15. Kicked!
If it weren't for right wing attacks against the patriotism of Iraq war skeptics the skeptics would have been heard and the war wouldn't have happened.

The right is still getting away with stifling debate with the same tactic. The MoveOn.org uproar was used to get General Betray Us through the week without questions about the veracity of his testimony being addressed.

Democrats have to fight back. Its too late with the MoveOn.org controversy. Condemning Limbaugh is a great place to start now.

Limbaugh is the point man for the right wing media that has 30% of the public brainwashed. The GOP depends on this brainwashing to get their agenda through and to intimidate the media.

While talk radio broadcasts endless hate statements like "Democrats cheer when US troops are killed" or "The left wants everybody to be poor and dependent on the government so they can control everyone" the GOP sits back and reaps the benefits without ever getting their hands dirty. The right wing controls America through propaganda and the MSM never mentions what the right wing is up to.

Its time to make the elected portion of the GOP take responsibility for what its thugs do. If the GOP denounces Limbaugh its screwed. If it sticks up for Limbaugh the GOP loses the middle. That means fewer GOP, and a better chance for progressive victories. Its time to attack the machine.

It would be really cool to see Limbaugh get his ass kicked too!
