Re: Democratic leadership

I agree that most of the Democratic leadership will probably make supportive noises once the fighting starts, regardless of their true opinions. To do otherwise would be political suicide.

I could make a good case that the Democrats are listening to their liberal base more than they are listening to the rest of America, or they would have switched around a while ago. It may be too late to convince anyone that their sudden support will be genuine.

And when I am talking hypocrisy, I am not thinking of Kosovo so much. I am primarily comparing Democratic Party views of Clinton's attack on Iraq back then versus Bush's attack on Iraq now. Apples and apples.
