The SWIFT BOATING of the DEMOCRATIC PARTY is in FULL SWING |
|
If ya hadn't noticed...I did....
Pubs: Dump on their weakness to respond...hit them Dems with everything...make them look like they are no worse/better than the Pubs
Exploit/exaggerate every perceived mistake weakness....make the Dems appear foolish and stupid..
Get others to help....
etc etc....
Its not working well but its still early in the Season....

1. Trouble is, nobody believes them anymore. |
|
Americans are getting to the point where we will vote for a dead goat to get rid of these criminals.
BTW, 55 million Republicans maligning 72 million Democrats is probably a sad, desperate exercise in futility.
But you keep pushing their message.

27. "Abusers" are characteristically SELF-AWARDING DENIERS AND BLAMERS,.... |
|
,...AND PERPETUAL DESTROYERS,...at some point, even among the utmost desperate denying reality lot of the 'faithful',...curiosity will prevail.
:rofl:
The worst of my perceptions about this environment, exposed, sadly.
:shrug: Do I owe an apology,...to someone?

:grr:
The Clintonian DLC needs to return home to the Moderate REPUBLICANS.
We need to purge our beloved party of the "corporations first and always" DLC before we can unite as a party. :(

5. It is early---if they keep it up and the Democrats as usual |
|
stay hidden under their desks--never responding---Yep, we lose everything in 08.
There are Pundits, some Democratic Pundits included, who have never conceded that the GOP lose in o8. It is a long time to the election and Americans are fickle.

are starting to queue up with the Democratic party members. Except for Dennis Kucinich, dang it!

15. Pelosi did it yesterday, scrubbing the war surtax. |
|
This was one of the rare brilliant ideas the Dems have proposed since coming to power, making it clear that this war is this age's problem and the cost shouldn't be handed down to future generations. This is a way to make the people even more outraged than they already are over the idiocy of this war.
So what does the Democratic Speaker of the House do? She slits the throat of the Dem messenger bringing it to the public. Nice job, Nancy.
Tip of the iceberg.

17. She said she's not in favor of the draft and she's not in favor of a surtax. |
|
In other words, she's not in favor of Americans owning this lemon of a war. The problem is, if we don't own it, we can safely ignore it. It's someone else's problem. We do need to own it in order to end it.

Passive/aggressive behavior is in the domain of psychology; the Democratic Party has raised it to social policy.
