Way to turn the heat up, Michelle!

Rumsfeld chose to come out and drop the “A-bomb” in a speech so he — and his supporters — should be able to start saying who they are talking about.

Kirsten, I have two words for you: Jack Murtha.

OK, two more: Ned Lamont.

Ok, just two more, same ones Bill gave you: Howard Dean. Here he is talking about how Bush hasn’t done anything about Iran. Oh, and he thinks Rummy was attacking voters, so take that for what it’s worth. But he doesn’t have a plan other than John Kerry’s failed “We’re gonna do something different!” plan. He does seem to have some ideas about stopping the “Republican War on America’s Families”. Oh wait, no he doesn’t. I think he just wanted to say “Republican War on America’s Families”.

At some point, conservatives are going to have to come to terms with the fact that there are Democrats who clearly see the threat of terrorism, but just simply don’t agree with the way the President has handled the war in Iraq.

They’re doing a lousy job of demonstrating that seriousness. If you think there’s a real terrorism threat, and then complain about things like the Terrorist Surveillance Program it doesn’t ring true. The problem with the discourse falls mostly on the left side of the aisle with those who have decided that everything the Bush Administration does, has done or will ever do is a crime and an affront to America. The unceasing criticism is never constructive, it’s only destructive and it’s always partisan.

If it’s just about bad strategy in Iraq, tell us what the good strategy we should be using is. “Something different!” is not good enough. We know Democrats want a new direction, on pretty much everything. What is it? And why won’t the Democrat leaders tell us what it is?
