It means that, in a markedly undemocratic polity, where two-thirds
of an unrepresentative Congress supports shameful foreign wars -
while two-thirds of the populace oppose them - we'd be equally wrong
to think of Democrats as friends as to think of Republicans as
enemies. <br>
<br>
In the House of Representatives, one of the few principled opponents
of those wars is a favorite of the teapartiers.<br>
<br>
(And did you notice that Rep. Tim Johnson [R-IL15] spoke for and
voted in favor of Kucinich's resolution?) <br>
