character

Is it unpatriotic when Pelosi, Reid, Dodd and all the democrats who voted yes to go to Iraq, to condem the war?

Is Obama Monday morning quarterbacking when he did not vote for or against the Iraq war because he was not in the Senate yet?

Do you remember how the Democrats labeled Pres. Bush? Do you remember the rumors started by Democrats regarding the oil deals and how he got through college?

Is it fair to start discussing how Obama got through college?
