BeFree's JournalWhy are you a member of the Democratic Party?
There is a striking difference between being a member of one of the two main American political parties.
Besides the fact that most of the republicans who are in office are only working to win the next election, there is another, deeper, basic foundational difference.
Remember that republican saying from about 2002?
The saying: "You are either with us or against us".
Remember that?
It wasn't just a political statement, it was an edict from the republicans that "You better watch what you say and who you say it to."
That is the way of the republican party: " do as we say."
The party I align with, the party that I am most comfortable being a member of, is the Democratic party. I am proud to be a Democrat. Democrats would never tell us you are either are with us or against us. If they did they'd be run out of town on a rail, tarred and feathered.
The leaders of my party know better than to tell members that we better watch what we say.
We Democrats are expected to speak up and not toe the masters' line like the 'good' republicans do.
"I am proud to be a Democrat, where at least I know I'm free!"
Why are you a Democrat?
EAC Claims Scanners from ES&S Are Screwed Up... Finally
USA today on Dec 23, had an article in it's paper about how the scanners miscount votes, delete logs and otherwise mess up the vote counts.
The report was based on the Elections Assistance Commission study of the scanners.
It only took them 10 years to get around to the gawd-awful truth!!
Expect the EAC to be disbanded soon. The pubbies are already trying, they will be working harder now that the EAC actually did something!!
