They can't get past the early 1970's. That's the last time the Dems were able to succeed as who they really are.

I dont' want them to be saved. Let them continue the madness, we need more Republicans in the govt.

Yet the war was later lost mostly because a partisan antiwar Senate, emboldened by Watergate and in hatred of a duplicitous Nixon, cut off most material and military aid to the south Vietnamese. That precluded as well American air support to deter an opportunistic conventional invasion from a calculating northern army that had quickly sized up the politics of the U.S. Congress.

History is written by the winners. The Left (at home and abroad) won the Vietnam War. The truth of how close they came to losing will never by publicly known.

STATEMENT OF SENATOR JOHN KERRY

RE: COMMENCEMENT OF MILITARY STRIKES IN IRAQ

Thursday, March 20, 2003

WASHINGTON, DC – Senator John Kerry issued the following statement in response to the commencement of military strikes in Iraq:

“It appears that with the deadline for exile come and gone, Saddam Hussein has chosen to make military force the ultimate weapons inspections enforcement mechanism. If so, the only exit strategy is victory, this is our common mission and the world’s cause. We're in this together. We want to complete the mission while safeguarding our troops, avoiding innocent civilian casualties, disarming Saddam Hussein and engaging the community of nations to rebuild Iraq.”

It never was "the party of the people."

It has always been, and remains, "the party of those who want to rule the people" and their useful fools.

"Dean, Kerry, and Murtha are bright and good men."

Surely the writer jests! How are they bright and good? Bright: intelligent, clever, quick, alert. Good: honorable, virtuous, ethical, devout, kind, truthful. I see very few signs of these attributes in the RATs mentioned in the article. Truth is, these guys are the very antithesis of those attributes. Gag!

[Starboard]

Dean, Kerry, and Murtha are bright and good men who rightly worry that more Americans will die in a far-off place for a cause that they think is now hopeless.

While this may be true for Murtha, Dean and Kerry are simply policital opportunists of the worst kind who only worry about wresting power back from Republicans.

Excellent article. Thanks.

"How odd to be effusive over the Democrat whose advice you reject while ignoring the spokesman whose advice you actually follow."

Agreed!

But there you have the very essence of liberalism. Since they are "liberated" from all absolutes, saying one thing and doing another is easy.

[ricks_place]

Kerry then admitted that he had been brainwashed by President Bush and the WMD intelligence and the Swift-boat Veterans. He regretted this brainwashing and his subsequent vote authorizing the war against Saddam.

Democratic Implosion. Can the party of the people be saved from itself?

Hopefully, no.

When somebody you don't like is drowning, the best thing you can do is shove a hose in their mouth. Good riddance.
