Real Leadership - Jim Webb Gives Democratic Response to SOTU

Newly elected VA Senator Jim Webb gave the Democratic response to Bush's State of the Union speech.

In no uncertain terms, Webb let it be known that if Bush does not begin, in his 6th year in office, to lead this country responsibly, the Democrats are ready and able to step up to the plate.

ThinkProgress has outstanding coverage of the SOTU speech.

One additional note. We applaud Bush for spotlighting the genocide currently going on in the Darfur region of Sudan, and urge him and Congress to do more than talk about it and actually take some action. We also encourage our readers to check out the websites of organizations like Save Darfur and The International Rescue Committee to see what you can do to help.
