Democrats are not going to deserve to win the White House until they develop, in their own guts, the convictions that they try to convey in their policy statements. Think of this situation: the Dems are begging the only person in the history of the Air National Guard to relinquish his pilot's license voluntarily, who checked the "No" Box when asked if he would serve overseas and who decided on his own which military regulations he would follow, to muzzle a man who, when called to defend his country, asserted he had "other priorities", from attacking their patriotism! It is hard to know which is more pathetic, the Cheney attack or the Democrats' response.

Instead of reinforcing Cheney's scurrilous remarks by begging their dismissal, Democrats should have attacked his policy in Iraq that emboldens al-Qaeda: weakened our military, recruited more terrorists than we kill (source: Memo from the Greatest Defense Secretary in US--or world, or interplanetary?---History), strengthened Iranian influence in the region, refused to send 600 Army Rangers to kill Osama bin Laden when we had him surrounded in Tora Bora, and allowed al-Qaeda to re-establish itself in the Afghan-Pakistani border region. Every time we add troops in Iraq, we diminish the effort against the real enemy.
