Democrats Speak Up

It looks like the democrats, even Establishment and DLC'ers, have started to get a backbone.

Refering to Bush about not firing FEMA director Brown. "Oblivious. In denial. Dangerous,"
"Americans should now harbor no illusions about the government's ability to respond effectively to disasters," "Our vulnerabilities were laid bare." Nancy Pelosi

"It's a summary of all that this administration is not in touch with and has faked and ducked and bobbed over the past four years. What you see here is a harvest of four years of complete avoidance of real problem solving and real governance in favor of spin and ideology." John Kerry

"Our government failed at one of the most basic functions it has - providing for the physical safety of our citizens," Evan Bayh

"The Democratic Party needs a new direction," he said. "And I think it's become clear what the direction is: restore a moral purpose to America. Rebuild America's psyche." "This is deeply disturbing to a lot of Americans, because it's more than thousands of people who get killed; it's about the destruction of the American community," "The idea that somehow government didn't care until it had to for political reasons. It's appalling." Howard Dean
