so the SOB is resorting to name calling and brow beating the people who are now siding with antiwar voters in Congress! To verbally assault these brave first Republicans who are realizing the human toll of their previous capitulation to *, is so typical.

Thug tactics. They're getting scared. They're getting angry. They're getting desperate.

They don't oppose the war because it is wrong and illegal, they oppose it because the polls turned negative and they are scared for their own skin.

(it's not the case with Sen. Warner, although he wasn't referring to him, obviously), but still, at least they are going against *, and that takes guts for these gutless congressman.
