The Democratic National Committee is asking party members to defend Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle's criticism of the way President Bush has handled the Iraq crisis even as U.S.-led forces invade the country.

In the hours before and after the president's order Wednesday night to begin the war to topple Saddam Hussein's regime, the DNC sent e-mails to its grass-roots activists that said "Democratic leaders are standing up to Bush; Make sure you stand up for them!"

LOL! The Dems sound like pacificists and anti-America jerks as every hour goes by. All this good news is making plunging them deeper than ever into doom and gloom.

[dawgmeat9]

The lefties are getting desperate. With Saddam's rumored death looming about, a re-election sounds promising.

[goldstategop]

They thought Saddam would make Iraq Bush's Vietnam. LOL

[DB]

Hurry up and support Dashole, PLEASE!

The Dumbicrats can become the French of American politics!

[jporcus]

The Dems are becoming more and more isolated. Their "we support the troops" rings so hollow. The Dem senators have all caved. Message to my senator Barbara Boxer: Move to France, you idiot.

[goldstategop]

I wouldnt mind if they all joined the French Parliament.

"Now is one of those times when we are all standing shoulder to shoulder," said Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman of Connecticut. "President Bush is a Republican. I'm a Democrat. But at this moment there's not an inch of distance between us."

Eeeeeuuuwwwwwwwww.

[truth_seeker]

Isn't Clinton's fundraiser Terry McAuliff still running the DNC?

Clearly the dem party is showing a BIG divide. Lieberman, Biden, Kerry, Edwards have behaved appropriately, in what historically is the norm, by the "loyal opposition" party.

New norms have been set, by Carter and Clinton, who have behaved horribly.

Next election, the stands and quotes of all these folks will need to come out of RNC files. Should be some very useful stuff.

You don't see Ford and Bush Sr. chiming in, at all.

"Republicans have responded with personal attacks on Democrats, questioning their patriotism in order to gain a political advantage from the military conflict."

So our 2 major political entities in this country are Democrat and Democrat now? I don't think so!

[nanomid]

DemocRats line up behind Dashole crap attractor.

[nopardons]

Dims just don't know when to stop digging ; bless them. LOL

[Dont Mention the War]

When you have to BEG a bunch of trained ass-kissing yes men (and women) to continue toeing the line, you *know* you're in trouble.

[Vigilanteman]

Ain't that the honest, naked truth? And in other news, the Baathist Party is urging all their followers to rally behind Saddam.

[Claire Voyant]

"not an inch of distance between me and the President".....Joe LIEberman.

The Democrats get more EVIL every day. The Prarie Peanut is Toast.

[surelyclintonsbaddream]

It cracks me up how they just don't get it. We were responsible for Lott's removal. They stand behind Daschle even more. They lost the elections so they decided they weren't left enough. They are not bright enough to get that THEY are the reason more people voted Rep and THEY are the reason more are supporting Bush. Just like Hollywood, let them speak.

[Moby Grape]

Oh YES....PLEASE rally behind Tom Thumb the anti-American...GREAT PLAN!!!!(and if you rally BEHINd him, you can all be seen, as he will only come up to your belf buckles.

[bert]

The anti American Triumverate......Daschle, Chirac, Saddam .

DNC support for this group is suicidal.

[CavScoutNC]

Daschle is a gutless traitor and is the modern Benedict Arnold. I pray that the people of South Dakota rise up and depose this traitor of America.

Maybe he can seek exile in France.
