I already know that Daily Kos supports the Fighting Dems for 2006 (and this is great).
I know that many "Kossiaks" are also "Clarkies" (this is wonderful)
But this is for all the new people that have joined since this site has become the biggest thing to hit the Internets since the Dancing Hamsters!
I want to bring attention to General Wes Clark -- http://www.securingamerica.com
What are his positions on issues?
Restore American Leadership Abroad
Lay out a concrete success strategy for Iraq; win the war on terror.
Combat global threats by fostering global cooperation and maintaining
moral stature abroad.
Create Jobs in America
Invest in strenghtening America's homeland security, provide relief
for state and local governments, and provide targeted tax credits for
job creation.
Revitalize America's manufacturing and technology sector by bringing jobs back to the United States.
Repeal Bush's tax giveaways for the wealthy and use the money to
create jobs.
Promote Long-Term Growth
Reduce the deficit so that we are not passing an enormous debt on to our children.
Cut government waste, end corporate welfare, internationalize the Iraq
effort, and repeal Bush's tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans -- those
making more than $200,000 annually.
Universal Access to Health Insurance
All Americans deserve excellent, affordable health care.
Provide tax credits for health insurance premiums.
Increase the value of health spending by employing the latest research
and technology to increase quality while reducing costs.
Invest in Education
Establish universal preschool for all 4-year-olds so that all children
enter kindergarten prepared to learn.

liberties that define our nation.
Review the Patriot Act and eliminate provisions that compromise the
rights of law-abiding Americans.
