Blame the Democrats part II

[Chris Kromm]

More evidence of the Democratic Party's descent into inanity and
irrelevance. Has *anyone* suggested Iraq has an "A-bomb" that may "go off"
in this country? What the hell is Gephardt talking about?? Thank god the
good people of Iowa are keeping the heat on these turkeys (note their
grilling of Tom Harkin a few days back).

War opponents grill Gephardt on his Iraq vote

Sioux City, Ia. -- Sioux City Democrats pointedly challenged U.S. Rep. Dick
Gephardt's support for a Bush administration resolution on Iraq, adding some
unexpected tension Sunday to the Democratic presidential candidate's visit
to western Iowa.

"I'm seeing this as another Vietnam. How many of our young people aren't
going to come home?" asked Ginny Duncan, a retired antique store owner.
"We've authorized the president to do war if he wants to, even my Democratic
Party."

Replied Gephardt: "Nobody wants war. Nobody wants anybody to lose their
life. But I don't want to wake up, have an A-bomb go off in this country and
say we didn't do what we should have done."
