Tom Hayden's perspective

< spawn of the mothership | Re: White Christian Republicans >

"The tide is turning. Public support for the war is down, as are the President's ratings. Anti-war Democrats are back. Military recruiting is hitting a wall. The US strategy of Iraqization is failing. ...The bad news is that the good news is so recent. For six long months, the media and the Democrats have given the President a free pass, and the anti-war movement has floundered. The war is not over -- we should remember that the Vietnam War continued for seven years after President Johnson was forced to resign."

I'm really impressed that Tom Hayden is still around, and still influencing things. Here he offers some advice to the left, and some interesting historical perspective on anti-war movements.
