One step forward, two steps back
That's all that happens when we 'apologize' for what we say.

In fact, maybe it is even worse than that. If that's all it was, then at least our message would be out there. But with the apology tacked on, that's **all** that enters the unconsious mind of the sheeple.

It is time to STOP name calling ....... unless you're willing to stand there afterwards with your chin out into their fucking whiney faces.

If you can't play big league baseball stay in the dugout. If you can't run with the big dogs, stay on the porch. You're hurting more than helping.

Put up or shut up.

If you want to criticize one of our guys for what he says that offends your sensitive fucking ears, I go one step further.

Shut the *fuck* up.

And after much consideration ........ I'll stick with Nazi. Not watered down words like extremist or fascist or any other damn euphemism. 'Nazi' paints a clear picture in unconscious minds. The other stuff is fluff. Euphemistic bullshit.

NAZI.

There .... that felt good.

1. Amen, brother!
One day we on the left will actually wake up and understand how the game is played. Until then, forget about ever getting majorities again.

2. That's why Dean has
become the face of the party (one of them). He doesn't back down from statements he makes that are truthful, even if unfortunate. If more started doing it, we would stand a chance.

When they all coming screaming about how "you're hurting our men and women in uniform" bullsh*t over your comparison of our prison camps to Hitler's prison camps, turn it on their F'ing heads.

"NO Sir, You're putting our men and women in uniform in danger by torturing people in our illegal prison camp."

3. Exactly!!!
Why don't the Dems come out with those snappy answers?

Get pissed off instead of pissed on!

What's so hard to figure out about that?

4. We need either a leadership school
or surgeons who will volunteer to implant spines.

5. Y'know...
that just got me thinking.

Why isn't there a school of politics?
