Don't hear much if anything from them any more. Smoke and mirrors as I suspected.

3. It's a congressperson's nature not to oppose war. only a very few dare to

go against the tide in any real way.

4. Sorry to be playing Devil's advocate so much, but I like it

At what point does one's leaving the pro-war group go from being honorable, just mistaken at first, to being full of shit?
Was Cliton full of shit? Obama? or were they just mistaken?
If they were just mistaken, then can you please supply me with a time hack of when one goes from being mistaken to being "full of shit"? (I just want to get it straight)

Disclaimer: I'm not saying anyone is full of shit or not, just that people on both sides did the same thing.

Just know that where ever you are, I will be there also. Watching, waiting for a misspelling. You may think it's not going to happen, but, one day, you're gonna do it. I'll be right there, ready to point it out to everyone.

7. At this point, no one who says they are anti war

is full of shit.

The Iraq invasion of choice is that bad. Most of us at DU knew that to start with before 2003, but it's nice to see others removing the scales from their eyes.

6. I have met quite a few in the anti-war community

Most are Ron Paul supporters. But there are indeed anti-war republicans.

9. Even Luger was against it a couple of weeks ago according to the headlines though

He clammed right up after Tony Snow told the media that Luger didn't mean what he had said.

He must have got the message. So have some others I suspect.

13. Smith is raising money for McCain

on Wednesday in Portland. They're organizing a protest, I expect it to be good one. :)

Rat bastard sob thinks he can manipulate voters with his grandstanding speeches and then bring John McCain here and we won't notice??? I don't friggin' think so.

16. They stand with Ron Paul

He didn't vote for the unconstitutional Iraq resolution that many Democrats like Hillary or Edwards did.
