We still have war...in spades...and Dem congressmen lining up to tell us to shut up
and go along. How many incumbents are you willing to support now? I will not support either a Blue Dog or a DLC candidate for any office. Dog catcher included.

1. Rove WAS right.
They have a permanent republican majority.

5. I'll support dems who support positions and policies I can live with
as a human being with reasonable sensibilities, and war is not among those sensibilities.

3. I will not support anyone who supports the war.
If there are reasons to support it, they should be honest and tell us why. If they think they're going to get re-elected in 2008 for basically not doing what people want them to do, they're mistaken.

This was being discussed on television last night. I think it was Hardball but I'm not sure. Basically, the Dems who were elected in 2006 haven't done what they were elected to do, and they have failed to express why they haven't to their constituents. The result is, the Dems are losing their base, as are the Republicans, over this war.

7. Why do they ignore the will of the Iraqi people? Democracy? Hah!
60% of the Iraqi people support the insurgency.
Al Qaeda in Iraq has strength of about 500 people.
When the U.S. military leaves (if that ever happens) the Iraqis will run Al Qaeda out of Iraq.
