Huff Po: Dems Take On Petraeus

Looks like they came out swinging during the debate on Spanish language tv tonight..

Clinton: "Quit Refereeing Their Civil War And Bring Our Troops Home As Soon As Possible"...

Obama: "Overturn Withdrawal Veto"...

Edwards: "No Funding Without A Timetable For Withdrawal"...

Dodd: Terminate Participation Based On Firm Deadlines...

Richardson: "Our Kids Are Becoming Targets"..

1. This Would Be Good

If I didn't suspect that the dems in Congress will give them cover by voting for the so called surge to continue while allowing the candidates to give lip service to the people, I hope my cynicism is greatly misplaced.

2. They'll do whatever Petraeus and the cabal wants.

If they can pass a Bill like the FISA Bill, they will play along with the repukes on the invasion.

3. Kerry has been on it for days

Whether we are able to get the message out about the political failure will depend on whether the netroots and activists fight - or whine.

4. Well I'm Glad Move-On

Is doing their dog and pony show. There have also been a lot of good articles in the last few days, I just read one by (surprise) Matthew Dowd. We also needs to call our reps and howl like the wind.
