Our policy since 9/11 has been driven by radically liberal neoconservatives who have shown little regard for history or any ability for good judgement.

So why can't we have this debate? It seems to be Bush's way or the highway...but is this good for America?

Who on the Democratic side would you propose to enage in this debate? Democratic leadership like Howard Dean? In all seriousness who on the Democratic side will put aside partisanship long enough to conduct a debate that would lead to results that are actually good for America as a whole? If they are out there their voices have been drowned out by the far left types who thankfully to date do not have an influence on National Security.
