeast if al claimed the very left of the democrat party right out from under her nose.
Come on al, just show up and make one of your maniacal speaches to the schepple.

[Buffettfan]

Where is Hanoi John Kerry? This is right up his alley. You know that he is just chomping at the bit to get out in the streets and blame America for this racist war.
