Ummmm, I've been a Republican all of my life. I believe in Bush, and I think he's doing the best in a tough job. A lot of my friends are Democrats though. We have great debates, sometimes I win and sometimes they win. I think the best part of our democracy is that tit-for-tat argument, back and forth, that works to make sure no one controls America. If one side gets too powerful, the other side fights back and, consequently, we get a government of all the people.

I don't see that in your comments. It is more about hatred, and destruction.

I don't like that.

I read your post and then reread Jim's article. Most of his invective is aimed at the Democratic party as an institution.I have friends who are Democrats too, but I didn't see anything in Jim's words that suggested I should hate them or sever ties with them.

Don't confuse passionate rhetoric with "hatred and destruction"

The Democratic Party is no longer the province of honest liberals. Sure a minority of them exist there, but by and large, since the Boomer generation and its counterculture ideology infected the DP, right on the heels of explicit efforts by Communists and Socialists to infiltrate it (note that for '04 the Communists will not foot a presidential candidate as they reckon the Dems will do their agenda well), the DP is no longer driving for the goals of the Constitution and our Founding Fathers.
