Arianna’s posters have done ad after ad for Obama, even as he steals Edwards’ issues and attacks his union supporters. I have NO respect for Obama, and I do think Dodd would make a great VP for Edwards.</p> Edwards is the true netroots candidate and in my humble opinion it’s a damn shame more netroots sites didn’t endorse him out loud.

The righties will tell you that the media lost the war because of the way they portrayed it to the American people.</p> Yea, and citing that it was “all over the news” is a bit shaky.

Hell, he went to Vietnam as a civilian to work with kids wounded. When he came home he had so much rage bottled up he found himself dragging people out of cars and kicking their asses for nothing. The notion that guys that just got out of the shit would just take getting spit on is just silly.</p> Read “Remembering Heavens Face” by John Balaban.
