The Democrats won control of the House and Senate last fall, but the Nutroots overreached in claiming a mandate they were not given to "end the war now." Just like Hillary Clinton thought she had a mandate to socialize health care in 1993. Democrats constantly overreach when they win. They do not know the art of compromise or conciliation. They were SOBs when they ran the House for 40 years before 1994 and they are SOBs now.

The last paragraph of the article really says it all. This is NOT an anti-war movement, it is an anti-Bush movement dressed up in an anti-war movement's clothing. They do not see surrender in Iraq as bad for America, just bad for George Bush and so it must happen.

The Nutroots really didn't overreach. They were used and were too dumb to realize that. They were responsible for the Dems winning in '06 and they were allowed to believe that they would be rewarded with the end of the war and the impeachment of Bush. Now they are po'd.

You are right that most don't understand the art of compromise, but that stems from being raised as spoiled brats who always got their way and who have still not grown up.

You are also correct that it was never really about the war. It was about Bush. Soros's hatred for Bush spread like a cancer. President wasn't the one who divided this nation. It was Soros and his minions - people like Ritter and Kucinich, Medea Benjamin, et al, who in turn used Sheehan. It was the leftist media who were worried about their bottom line in the international markets.

The whole thing nauseates me.
