i think this is primarily an ultra-right issue. if you look at the actual history of it--you know, what actually happened, how this "issue" came to be packaged as it now is--and there's a salon article i posted earlier in the thread that does exactly that---you will see, that this is story is entirely of conservative manufacture.
and for the record, i have mostly contempt for the democratic party. collectively, it's only consistent virtue is that it's not republican and not part of the conservative media-space that you, for example, seem to inhabit thoroughly. i am personally neither interested in nor surprised by various democrats saying nonsense about this "issue"...alot of those same heroic democrats caved in before the bush administrations entirely fabricated cases for war too.
centrists. no spine at all.
