Democrats just let Cheney & bush* lie for a whole week
without a rebuttal. Cheney & bush* have been saying all week that Iraq and Al Qaeda have had links and I have not heard Kennedy, Byrd, Pelosi, Biden or any of the dem pimps shouting them down. This country is totally fucked if there are no opposition voices. And what is Kerry waiting for, December?

1. You mean outside of the 9/11 commission saying they're full of shit?
Since the 9/11 commission is a bipartisan commission, Americans will believe it more than if the Democrats pointed out Bush is full of shit. Why should the Democrats beat a dead horse, when the media will continue to talk about the 9/11 Commission's discovery that Cheney and Bush are lying about connections between AQ and SH?

4. I agree with you on that one.
Everytime the dems open their mouth the repubs scream "Partisan politics in an election year!" (Well, duh!) but they have enough qualified individuls and some in the media to call them out on these lies and the dems can just sit back and watch this administration squirm and try to use more lies to cover up the already told lies.

5. They will spin the commision. They need to be confronted by the
democrats. It's not a dead horse when they are lying NOW. Cheney has had his face all over the tv this week. When no one counters what he says, people only hear the lie. Mind you, over 30% think that Saddam was 'in' on 911. That is because of cheney & bush* continual lying on this point. Lies sink in as well as truth.

2. The media has actually been on this one
I'm shocked. I've seen several stories in mainstream sources, paticularly CBS and the NY Times, who have pointed out their lies.

7. It's really pretty hopeless with the GOP control of the media
hte to be negative but Dems just can't beat the "GOP Noise Machine" to paraphrase David Brock. The country gets what it deserves. Low income people voting their resentments instead of their best interests. I have no compassion for idiots.

10. Can't blame the media anymore. The Dems are just being wimps.
Time to face the facts, make changes, or lose. It's that simple.

9. Granted, but this is no time to give in to their lies.
This will accelerate as the election draws near and we need to counter their shit. THIS IS THEIR MAIN REASON FOR WAR: Iraq/Al Qaeda. The results of the Commission should have the dems out in force reiterating these results.
