re: Democrats and war
Sorry, the "chickenhawk" argument--or more accurately, diversion--has been declared off-limits for the 2008 election. Read the memos.
Again, you're not coming within a mile of the real issue.
Your side has nothing to deal with this kind of thing, Art. Nothing. All the indignation, anger, and diversion in the world can't hide that.
It's pretty much proven by the desperation move of having to pull up Democrats from decades ago, who closed out wars "cleanly and effectively" by obliterating much of Europe and dropping nuclear weapons on major cities in Japan.
A bit more on Obama and ignorance of history here.
