The DLC is coming to get you rarrrrr!
The DLC is hiding in your closet.

The DLC has bugged your jar of flour.

The DLC is the one that issued you that Che Guevara t-shirt - to OPPRESS YOU.

The DLC is carving your initials into its wack-a-liberal bat.

The DLC - an angry, vile, beast that WON'T attract centrists and liberal Republicans to the Democratic Party EVER.

The DLC. Hate them. Hate hate hate haaaate!

1. DLC=Democrats Lose Continually
If I wanted to vote for a bunch of corporate ass-lickers, I'd be a Republican.

2. Let me get this straight...

Are you trying to tell us that the DLC is going to growl like an animal, oppress us, hide in our closets and spy on our private moments? Sounds kinky. I like it.

6. Found this little tidbit, too...
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=104&topic_id=96854#97040

From IkeWarnedUs:

"The DLC is the Trojan Horse for neo-cons and PNAC'ers to infiltrate the Democratic party.

Will Marshall, the president and founder of the Progressive Policy Institute (PPI) and former Policy Director for the DLC is a signer on PNAC's two statements on Iraq. PPI was created to set policy for the DLC and is very closely connected to the DLC. In fact, the DLC website shows joint contact info for both organizations and the same person answers the phone for both (202-547-0001 PPI, 202-546-0007 DLC).

Tod Lindberg, published by The Blueprint (DLC magazine) also signed both PNAC Iraq statements, as did James Steinberg, Deputy National Security Advisor to President Clinton.

Marshall Wittman, another Blueprint author, is a Senior Fellow at the Hudson Institute (Richard Perle, trustee) and former aid to Ralph Reed.

Those are just the direct links . . ."

5. I wondered where those weevils in the flour were from
Seriously, if you want any proof that the DLC is WRONG, just look at Congress. We know Bush cheated his way back into power, but the whole of Congress? Get real!

The Democrats have continued to lose Congress because they're a bunch of spineless wimps who don't address the issues faced by ordinary people in this country, and they are that way because of the fucking DLC.

It's time for the DLC to fade into oblivion. They've had a good run, and they've had ample time to experiment with attracting Repuglicans. It simply hasn't worked.

Sorry if you agree with them. They have wonderful ideas for yuppies, but we are not a nation of yuppies. We're working class and we are hurting. It's time for leadership that will address the majority instead of squabbling over a minority.

13. No, the DLC is going to get corporate cash from far-rightists.
You know, their faves like the Koch brothers.

Most informed Dems now understand this is a bad idea - taking large infusions of cash from people who set up think thanks to defeat you is a losing proposition.

14. No- but their "strategy" cost Georgia their finest Senator- Max Cleland.
Not to mention countless other losses in the past 3 election cycles.

Face it-the "play it safe, lets go along with Bush/media" DEM "strategists" are chumps, losers and pseudo-collaborators.
