I will never call the Democratic party unpatriotic, but I will call their current leadership unfit to face the serious challenge of the 21st century. This is not about who is patriotic. We have got 435 voting patriotic Members of this body. This is about whether the American people trust a Churchill or a Chamberlain to lead this fight, a Reagan or a McGovern during the Cold War. This is about whether they trust George W. Bush or the appeasement wing of the Democratic party. That is what the debate is about.
