So congresswoman Ros-Lehtinen whines about the MoveOn ad, yet compares Dems to Nazi sympathizers? |
|
Un-fucking real.....
If I were Skelton, I'd have removed her from the chamber.

1. MoveOn did go over the line |
|
But comparing all Dems to Nazi sympathizers is wrong and over the line as well. I, for one, am sick and tired of all the name calling and the bullshit. I don't care who started it, it all has to end. We need cicvil discourse. See, I believe that, by name calling, we are doing exactly what the right wing wants us to do, that is look bad to the majority of Americans who are just trying to get by and want this whole fucking thing to end. So I am not falling into their trap.

2. Betray-us was over the line, but just an inch |
|
Comparing Democrats to Chamberlain was so far over the line, she's gone all the way 'round the planet.

3. You mean the Ostrich Americans |
|
Those that bury their heads in the sand and hope that things work out.
MoveOn just put out what many here have been saying about the good general, and I don't recall seeing a whole lot of protests or attacks against those people here at DU who have referred to him as Betray-us!
Let's face the facts, he is doing exactly that by giving this pre-written report, he is betraying the troops!
Personally I'd rather have someone call me a name to my face then do it behind my back, because that's what cowards do, they talk about you behind your back and smile at you when you're looking them in the face!

those days are over. The time has come to end the war, Those supporting it are fools and must be treated as fools. Time to start war crimes trials , or at least with the spineless Dems , open a discussion. Petraus is a political animal, and deserves to do time.

4. Even if Move On did go over the line, the GOP are using |
|
this to distract from the real issue. THe GOP have put us in this quagmire, Insist on sending more and more troops into the gristmill, permitting WH to save face and run this war into the next presidency.
These things will not be discussed as they try to embarass the Democrats. If it were not the MoveOn Ad, they would be screaming about the Cut and Run Democrats or falsely accusing them of something.
The Dems in the House have to show just as much machismo in calling attention to GOP failings.
