I watched some of the democratic candidates being interviewed on CSPAN last night. It would appear that we have a field of not only bright, but also decent cntenders this time. Hillary was actually, in my opinion, the lesser of the group. I was impressed with Christopher Dodd, that's the first time I have ever really listened to him, but John Edwards will probably get my vote.

The media attacks on Hillary are starting early.

Polls show the public already believes Democrats will do a better job on national security than the Republicans, so all your analysis from ancient history (which is mostly drawn from the stereotype and myth the Republicans have been peddling the last 40 years, not the reality) is already moot.

And as far as litmus test, Hillary can say what she wants, and as a voter I can reject her because her beliefs don't mirror mine on the subject of Iraq. So it looks like the candidates and the voters are all fine on our relationship and only you old-school media guys continue to get irritated at the public for not following your prescribed path to enlightenment...

Hillary Clinton is a US Senator.

Presumably, all US Senators had access to the information concerning the flawed intelligence provided by the CIA funded Iraqi National Congress and the Defense Department's hastily invented Office of Special Plans supervised by D. Rumsfeld and his staff.

Any Senator who did not closely scrutinize the intelligence they used as a basis for authorizing use of force should at a minimum, apologize for their gross dereliction of duty.

And, since the resolution did not actually authorize the use of force without another UN Security Council resolution authorizing use of force, she should at least step forward and say so.

Since she has not, it appears she doesn't even know what she voted for.

Hillary is little different than George Bush. The primary differences being she has testicles and cannot win a national election.

I think I may be a little late on this...

But if you really support the troops please watch "American Soldiers: A Day In Iraq".

I was able to watch this movie on the internet web site "Vongo". You may be able to find it in Blockbuster.
