Well, I Have A Message For The

Stroke Of The Pen. Law Of The Land. Kinda Cool.

Defining The Terms Of The Debate Generally Dictates Who's Gonna' Win It.

The Bush Republicans' Policies Are, The Antithesis Of Patriotic. And So We Urge Democrats To Reclaim Patriotism - To Call On All Americans To Pull Together. And, Yes, To Sacrifice. Rich People Will Have To Do With Fewer Tax Cuts. Middle Class People Will Need To Drive Less And Switch To More Fuel Efficient Cars . And Poor Folks - Especially Young Ones - Will Have To Reduce Out-of-wedlock Pregnancies And Other Indicia Of Social Pathology.

It Seems To Me The American People Never Really Forgave The Democrats For Being Right About Vietnam.

So One Important Lesson Of Vietnam Is, The First Casualty Of An Unwise And Unjust War Are The American Troops Called On To Fight It. Their Service Should Be Honored.
