    Really?

    Glenn, I'd be interested in a list of legislation introduced by the Democrats that would have changed our current course. It's easy to blame the Reps, but absent a true alternative the Dems are just as culpable. I don't pretend to be truly informed here, though, so if there really has been legislation that would end the war, stop torture, stop rendition, re-institute habeas for all, etc., I'll feel better about the Dems. Heck, I don't even recall hearings into this stuff.
