AS WE SAID HERE

Oregon's Democrat Governor says Kerry et. al. need to shut up about pulling out of Iraq.

Kulongoski said he feared that fellow Democrats might push for the return home of U.S. troops too soon.

“I think the American military needs to have a presence in Iraq,” he said. “I do believe we need to be there, both for the political stability of the country and the economic recovery of the country.”

The story also includes this curious quote as well.

Peter Bergel, executive director of Oregon PeaceWorks in Salem, agreed that troops can’t be rushed back home.

People in the peace movement always have warned that removing Saddam Hussein would lead to a long, costly and complicated rebuilding effort, he said.

"Have always warned?" Since when did anyone in your so-called peace movement ever step up the plate and say anything about Saddam, until GWB put him under the spotlight?

Show me.

UPDATE: Perhaps it would be good for someone to make this TV Commercial
