And you sound like a 42 year old idiot in a trailer park in Alabama trying to justify a war that is based on lies and exploitation of the events on 9/11. Iraq had no WMD other than the ones WE GAVE HIM and no ties to Al Queda. Saddam HATED terrorists and had supreme rule over his lands through terror.

You sound like a fucking sheep. I bet you watch Fox News right? Only explanation. People who actually educate themselves on the war, and not watch Fox, know the war is BS and not a 'liberation'.

@v19d Well the Democrats lost the house. Lets see if I'm right in 2012

[MisterBoneman]

this guy is so current, even from two years past.

Amazing!

Great men sometimes aren't noted better until after a time, their words remain as relevant as this man's words do.

One of my regrets is registering as a Democrat of Course I did it as a protest and so that some Million something Americans last time around switch to the Democrats believeing they would do a better job and even voting in the primary as a sign. I believe the recent Health Law in the USA will result in Democrats losing Congress in a landslide in 2010 even the Senate in 2010 then will lose more Senate Seats and more in Congress in 2012 even lose the White House possibly for the Next 40 years.

???I like Ron Paul, but how in the hell would he have won? Don't you learn anything?

Only neocons and neoliberals can win because only they can raise the hundreds of millions of dollars funneled via powerful corporations to their campaigns? They would not have let Pat Buchanan or Jerry Brown or Jesse Jackson win either. Only controlled candidates CAN win. Dole and Kerry and McCain were rather boring and had little grassroots fundraising or support among activists, but that was who you got

[monsterminds2]

I would luv to see Chuck Hagel in an Obama administration!

[mactos678]

Hagel and Ron paul would have not only won, but they would have made this country great again, the true republican way.

Well, he didn't choose Hagel, he choose Hagel's brother Joe Biden... Figuratively his brother... I don't even think he was vetted, but don't be surprised if Hagel becomes either Obama's Secretary of State or Secretary of Defense...

[PARKEREAL]

with arms wide open from a cliff.lol no way he must pick a dem, man or hillary she is the only other minority that maybe could work, as a rule one minority at a time it must be a dem though

[bathalax]

hello everybody. i just want to ask any democrat here thinks if Obama chooses Hagel as his VP, will he be met with open arms by the Democratic party?

thanks.
