what i see muthra and yesterday gave democrats
i think murtha went the furthest in bringing troop home. this is
progression and the way it works is an idea is taken to extreme. people get used to and comfortable with it and they can move forward. we have watched kerry help this process for 10 months now. people want the end result to happen first, that isnt how progression works. the interesting thing with muthra

his has been the most extreme. dems were wary because it was so far forward. then murtha was shamefully attacked. that allowed dems to support murtha in character and integrity. that was grand for dems. bad for repugs. then the trippy thing is that repugs gave us a gift last night wit their outrageous, most extreme proposal

that makes murthas proposal moderate, no longer extreme. the repugs are the ones that will allow progression to take a huge step forward by putting out the most extreme and allowing the dems to say, no...... now they can go to muthra and say, but...... muthra proposal is reasonable

i am seeing this as a gift. i think it will be easier for dems to now support murtha

4. This line of your post is most important:
that makes murthas proposal moderate, no longer extreme.

Bingo. It's no longer viewed as "fringe" or "loony left" to want the troops brought home, it's now a reasonable request posed by a moderate Dem who is a-what? 30-year Marine veteran? Let them question his patriotism--they'll look like fools.
