Lunatic left? Who? John Murtha lifelong conservative Marine hero? John Kerry common sense centrist-progressive honest war hero? Joe Biden top foreign affairs expert and centrist progressive? Or moderates like Levin and Feinstein? These are the main Dem leaders speaking out. There is not a leftist amongst them. Feingold would come the closest and he's about as smart, honest and down-to-earth as they come. He happens to be a dove. So what? What's so great about costly wars and hundreds of thousands of people dying and being dismembered? You guys are the lunatics. You support un-Christian policies, greed and arrogance, propaganda over facts, spin over substance, smear campaigns of American heros, failed policies favoring the very rich, gross corruption and incompetent running of the government. You support deficit spending to the moon with no oversight. You support election fraud and stamping down of civil liberties. You are either just plain ignorant or a dishonest disgrace to your country.

Saddam ends hunger strike after missing one meal Reuters ^ \| June 23, 2006 BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Saddam Hussein ended a brief hunger strike after missing just one meal in his U.S.-run prison, a U.S. military spokesman said on Friday. The former Iraqi leader had refused lunch on Thursday in protest at the killing of one of his lawyers by gunmen, but the spokesman said he ate his evening meal. Former Saddam aides being held in the same prison had refused to eat three meals since Wednesday evening but ended their fast with the ex-president. "They all took their dinner meal," the spokesman told Reuters. Saddam is on trial for crimes against humanity for his role in the 1982 killing of 148 Shi'ites in Dujail. His lead counsel, Khalil al-Dulaimi, has blamed pro-government Shi'ite militias for the murder of his deputy Khamis al-Obaidi on Wednesday.
