Why is the GOP the only party using fear? The irony is killing me.

America should be frightened by what the GOP has done to our country. I am. Why aren't Democrats acquainting people with the fear of more Republican disasters?

1. Think maybe Democrats just haven't thought about doing that?

Maybe they "can't" because too many of THEIR large financial supporters (rich people and Corporate America) benefit from the results caused by the fears promoted by Republicans. e.g Overpopulation.

3. Maybe they haven't thought of it.

The way to get large financial support is to get power. I don't think the Dems are throwing all these games because their corporate sponsors want it that way.

4. What's the basis for your "I don't think the Dems are" comment? EOM

5. Are you saying Democrats are willing enablers of the GOP

because Democrats receive corporate contributions?

[Nozebro]

6. No. Read my post. It says nothing about being GOP "enablers". EOM

7. I'm reading the OP and your reply to it.

Why aren't we playing up Republican disasters; because Dem corporate sponsors are reaping benefits.

How is that not saying that the Democrats are enabling (or allowing) Republican disasters to continue, because their corporate sponsors gain?

Just trying to understand your point.

8. You're using semantics to try & distort my position.

If YOU want to say that "the Democrats" are enablers, fine, but that isn't what I said.

9. I'm just trying to understand your point.

Could you clarify, please?

2. Fear of the Bush administration is coming to the people by

virtue of the Bush's own strategies and incompetence and by the paradoxical juxtaposing of a secret, yet unabashedly open defiance of basic laws. The dems are right to remember what Roosevelt so wisely said, "We have nothing to fear but fear itself." How prescient of FDR. It is almost as if he foresaw the Bush cabal.
