I can't stand when the Repubs. are talking fondly about Ted Kennedy & using "Democrat" instead of |
|
"Democratic." Like Hatch saying something like, "We really miss Ted in the Senate. Now, the Democrat majority will probably try to ram through a bill with a government takeover and rationing care which will have NO input from us Republicans..." They make me SICK with their partisan language and lies all dressed up as "honoring" Ted Kennedy. :eyes:

1. I decided not to watch the talking heads and the creep repubs |
|
this morning. They don't care about this country at all. They have theirs and the rest of us can sink or swim. Nobody calls them out on that "democrat" mess either. It's sickening.

Re: the "calling them out" for using "Democrat," Chris Matthews did it TWICE-once to Ron Christie and once to, darn, I don't remember, but I THINK it was the governor of MN. He ALSO commented on Sarah Palin using it after playing video of one of her speeches.

2. hatch is hick and a hack who doesn't want to remind |
|
people that It's the Democratic Party 'cause that might lead them to the truth that it's the best party.
hatch needs to know that there will be no input from republicons who can't say "Democratic Party" and who keep blatering on about "government takeover" like they were some kind of programmed robots/pod people.

There is no center to them. They only "praise" Kennedy to kill his dream. These ghouls have stalled and anticipated his death as a chance for political advantage. I just wish our own party didn't have those so willing to give up on Kennedy's dream for their own corporate masters.

9. It's the measure of the man that even his enemies will claim to love him |
|
He was a giant and this was bound to happen. Anyone who uses his 'love' of Kennedy to push his personal political views is not a true friend. If they push Kennedy's own political views then they're a true friend of his.

11. These elected haters are hard-wired by now to say that. |
|
I think they're fearful the whole base will bolt and vote in a primary challenger if they don't maintain their childish usage, even at times when it's clearly inappropriate.

12. I just think of it as a Right Wing dialect of English.... |
|
which I like to call "Ivoronics".
They use "democrat" like Bush uses "libary" or "nucular"... the ear learns to make the translations, just like with any other language/dialect.

and chalk it up to the way they mangle everything. Since we are the WINNERS and they are LOSERS I can be magnanimous ... their chidlish tactics are PATHETIC and not worth me stressing over.
Edit: spelling
