He doesn't want to get ahead of message. I have absolutely no doubt that Webb will get around to talking about the subject; and it won't be no bullet talking point, it'll be his honest opinion after serious forethought.<BR/><BR/>This guy is a dead serious man; and he means what he says and says what he means; and until he's decided the best option, he keeps his mouth shut.Howling Latinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16275115451009946868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30821890.post-1153622811821290942006-07-22T22:46:00.000-04:002006-07-22T22:46:00.000-04:00Oh, F.T.

I'll stick to practicing my prose.

Now, it seems Feld wants his usually obedient Raising Kaine flock to lay off the Israel vs. her neighbors issues. Perhaps he doesn’t want the comments sections of the RK/Webb blogging team to catch fire with pro- and anti-Israeli craziness. <BR/><BR/>And, I can understand that. <BR/><BR/>So, Feld, the guru, says with a slight-of-hand -- if the issue is too complex for him then it’s useless for the rest of us to even bother. Hubris being used as a distraction? <BR/><BR/>Behind the curtain, it seems Feld and others have decided the issue can’t help Netroots candidates in the 2006 election. But it could hurt them. I can understand that, as well.<BR/><BR/>The irony is that I like Jim Webb, and I agree with Kos, Feld et al, on many issues. However, sometimes their tactics rub me the wrong way. Ask yourself this -- when did a bona fide liberal ever say important political issues shouldn’t be discussed?F.T. Reahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02042465274190082050noreply@blogger.com
