Thanks for making an honest attempt.

Tell us all how Biden's plan is different than the one we are already working.

anomly, thanks.
I guess.
However, I didn't say the Democrats didn't have any plans. That would be One_American who said that.
Repeatedly.

You wouldn't happen to be a member of Biden's staff would you?

To One_American:

Senator Joseph Biden (D-DE) has been talking strategy for months. Together with Leslie Gelb, President Emeritus of the Council on Foreign Relations, he's formed a specific, detailed plan to form regional governments in Iraq as part of a larger federal government. Read about it at: http://www.planforiraq.com

Sen. Biden is the only elected official who is talking, let alone drafting, real solutions to the quagmire in Iraq. David Yepsen, of the Des Moines Register highlighted the plan and Biden's speech in today's column:

So, I contest your point that there are no Democrats addressing Iraq or National Security. Take a look at Biden, a moderate, SENSIBLE Democrat. I think you'll find that he's taking a bipartisan perspective to our national security and foreign policy.

One_American---
I layed a challenge at your feet the other day on another article... you conveniently failed to respond... so I will reiterate my challenge:

Go to this web-site:
http://capwiz.com/dav/keyvotes.xc/?lvl=C

Scroll to the bottom, then select the sessions of congress and come back here and report one... JUST ONE, republican that has consistently voted favorably 100% of the time on legislation that had a direct impact on veterans and disabled veterans... I discount those several that were only recently appointed to fill vacant seats and voted on only one or two bills of the twenty some odd over the past 6 years... hardly enough to claim a voting record.
I counted over 150 Democrats that have voted 100% in favor of the vets... Now.. you tell me what party REALLY supports our vets..
The Republicans support the vets only to the extent that they can provide monetary profit to their friends... otherwise, the are just cannon fodder..

Oh.. and since you like to read so much... look up pnac on google and read how the conservatives PLANNED the overthrow of Iraq, by force if necessary, back in the fall of 2000.... before 9-11... They were so proud of their "paper", they published it... then look at who the founding fathers of pnac were...

God is forgiving, and I'm sure He will forgive you too...

Stop spamming One American - here are the answers.

What is the Democrat's plan to secure the peace in Iraq...?

WIN BACK THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY TO RESTORE PEACE AND A STABLE GOVERNMENT. BUSH HAS ALIENATED THE WORLD. HOPEFULLY WE CAN IMPEACH HIM AND CHENEY.

Democrat's plan to fight terrorism?

GET BUSH FAMILY BUSINESS PARTNER - OSAMA BIN LADEN. REMEMBER HIM? HOLD THE SAUDIS RESPONSIBLE FOR TRAINING FANATICS - STOP CREATING NEW TERRORISTS LIKE WE HAVE IN IRAQ. 1,000 IRAQUIS KILLED IN IRAQ LAST MONTH. NO INFRASTRUCTURE.
NOW WONDER THEY HATE US!

North Korean nukes?

GEE - TOO LATE - TOO BUSY WITH IRAQ'S WMDs.

Iran?

DITTO AS RUSH WOULD SAY

..."not heard even ONE Democrat" ...

CHECK HEARING. BUSH RESPONDS TO IRAQ - "PROTECT MARRIAGE" - AGAINST WHAT? THAT IS HIS HATE-MONGERING DISTRACTION LINE. I GUESS WE MUST PROTECT MARRIAGE AGAINST RUSH AND NEWT - BOTH MULTIPLE DIVORCEES

...something besides Bush-bashing propaganda.

MAKE WALMART PAY FOR HEALTH INS.SO STATES DON'T, SUPPORT SCIENCE - STEM CELLS - DARWIN... GIVE OUR TROOPS WHAT THEY NEED BEFORE GOING TO WAR, END TAX BREAKS FOR THE TOP 1/2 OF 1 PERCENT AND FOR BIG OIL - SEND THE TWINS AND GEORGE P. BUSH TO IRAQ. IF WE ARE IN SUCH DIRE STRAIGHTS THEY SHOULD BE GLAD TO VOLUNTEER. STOP THE BUSH-BUDDY DIEBOLD CORRUPT ELECTION MACHINES. STOP NO-BID CONTRACTS. RESPOND TO NATIONAL EMERGENCIES RIGHT AWAY.....AND MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS ABOUT WHO I SLEEP WITH!!!!

You can't ride two horses with one derrier. RINO's like Chaffee are getting their due. Now it's time for Snowe and Collins to get their due. This is the year to clean out RINO's.

Oh, but don't worry. I'll be back.

I'll give you plenty of time to research your Dem leaders, to come up with what their plan is.

You might want to get started now.

See you all later!

Cut the cr@p, Democrats.

What is the Democrat's plan to secure the peace in Iraq and help them establish a Democracy?

What is the Democrat's plan to fight terrorism in the world today?

What is the Democrat's plan to deal with North Korean nuclear ambitions?

What is the Democrat's plan to deal with Iran's nuclear ambitions?

I have not heard even ONE Democrat explain how they would accomplish any of these goals.

You only have a few days to come up with something besides Bush-bashing propaganda.

Show America you really have a leg to stand on; or you will be voted down and cast as bad-mouthing, do-nothing, troop-bashing liberals and relegated to the trash-heap of history.

Not a sensible plan. Sorry.

ozilot: Those are not the real issues!

Those are DISTRACTIONS FROM THE REAL ISSUES. WITHOUT NATIONAL SECURITY, ALL THE OTHER ISSUES ARE MOOT.

I'll come back later and post my questions again. Must not be any people who can answer the questions here.

@One_American:

Who knows what the Democrat's plan will be, but let's put them in power and find out. Any plan has got to be better than what we've been getting from the current administration:
1. Largest national debt in history?
2. Hundreds of billions thrown away in a war of unprovoked aggression?
3. Creating more and more terrorists by killing innocents?
4. Failing to reform health care costs?
5. Failing to take action on illegal immigration?
6. Violation of constitutional rights?

Come on, all this has happened with the same party controlling the executive and legislative branches. They're plans are not working. Even no plan at all would be better.
