I didn't see you answered me

Sorry David, I had a terrific amount of virus fixing over the weekend. I just put out the same kind of thing to David Swanson. Those folks have been working so hard for so long on tough things. I'm really glad he joined us here.
And while I'm at it, this is a little bit of Tennessee chat. Swanson and the downingstreetmemo crowd keep telling us when someone signs onto HR333. Steve Cohen signed on both against Cheney and Gonzales (Is Gonsales articles of impeachment? I need to check.) Well, Steve Cohen has the House seat vacated by Harold Ford Jr. I think what happened in Memphis is something similar to what happened to your friend Chris Majors. I believe there were five or more African-Americans running in the primary. The one who came in just lower than Cohen was Nikki Tinker, who previously ran Ford's campaign. But the white got in! I was curious about him but didn't think too much would happen, until I got a note Nikki is going to run again. Still, that's politics. Then when Cohen came out for impeachment articles, I looked up his official page and found him to be a solid guy. Thought I'd tell you this, because you know how I like to highlight when Tennessee does something good, like producing two Albert Gore Senators and some other worthy folks.

I would leave no troops in Iraq whatsoever...The difference between me and the other candidates is, they would leave troops there indefinitely, and I would not.
