Novel idea! Now pls tell us oh great all knowing one, when are the Democrats going to get a plan and platform and get back in power so that they get to tell the Generals to do?

We all know that you guys are dying to do it but are so confused that years after losing for the second time in a major election the Democratic party is still simply flowing downstream, instead of even trying to make some headway in the country. Course with HOWARD DEAN at the helm that will make things right! Correct?

You know, like the Democrats did in Vietnam when they controlled the military down to the level of when every solder could wipe their rear? There are even photos of Johnson and his cronies planning air strikes in the WH, when they had not the slightest idea of what they were doing.

The retired Generals have had a plan or idea for years, its just in the last 10-15 years that the networks started hiring them as "consultants" and they came to light. Very few of them just "fade away" and most are picked up on the board of directors of various military defence companies, where they sponge off the gravy train in both Democratic and Republican admins.

Better dig deeper in that bag of tricks Techie, its getting a bit thin these days!
