I've got to call BS on this. Webb has been a 'RAT for many, many moons. He was bashing Republicans before President Bush got elected.

[tomzz]

Webb says Allen is part of an arrogant Republican majority in Washington bent on repeating in Iraq the blunders that killed so many of his buddies in Vietnam a generation ago.

That's crap in every way possible. The Iraq operation is absolutely necessary unless you think that we should allow people to poison the US Senate office building with anthrax and go unpunished, and George Allen is the best the republican party has right now. He's definitely not part of any sort of an "arrogant elite" or any such.

...bent on repeating in Iraq the blunders that killed so many of his buddies in Vietnam a generation ago.

Iraq is NOTHING like Vietnam - NOTHING!

Somewhere in my boxes of of books, I have a signed copy of Webb's "A Sense of Honor." A good man. Better than the two POS's we have here in Jersey.

Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)

Webb just had Opinion Journal publish a piece by him about his five favorite books.

One of the Books he recommended, and I agree on the choice, is "The Guns of August" by Barbara Tuchman. I wrote this response to Opinon Journal, which they published:

---

Referring to "The Guns of August" Mr. Webb wrote: "This is the book that every policy maker pushing for the invasion of Iraq should have read, marked, learned from and digested before sending the U.S. off to war."

So Webb believes we "rushed" to war with Iraq. He also apparently thinks the events leading to the war in Iraq present an unequivocal and clear parallel with the events of August 1914. This is a clearly a person who doesn't realize the way the world changed on September 11, 2001, and now he wants to be a senator.

Great, just what we need. The fact that people like Anthony Zinni and John Murtha support him should tell us all we need to know when we consider which national-security policies he would support as an elected official.

I think one John Kerry in the Senate is one more than we should have, and two of them if Webb succeeds is an excess.

[Spirited]

I might be tempted to vote for him if he was running to unseat Warner (who's a Democrat in Republican clothing).
But he has fouled himself up by his claims. He just wants to get in on Kaine's tails.

More garbage coming from another DemonRat,Webb.

[MIchaelTArchangel]

The real reason is that Webb HAS to run as a Rat, because he comes with baggage that means he could never run as a Republican ... so he joined the party of Willie Jeff, a/k/a Cold Hard Case a/k/a Dollah Bill; Tom Dodd, a/k/a Censure? The Idiots in KonneKtiKut Will Just Reelect me; Adam Clayton Powell, the Congressman from Bimini; Bobby "Big Bird" Byrd, a/k/a the Grand Wizard of the KKK, etc. He seems to fit right in with that crowd.

This is one the dems new plans. They think we're so stupid that we cannot tell the difference between a patriot in a uniform .. and a pretender in a uniform (aka John Kerry). I think they've already lost several races trying to pull off this scam.

The next plan is "pretend Christians" - again assuming that if you can talk the talk - they don't have to walk the walk. And .. of course .. they still think we're too stupid to figure that out.

This is an old play from an old play book. The former decorated candidate introduces himself to the public. This is followed by a beautiful puff piece written about them in the Washington Post, NY Times, LA Times, Boston Globe or any other commie rag. It is like the west coast offense. Everyone is using it. Fortunately for the United States these are some guys who ran on an "I was in the military and hate war but know how to fight one" platform and lost.

1. Paul Hackett
2. John Kerry
3. Wesley Clarke
4. Jimmy Carter
5. George Mcgovern

I think we can infer that the country does not want these candidates.
