We are not building a democracy in Iraq, we are destroying it here.

The Bush-Cheney administration is working on democratic rights, not to bring them to Iraq, but rather to destroy them in the U.S. If anyone thinks Bush-Cheney truly care about democratic or human rights they are truly naive and uninformed.

2. And yet only one Senator --
Russell Feingold -- had the balls to vote against the USA Patriot Act that has done so much damage to our democratic and civil rights.

didn't the blogger say something like:

and as I type this, CNN reports that coalition forces will attack targets in Najaf (sp?).
