Hey dopey, Do you know how to read? "The vast majority of desertions happen inside the USA, Robbins says. There is only one known case of desertion in Iraq."

"Yes, 8,000 troops have deserted under Bush in Iraq. Apologize to the thread for continuing to lie by denying this obvious fact reported by the reliable non-partisan USA Today." Sorry, but saying that lie over and over again isn't going to make it come true. You are truly an idiot.

Identity crisis "Will Rogers rides again. The Dust Bowl era humorist, who once famously said, 'I don't belong to any organized party. I'm a Democrat,' would feel right at home in his party today," New York Daily News columnist Michael Goodwin writes. "President Bush and the GOP hold all the cards in Washington, and what a mess they've made of it. It's a situation ripe for big Democratic gains in the fall elections, and early polls show the public leaning heavily the Dems' way in generic matchups," Mr. Goodwin said. "At least that was the case before [Tuesday's] Washington Post reported the disarray among party leaders about how to seize the opportunity. Some of the details look like outtakes from a Rogers' comedy routine. "After saying the leaders keep pushing back the release date for their legislative proposals, from last November to 'a matter of weeks' from now, Post reporters found the reasons: Democrats can't agree on what they stand for! The mucky-mucks can't decide whether to run nationalized campaigns or stress local issues. And they can't decide the right balance between attacking Bush and pushing their own ideas. "The latter, of course, is hard to do if you don't know what those ideas are. "Not to worry, Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada told the paper: 'By the time the election rolls around, people are going to know where Democrats stand.' "That's a relief. Mark your calendars, ladies and gentlemen. Only seven months to go until we learn what the party believes in."
