Reply #33: Except that half of America is drinking the kool-aid

[Hippo_Tron]

Half of America belives that Rice was mis-informed, and that she is not at fault for 9/11 or her statements leading up to the Iraq War. We couldn't convince them before November 2nd and a fillibuster of Rice isn't going to change their minds now. The SAD truth is that only thing that will make them wake up is more of our troops returning home in body bags. We will look like idiots according to that half of the country that voted for Bush and the mainstream media will portray us that way. If we do fillibuster Rice then we have destroyed senatorial courtesy. If we don't, then we have a chance of salvaging the principal and demonize the Repukes when they try to demonize our cabinet appointments for dumb reasons when we confirmed their evil bitch.

Don't get me wrong, we need to fight and we need to fight hard. But I just think that this is a battle that we need to give up so that we can live to fight another.
