Frustrated
Please help me. I don't know anymore. It seems like there are two types of Democrats. People who are embedded in the processes and want to win no matter what, and get blinded in the process. And people, like me, who see the damage Republicans do to the world and opt for the Democratic party as the least of two evils.

I see no real trend to get rid of the sick Republican philosophy, only to push it aside temporarily. Where is the talk of other parties? If I think about another party I'm ostracized. As a result, Republicans will always be there.

Are Democrats like partners with Republicans are what?

1. I'm in the same boat as you
I feel like things are going to have to get a hell of a lot worse before people realize how morally bankrupt conservatism (especially in this country) is. And even then some people will be stubborn enough to blame those "America-hatin' liberals".

2. The DLC and many of the democratic lackeys of corporate employers
are indistinguishable from the repuke Reps. We are truly faced with a severe shortage of un-owned (sic) leaders.

3. Thanks
Thanks for giving me some sense that I'm not totally crazy. I expected to get flamed. I'm just getting tired of the assumption that Republicans will exist forever. I can't take that. My dad's job in the Army was beating hippy's heads' in, yet I see the need to end Republican party in the U.S. and establish a peaceful country. I hope that people understand the importance of that. Republicans need to go -- we need to debate between two or more -peaceful- parties.

4. There are but two groups in society: the proletariat and the bourgeoisies.
