I disagree, and I don't think you're being entirely honest.
Tell me, when you voted for John kerry, did you vote for him because of his strong record, his firm positions, and his obvious leadership qualities??? I'm going to assume that those things had mostly nothing to do with it. You were ABB, right?
Take the impending civil war that never happened. Folks on the Left, like our friend Max, as well as the media, were declaring it the straw that broke the camels back. If you believed the Left, then you'd have to believe that that poor camel has been mutilated.
I hear a lot of criticism over how were are supposedly making things worse there, that we need to get out, but I never hear much beyond that. No plans, no policy alternatives, no ideas for defeating terrorism....just get out. We NEED to get out. Bush lied, people died. This isn't proactive, it's defeatist. I don't even think it's all unwarranted. I've said repeatedly that I'd love to see a Democrat step up and propose how to handle this better. We haven't seen that yet, and if we do, they'll get ripped apart the way Joe Lieberman does. The Democratic Party used to be a party of ideas. Now it's simply her majesty's loyal (well not so loyal) opposition, and I'm sort of tired of it. We are the GOP in the 1930's and 40's. Way to go!
