From the "Credit where it's due" file…

Obama's exactly right. If you respect the sacrifice and service of the American military...

"...The way to honor that service is to give them a mission that is responsible, not to vote on amendments like the Cornyn amendment while we continue to pursue the wrong policy in Iraq.”

The most principled vote on the ridiculous measure was, perhaps, the one Senator Obama cast with his feet.

I think the ad was dumb…

… and that it not only failed to move the meter an inch toward withdrawal, but simply fed the beast we're battling.

Just the same, Darryl's right.

Does anybody believe…

…that the Move On ad, or the boorish behavior of the Code Pink crowd or the serial self-martyrdom of St. Cindy will bring the war to an end one day sooner, one death sooner?

What a waste of time, cash and talent.
