third way Manny, but the news about our former SoS'
e-mail problems don't allow for that,

because I feel really sh;tty about the problems this causes
for our POTUS.

First he has to defend his immigration decision in court.,
then he has to put Bibi in place without offending all of
Israel, and now he has to defend his e-mails to the former
SoS, since they were not secured apparently.

Sorry, Manny, I don't mind Obama getting grey, but I hoped
that his hair would not turn white yet, inspite of his efforts
to sell us the TPP.

A Democrat is anyone registered as a Democrat. A democrat can be anyone. Agnosticsherbet Mar 2015 #2

That's exactly the fancy talk that loses elections MannyGoldstein Mar 2015 #8

That is Democratic Party rules and grammar. Agnosticsherbet Mar 2015 #10

Well said. rhett o rick Mar 2015 #48

Don't forget Jesse Helms, and Ben Nighthorse Campbell from Colorado, Art_from_Ark Mar 2015 #80

No, they left the party because democratic ideals changed (See the small "d") Agnosticsherbet Mar 2015 #88

Thurmond was a racist who stormed out of the Party over D support of Civil Rights. kevin.xiii Mar 2015 #112

OK. How about Condi Rice, Ben Nighthorse Campbell, Paul Wolfowitz, Rick Perry, or this guy? RufusTFirefly Mar 2015 #120

Fred Phelps Mnpaul Mar 2015 #119

What a shame! We should've moderated our views and welcomed him back. RufusTFirefly Mar 2015 #121

So you agree with the OP, all Ted Cruz or even Cheney for that matter, needs to be welcome to sabrina 1 Mar 2015 #68

To join the Democratic Party (proper noun) they only need to register. Agnosticsherbet Mar 2015 #89

I think we basically agree then. However to some people just the letter after a name is enough to sabrina 1 Mar 2015 #108

What about those in states that no longer register by party? Angleae Mar 2015 #127

heee! . .. ... . .n/t annabanana Mar 2015 #3

Besides, Ted Cruz is a better choice than Donald Trump. arcane1 Mar 2015 #4

At least we know for sure where Cruz' hair is actually connected to his head. n/t. Ken Burch Mar 2015 #19

Sure but what if Donald Trump joins the party? zeemike Mar 2015 #22

He'd capture the squirrel vote. L0oniX Mar 2015 #34

Are you saying a squirrel might mistake his hair for another squirrel? Enthusiast Mar 2015 #110

Yes!! Trump/Palin '16! LiberalLovinLug Mar 2015 #97

that whole argument is absolutely nuts Capn Sunshine Mar 2015 #51
