Well, you've got me there. I've done little but complain about the war myself, but I freely admit (being an independent) that I don't see the Democrats doing much. They have proposed a withdrawal by autumn of 2008, but other than that... not much. Personally, I'd be happy to see some justice done on our end (impreachment for Bush for lying and incompetence, imprisonment for Cheney using the war for financial gain for his cronies), but I really don't see how we can just pull out. That would leave a serious power vacuum, and with us out of the picture, we'd have no control over who fills that vacuum. It is hard to say what the right thing to do is now. We shouldn't be there in the first place. Getting into the war was stupid. Pulling out might be even worse. We're there now. Hopefully we can finish the job and get those soldiers back home. Until we get some competent leadership, however, I have my doubts.

Really many of the democrats are just opposing the war through speaking against it, but are probably for it. For a new world order or world government to be formed the middle east and its leaders have to be on board with the world leaders. Expect many forced changes in middle east leaders within the next 5 years regardless of who is in office, Hillary or McCain. For this to work the world super power, ie the USA has to do a lot of the foot work...invading. Also, this can not work if one party is complety opposed to it. While the democrats say they oppose the war, it is political spin. Many only oppose it in speech rather than practice. Don't expect anything substantial to come from the democrats to stop the war. They will probably pass bills but it will be vetoed by the President or will be ruled unconstitutional by the Supreme Court.

The Democrats better step-up and show some backbone. Apparently the majority of the country wants a clean plan to be enforced. Just like many Republicans were handed their "Pink Slips", last November; the same thing can occur to the Democrats. It's "We the People"; not the gutless, or Machiavellians.

well.....the daily average killing of Americans in Iraq is about 3.soleder.
625 American committed suicide since the war began,all this for the sake of Israel,to protect Israel take it or leave,we are fueling your economy not the Arabs so you have to pay the price,America with out Israel is nothing,so continue sending your boys to Iraq and later receive them dead, isn't that true guys,listen guys am an American and that's how i look at things these days,off course am not Jewish but a Jewish person used to be my friend telling exactly what i have mentioned above,but thank God that the situation in Iraq is F-up and Iran is stronger than ever,I think this war will not end sooner it will spread out and it will reach Israel,Now Israel can run but it can not hide and the formula is like this 400 Million Red Eyes Muslims over 3.5 Jews, dose it work for Israel,,,I don't think so.....!!!!!!!

Yes they are, they are being cowards!
They want to subvert the war effort without actually taking a stand on anything.
If they actually wanted to stop the war they would defund the effort as they did in the 70's. If they did that they know they would be responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands.
They want to undermine our troops but remain blameless. That is the definition of cowardice.

Bush requested 4400, read your source, democrats(drop the at the end) and the majority of the US want this to stop. Problem is Bush is the commander and chief, too many republicans in the senate to kill his veto.
