Dems haven't fought back because...

... Dems don't have to fight back. We only need to bide our time and wait for the Repugs to hang themselves.

Give Rush and Rove enough rope and they will do themselves in without any help from us.

1. When it comes to Traitorgate, I agree

The American people already know this is serious and transcends politics.

2. Dems voted for the Patriot Act because??

?

3. this man didnt, his name is Dennis Kucinich

Only guy in the race to vote against that and only one of two to vote against IWR. I know others were against IWR so dont flame. On the Patriot Act, I am proud of him for knowing on the spot that was wrong and not allowing himself to be tricked, I can forgive voters of that horrible act.

5. always on my horse lol

The first time I heard about Kucinich was here, I saw his name with Cythina McKinney. Ive also read brief things on him, I read today in a book about ethnic groups in America about Dennis being a Croatian politican, and I saw him mentioned in a book about South Slavic immigration. LOL its funny, before I really started supporting him I didnt know what he was ethnic wise: first it was Ukrainian, then Serbian, the Croatian, and now I am positive its Croatian/Irish, lol I feel like how my fellow Irish did with JFK in 1960, I am also part South Slavic like Dennis and Irish. This man is brave, I think we really gotta give him a lot of props for not giving in to fear after 9/11. Remember the adminstration basically said you will be at fault if you do not vote for this thing and an attack happens, Dennis being the soul that he is didnt take the bait.

7. That's not why they didn't fight back. Though the Repubs may indeed

wind up hanging themselves, the reason Dems didn't fight back is that MOST of them are not really opposed to Republican policies.
