I posted this: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=2444533&mesg_id=2444533

in which I said the Demorcratic party should have apologized for having authorized the war, and, moreover, Kerry, Edwards, Gephardt and Lieberman had no business running for the presidency having done so--at least without at least saying that they're sorry and have learned from their mistake...although I'd still say that a true man of character would concede that such a mistake should disqualify anyone for being President, let alone continue to be a senatory.

So what kind of responses did I get? aside from those who backed me up, the rest either chided me for not already being aware that several of those senators have already apologized (albeit AFTER the election, and it wasn't the entire Democratic Party in official capacity), and the others chided me because they didn't think an apology was required since the vote was based on faulty intelligence (despite Kucinich and Dean knowing better with same intelligence and the Supreme Allied Commander having told them not to vote yes unless the bill MANDATED Bush come back to Congress.

so thanks for proving that, not withstanding this party looks like Socrates and Mother Theresa combined compared to Repubs, there's some serious incontinuity on the most critical issue of our time. ....and we wonder why Repubs can get so much traction when accusing Dems of being wishy washy.

ALL HAIL PRESIDENT TUSH!

1. Please Explain
Sounds to me like you made a statement, and some people agreed with you and some disagreed. Are we inconsistent because we have differing opinions? You seem to want to dismiss those that agreed with you, so are we inconsistent because those that disagree with you disagree for differing reasons?

I'd also be curious about how this proves anything, but I realize that some people have a rather lax definition of "proof" so I'm not even going to bother.

3. I don't belong to an organized political party, I'm a Democrat!
That was said by Will Rogers over 75 years ago. It's still appropriate today. If you knew anything about our party, the responses you got wouldn't have surprised you.

Also, calling people minions isn't a good way to make friends.

4. If I knew, all the way out here in North Texas, that the war thing.....
.....was a big fat lie, then I know damned well that the Dems in Washington did too! And that they were pushed to vote yes by a fear of being called unpatriotic. But when it comes down to the nutcutting, they are STILL a helluvalot closer to my mindset on everything else than ANYTHING coming out of the Bush Fascist Party.
