15. What do you expect him to say?
So moveon.org suggested that Petraeus betrayed his country. Very close to calling petraeus a traitor

How do you think that will help the Democrats get into the whitehouse in 2008?

What move.org SHOULD have done was bash this administration for using Petraeus to spread their lies.

Wes Clark endorsed Hillary the other day, is Clark and Hillary traitors? They both have said we cannot completely leave Iraq? I disagree very much with that, but what will saying that Hillary and Clark are betraying our country get us?

We are still a very divided country

The reality is, unless the Democrats take back the white house, and Congress, it doesn't matter, and we have only one last chance to do it, and that s 2008, otherwise we will have lost the supreme court completely, and probably the country for decades.

That does not mean that the Democrats in Congress should not do their job which includes repealing the IWR, and stop funding this war. Yes, bush could veto any bill that calls for withdrawal, but Congress does NOT have to give in either. In other words, even if they cannot over-ride the veto, they can continue to send the same bill to bush, until either he signs it, or he is out of office

That is how you deal with this problem, not by name calling, but action
