| Morning Joe- Bernstein is ripping them apart |
|
"Congress was enthusiastic about starting these two wars" He flat out said that the press failed to explain what these wars would mean and THE FACTS ON THE GROUND
Joe tried to counter with the "professional left protestors" who protested in 2004 and 2005 and so on (as if those protests got a 20th of the news coverage that the Tea Baggers get) Bernstein said that the lack of a draft changed the equation. "Would Senator Clinton have voted for a war if Chelsea had to go fight in it?"
He finished by saying that we have shown that there are different and better ways of fighting the war in Afghanistan.

| 1. I have loads of time for Berstein |

He is correct as usual - of course Joe Scum would like us to believe that Obama started all three of them

| 2. If there was a draft, your kid and my kid would be drafted, |
|
The connected Republicans would get their kids in the Air Force, and the truly wealthy, like the Clintons, would never have to worry about it.

| 4. Honestly, do we really need Carl Bernstein to tell us that the reason there is no Vietnam War type |
|
of protest against the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars is because we don't have a draft?
Who doesn't know this?
Tell me something I don't know...
