Many people will think this is somewhat hyprocritical since the GOP have led the world league tables for negative campaigns and advertising bordering on slander. That said, I think there should be more rigid public standards to reduce it and I also think Mr McCain is better than most with regard to campaigning with integrity (although I oppose him wholeheartedly on US Iraq policy).

Well at least all the important dems that can bash the republicans on general election made it. GO Hillary Go Obama Go Biden. Biden Your Iraq plan was smart. you need to get up there with Hillary and Obama.

Where is my invintation ? Bah as long you can bring America back what impotant to me. There is no hope that the republicans will do it still sleeping in there dream world fantcizing how to spend my billions made.

If it was not Bush's fault for the incompetent prosecution of the Iraq War, then it must have been the generals and among them Gen. Petraeus.
Gen. Petraeus wrote the manual for dealing with insurgents and he says you need one soldier for every 40 civilians which means we need 600,000 troops in Iraq to do the job right. And we have now 160,000 troops Iraq. We're short 440,000 troops and Gen. Petraeus is saying he can do the job with only those 160,000, that's BS and you know it.
The General's, including Petraeus forgot that even though Bush, the Commander-in-Chief is their superior, their ultimate responsibility is to the American People not the President.
You and your fellow Republican Senators and Congressmen have also forgotten that fact.
So I say "Right On" "Move On".
Senator McCain stop trying to make our generals "Sacred Cows" their human like the rest of us.

Thought Kuchinich was a vegetarian? What would he want at a Steak Fry, anyway?

Tom Harkin has been one of the best examples of bought and paid for Washington Shills. Of course he would only invite those of his ilk.
