in case you're new, i criticize democrats for not being tough or fast enough. this doesn't mean i support republicans and in fact it is because i think republicans are a threat to america that i dont think a mediocre democratic response apparatus is good enough.
i want the democrats to be so quick to the punch and so vicious that critics like me say "whoa, guys, that might be too much and a little over the line." we are nowhere remotely near that and its not even on the horizon for the near future.
oh and i dont think muting criticism until some unspecified future peace time is of any use. if you're in a war you don't wait until the war is over to tell your army that they're fighting the war wrong.
and as credentials or whatever i can say i have written about us politics for nearly 20 years now (launched my blog in late 2000) and was (more or less) the first staffer at the premiere progressive media watchdog where i exhaustively followed rw and mainstream media for 13yrs
