No, Mr. President, what is "disgusting" is the erosion of our democratic institutions that is taking place on your watch. Wasting the Senate''s time on a vote condemning MoveOn is just another example of how freedom of speech is being repressed by those in power today. In a democracy, the people have a duty to hold their representatives accountable. Why aren''t our Senators working to restore our democracy?

As far as Kerry is concerned check his record before the Congress when the little ***** threw away his medals and told Congress our military consisted of murderers and killers. Some patriot.

You don''''t publicly, without justification, denounce a general in the U.S. military. Its an insult to the general, but even more to the military and this very country he represents.

However in this case MoveOn.org was right and therefore had justification to insult him. The General shot himself in the foot by ceasing to be a General and becoming Bush''s political whipping boy and MoveOn called him on it. Works for me.
