The party needs an enema. Flush out the RINOs, especially the fossils who are retired from politics but still spew filth!

I guess Danforth must have finally finished his holy mission of covering up the facts of the Branch Davidian massacre.

I guess they want us to to be the minority party, and to be a declining one at that. How do they expect to attract new people? Do they honestly believe that secular humanist WASPs will join who are not already in? The growth of the party will be rightist legal immigrants to are recruited as they become citizens. They happen to be conservative Christians as well. Think Africa, for example.

Danforth whitewashed the KKKlintoon murders at Waco. He has no truth in him.

Why is this CINO/RINO in the news so much lately? Waste of ink and space.

I remember when Danforth was on the short list for AG after the 2000 election, many Missouri FReepers (which I used to be) blasted me when I pointed out what you did claiming how honorable he was. I knew it would be a whitewash from the moment he was appointed.

"....come on, no need to bash us Episcopalians...we should be pulling together now before the election, not lashing out at each other."

The Episcopal church is circling the drain (rightfully). The descent into apostasy is accelerating---soon they'll "barely be Christians".

And yes, I used to be an Episcopalian. They lost me when they started signing up "priestesses".

Same here - his name was too familiar to me - which meant he had to be "part of the problem".

Danforth is actually an ordained Episcopalian minister. Personally, I lost all respect for him when he helped Clinton cover up the Waco murders. I think he's corrupt and unprincipled.

Amen, brother....I was seating near him at the Cardinal game last night and really wanted to ask him why Reno couldn't wait out the Davidians instead of storming the compound.

Danforth is a liberal pro-choice guy who has always been confused with regard to reality.

Don't forget, his vote in the Senate gave away the Panama Canal.

Too bad Jack didn't just dry up and blow away when his time was finished.

I heard Dennis Prager interview him a couple of weeks ago. Prager took him apart piece by piece with carefully reasoned questions like "why is a secular political agenda more noble than a religiously informed political agenda?". Danforth was lame and unconvincing.

I heard that interview also. You are right. Danforth's ignorance was plainly on display. Prager exposed him as a fool.

Feh. I'm not so much mad at Father John as I am disappointed. The guy sure has come down in the world since he was Clarence Thomas' confirmation sherpa.

Who else here thinks Danforth is a closet-queer?

Every time I've seen that lispy RINO speak I'm certain he's gone to the dark side.

Some folks say the 04 campaign was the dirtiest ever.
I think '06 will make that one seem tame by comparison.
Can't wait for '08.

Danforth was close to being on the ticket as VP in 2000.

John Danforth is a Christian like Noam Chomsky is a Jew.

I take it like this...you can particapte...he says they should do so, but only if you follow HIS prescription of working toward a "center."
