Have We Ended the War Yet?

We haven't even put a dent in it. It's arguable that the laughably low approval rating the public gives the Democratic-run Congress is attributable to that body's failure to move the ball one inch down the field. Worse, the Democratic leadership has looked feckless, confused, spineless and outmaneuvered at every turn by the administration and its Republican allies, frightened though the latter may be to be tied to the war come next election day. Today, the Politico echoes what Mike Gravel contended in the Dartmouth debate -- the Congressional Dems could do far more to stop the war...if they wanted to.
