[Peace-discuss] Durbin's courage

[C. G. Estabrook]

Courage? Really? We haven't seen much.

I'll be waiting for his brave anti-war/anti-torture/anti-
incarceration statements.  I hope we don't have to wait too
long.  --CGE

>I agree w/ you Al.  Durbin is standing 'way too alone on 'way
too many issues, and we should support it when he has the
courage to speak up.  The apology started out well enuff --
Sorry IF I OFFENDED..... It was NOT MY INTENTION..... Yes, I
wish he hadn't said it was a poor choice of words, but
instead, had reiterated that he was quoting the fibbies, AI,
In'l Red Cross, etc.  It's just like AWOL Bush shooting down
60 minutes.  They don't spend million$ on PR for nothing.....

>And isn't it so frustrating that the Bushies can lie and lie
and lie, and that's what sticks, rather than luke warm
apologies or excuses that nobody pays attention to.  And the
Sect'y of Educat'n can call NEA members -- i e  most public
school teachers -- "Terrorists" -- and nobody makes a stink
over that????
