What Democrats don't have is ideas.

Democrats can buy the look of a grassroots organization, but it's all top down - the illusion paid for with big Hollywood cash. Can Ad agency's and PR firms make it look real? Somewhat. Take away the big cash and the cards fall down.

They got nothing.

Only because I'm still waiting for an "intellectual" to be included among those named in the story.

"Top Hollywood activists and intellectuals "

This is an oxymoron, wouldn't you think?? Especially the intellectual part.

Hint hint! :-)

Hilton Bush Bash?

I thought that was that tawdry little 42-minute green, grainy sex tape that's been circulating the internet for the past three weeks?

Now wouldn't that depend on at what point you could call a person an intellectual? In this case I'm thinking somewhere around 3-5 points higher than a flatworm.

[Congressman Billybob]

I know this is the second posting. And these people are slime, not worth the effort. Your "flatworm" post, however, made the visit all worthwhile. Thanks.
