It is now clear that the DSM is unstoppable. Everyone here and across the left blogosphere should be monumentally proud of this time. The tide isn't just turning, it is now roaring with anger in a whole new direction. We must fight on.
And here is another very strong example. Though not a wingnut, Chuck Hagel has now joined the ranks of the GOP who have damn well had enough.
Up on Raw Story, via US News and World Report, this is Reported:
Sen. Chuck Hagel is angry. He's upset about the more than 1,700 U.S. soldiers killed and nearly 13,000 wounded in Iraq. He's also aggravated by the continued string of sunny assessments from the Bush administration, such as Vice President Dick Cheney's recent remark that the insurgency is in its "last throes." "Things aren't getting better; they're getting worse. The White House is completely disconnected from reality," Hagel tells U.S. News. "It's like they're just making it up as they go along. The reality is that we're losing in Iraq."
How beautiful is this. Oh sure, the never-say-die freepers will say RINO, or whatever...but this is huge. This is TREASON to the neoocons, by a very influential one of their own.
Take heart fellow warriors; we are winning and our cause is just. Taking this with the Palm Desert column calling for imprisonment for war crimes...I am just giddy.
I am now very glad that Bush got another term, however so it was attained. This is SO much fun to watch Bush self-destruct and go down in history with the worst of the worst.
I wish I believed in Hell just so I knew he would burn in it for his crimes.
