Litmus test for president in 2008?
Heard this on a radio show, that perhaps we should have a litmus NOT to support anyone who does not have a specific plan and time table to get out of Iraq.

My litmus test is even stronger, I will NOT vote for anyone for president that gave bush the authority to go into Iraq, or does NOT have a specific solution and timetable to get out

1. thats all noble and stuff.............
but I am so desperate to get rid of the * crime family, that I would vote for Homer Simpson if he could win. I know we should have values and a litmus test sounds fine......but if the pukes retain control for another four or eight years we are fucking done. Using your test we won't have anyone to vote for me thinks.....time will tell.

2. first of all
Homer was against the war, so I have no problem with that

in all seriousness though that was the logic that screwed us in Viet Nam. I understand and respect your reasoning, but one thing this country does NOT need is an endless war until 10 years later, and 60000 young lost you realize it was a mistake
