[lbo-talk] Noonan: the party pros hate their bases

[W. Kiernan]

The punch line to Noonan's rubbish is her smear of Howard Dean, and by 
extension, every real Democrat in the entire country.  The whole rest of 
her article is window dressing.  She distinguishes "Democratic leaders" 
and Howard Dean; I guess that the Chairman of the Democratic National 
Committee is something distinct from a "Democratic leader."  As far as 
us rank-n-file antiwar Dems, we state the obvious fact that Bush's Iraq 
war was clearly bullshit from day one and, as we expected all along, it 
has since become a pointless and horrific meat-grinder; because we 
audibly object to shoving both American G.I.s and the civilian 
population of Iraq through that meat-grinder, ergo, we're all stark 
raving mad.  Fuck you, Peggy.
