The unhinged left includes the current leadership of the dem party. I attack the unhinged left and that includes current leadership of the dem party. I make direct and honest attacks on real unhinged people. All unhinged people make unhinged attacked on me. My comments on the google and the list was an aside amusing editorial comment on the dialog I observed between you and Mike. Kinda like the Nazi nurse comment. The foundation of all taunting is that the unhinged left includes the current leadership of the dem party. It's systemic. The restraint of the President and his administration is amazing. It fills me with pride and at times some frustration. The unhinged left evokes anger and disgust. The blindness and or matter of fact of so many to how unhinged democrats are is weird and fascinating.

Karen, By limiting the 'alleged slur' to Democratic members of Congress, Cohen is attempting to limit the damage. I am sure his staff did the same googling you did. What isn't shown is the 'Bush Lied..' posters at the DNC convention, comments from various party heads and the open invitation to the Moveon people to speak and accuse at party events and on national TV. Question - who exactly accused any particular Congressmen of this? Where is the quote? Isn't Cohen engaged in a misdirection ? BTW - When did Cohen stop beating his wife? :-) John

What is the difference between "intentionally mislead," cherry pick intelligence, and "lie?" The clear sense of the charges is that in a court he would be convicted of giving false testimony about the reasons for going to war, and consequently should be impeached. The charges by members of the opposition in Congress are not such that an apology would make everything good, seems to me. Admitting the charges would certainly mean the end of the presidency, as it should if they are proved true. If he deliberately misled us into war, misleading us about what he knew to be true about the intelligence offered him, he should resign or be impeached, simple as that. I don't believe it is true, but I do believe the charge is quite plain, regardless of how it is put.
