Finally, a glimmer of light peeps out from the dark corners of the Far Left…In a rare moment of honesty and clairvoyance Democrats.com sees that Moveon.Org members are essentially a bunch of liars and that Pelosi is holding a “porkfest” to get votes for her amendment.For once- Democrats.com today speak ” to Power”:More Dishonesty from MoveonSubmitted by Bob Fertik on March 20, 2007 – 4:40pm.
Now, here is a man that is more than just a politician…And, he’s not out selling his vote for pork.(BTW Eric Cantor has more on pork eating democrats.)Joe Lieberman asserts correctly that their is no democrat running today who is “very strong and muscular on foreign and defense policy.”Funny, Think Progress lumps this interview under their “radical right wing agenda” category.

Although the country’s sacrifice was much greater in 1864 than it is today, the democratic platform remains unchanged.Today’s democrats are much like the copperheads of 1864 who wanted to quit then, too.This picture from a famous Thomas Nast illustration that exposed the hypocrisy of the 1864 Democratic Platform….While totally undermining the Union Army, and what it was trying to do, the Chicago Platform went on to allege its support of the individual soldiers and their families.

Less than two weeks after suggesting that American troops focus on fighting only “al-Qaeda in Iraq”…Democrats are now proposing that US troops abandon Iraq to focus on the “real” War on Terror that is Afghanistan!Speaker Pelosi wants to fight the real war on terror in Afghanistan.(3:28 minutes- “focus on the real war on terror” at 3:00 minute mark)Unreal!But, please don’t question their cluelessness!

The cost of war may be a big talking point for democrats but do they have any idea what they’re talking about?
The AP claims that the people just “shrug off” the massive graft and corruption at City Hall.Could it be because all of the crooks are democrats?The AP reports:A mayor (Richard Daley-democrat) overseeing an administration under federal investigation.
