3. Thanks - heavier on politics than I hoped, but still made crucial points |
|
that need to be pressed in the internet forums.
>>>>> The potential of a progressive majority, or center-left, politics is there. Not since Watergate has there been the opportunity. In both crises, the unpopularity of an imperial war led the White House to illegally discredit and spy on its critics, lose credibility with a majority of Americans, and prompt Congress to cut off funding for war.
As a rapidly-evolving situation appears today, the war is not going to end either "now" or in December. Bush continues to reject the advice of many military experts to withdraw at the "request" of our client regime in Baghdad . Kerry's proposal, if amplified by bloggers and independent media, will draw support from voters hungry for withdrawal and still despondent over Bush's 2004 victory. It helps ensure that Iraq will be an issue in politics and the media despite those who prefer denial and avoidance.

6. I wish Tom would run for Senator against Dianne Feinstein. |
|
He was my Congressman for years and I think he's needed in Washington again.

8. He was always a favorite of mine - he was another "tough dove" that I |
|
respected. Always understood the military and its needs while maintaing his stand that war should always be the last resort.
