You think I haven't attacked "Bush's various statements on foreign policy"??? You ever read much of anything I post here at DU? Or been to my own blog, the last link in my signature?

Unfortunately, our nominee for 2008 doesn't get to run against Bush. Not directly. Attacking him still has its place, if only because the Repub front-runners (none of whom I expect to get their nomination, but nevermind) seem to be supporting the same approach. But it's not pertinent to the subject of this thread.

I'm not asking that any presidential candidate be perfect. Good thing, because NONE of them are. Nor have I ever said that any of them, even the guy I support most, is. But I truly believe, as strongly and passionately as I know how, that any Democrat who cannot inspire confidence on national security issues will NEVER beat any Republican in the general election. YMMV, but that is my opinion, and I will write about it as much as I wish.
