I'm tired of weak voiced, compromising, overly polite Dem politicians...
We keep losing and losing and losing......
what ticks me off on top of losing is losing without
the best fight possible. I want politicians as loud
and obnoxious as Newt Gingrich. I want politicians who
are angry, defiant and "not going to take it anymore!"

purging dems.

If you want a loud liberal, then get your ass out there and work to get one elected.

2. So...
Criticising our leadership is not ok.

Questioning whether we are snobs IS ok.

I didn't think freepers were dumb enough to donate.

15. Thanks Nordic.....
tantrums have their place. I just think I'll go mad if
for the next four years our politicians roll over and
play weak again.

16. Where's the fire, the passion, the outrage?
The religious right pretends/believes they have God on their side! When we have truth on ours where is the passion of our convictions?
I agree, Dems act too passive and apologetic for me!!! Why can't we get some ire up??? :bounce:
:eyes:

18. Scars? what are you talking about!
every passionate Democratic worker and contributer and voter
has been scarred in the last four years. Scars are all over
the place, hearts have bled and ache. If you don't see that
you are blind!

19. My 7 year old niece has scars like that
so does Kerry. He's not getting a pass for heartbreak, and neither will you.

Some me real scars, tough guy

20. "Show me real scars!" sounds like something from an old movie
and its rather stale.

I do wish our politicians would get out there and do
some things that might get them some scars!

21. Why dont you go first
Edited on Fri Nov-05-04 04:56 PM by sangh0
and show them how it's done, instead of waiting for someone else to do it?

Do you think MLK waited for someone else to take a stand?

Did Gandhi?
