Americans want the Democrats to speak up

Kerry did!

Senator John Kerry
“Dissent”
Faneuil Hall
April 22, 2006

We must insist now that patriotism does not belong to those who defend a President’s position—it belongs to those who defend their country. Patriotism is not love of power; it is love of country. And sometimes loving your country demands you must tell the truth to power. This is one of those times.

1. Pretty tough when the oppostion owns the entire mass media

If an energy plan falls in the forest, and everyone hears Osama's voice instead, does it make any noise?
