Why does the DNC chairman |
|
have to be so PARTISAN?
Can't Dean learn to WORK with the Republicans? Where's the COMPROMISE?
Can't we all just GET ALONG?

2. Since the Republicans have been so willing to work with the Democrats |
|
I say give em as much of a chance as they have given us. Seems fair to me.... Dean can work with anyone who can handle the truth, that is the problem, people don't want the truth only the talking points....

4. It is the DNC chairmans job to be partisan. He is not working to pass |
|
legislation or cooperate with Republicans. His job is to get Democrats elected.

5. It's up to those elected and serving to deal with compromises |
|
Dean's job is to re-energize and prepare for 2006 and 2008. That being entirely a matter for Democrats it has nothing to do with Republicans.

6. LOL. really. he's supposed to work across the aisle |
|
and grab his ankles while Karl Rove, Scotty McDoughboy, Mehlman, and that GOP chair that looks like a child molester say whatever they want about the Dem party.
BAM!!!!!!!! shot square to their mouth. BOOOM!! drop them in their tracks with a K.O. upper cut.
Don't let these evil hucksters get away with it. DEAN speaks what others are paid NOT to say.

9. Because republicans don't respect you in the morning. |
|
He is the DNC chair. It may still be a radical notion, but I think the democrats should stand for something different.

10. I don't mind him being on the attack but just use a bit more tact. |
|
People don't like negativity. They'll shy away from it and stick with the status quo.
Just when the Democrats are gaining the upper hand in the polls, we don't need to scare the sheep back into the corral.

14. So they come out of the corral, find nothing and move on? |
|
Republicans have been gut punching us for 25 years. Tact and politeness did not get them where they are today.
Wake up and smell the coffee friend.
Someone calls you a traitor and a social degenerate, and you recommend a tactful response?
Those days have long since passed.

15. I'm not saying turn the other cheek. |
|
Just don't reply with a kick to the 'nads.
Negativity may sell on the news but it doesn't work as a platform.
Come up with ideas and legislation for jobs, healthcare, SS, budget cuts, etc. and show up the GOP with ideas. Make them look like the party of nothing.

16. Not only kick 'em in the 'nads |
|
When they're down on the ground put a boot over their windpipe!
Jeez! Rethugs have been doing that since Gingrich took over in the 90s. I thought Dems were ready to finally start fighting back!

20. Then when they stop breathing . . . |
|
Jump on their chest to make sure that not a breath reamins. Then, that being done, bury them face down in a shallow grave and START DANCING!!

19. did no one notice the comment - rethugs said about dems and |
|
day off for election - the statement had been that dems didn't need the day off because they didn't work anyway or were on unemployment - dean just countered that statement - I can't believe how the two lines are not being used together to show - he had a point -
oh forget it - people have just decided dean should act like the rest of our milk toast congress

That's all he has to do. If he can bring in the cash and recruit candidates from the Democratic Wing of the Democratic Party, then he can do whatever else he damn well pleases.
Watching him kick repugs is entertaining, don't knock it.
