Ah,there's nothing like a cup of liberal angst to start a Monday morning. It's almost as good as bacon burps.

[fastattacksailor]

If they wish to set a course---set it into the local pond!

[Haro_546]

this is part the shadow party.

[pissant]

Crawl back into the holes you came from, you stinking, commie, traitorous scumbags.

"We have a party that has become a 'lite' shadow of the Republican Party," said Bereano, a University of Washington professor of technology and public policy. "The center of gravity needs to be pushed all the way to the left again."

Note to self: Send the good prof an e-mail urging him ever-leftward....

[NFOShekky]

I have a suggestion: Let them continue to rearrange the deck chairs on the Titanic!!! Some folks just never get it!

[Jersey Republican Biker Chick]

Someone should tell them to lead by example and take their own advice and JUST MOVE ON!! Move on out of this country would be my choice for them.

[God luvs America]

the course for the future better be raffles and back sales...I doubt that terrorist George Soros will part with another $10-mill on these pieces of crap.

[Publius]

They are so far left they are about to fall off the political playing field.

[Slyfox]

"A lot of people are demoralized by the election," said Loeb

How can somebody be de-moralized if they weren't moral to begin with?

[rabidralph]

positive energy of engagement and enragement

I think that's what that Hmong sniper was feeling.

[Luddite Patent Counsel]

"Engagement and enragement"? Where did this guy learn to speak English? From Jesse Jackson?

[Dan from Michigan]

Are those jokers going back to being a gun grabbing org?

[TheBigB]

After the Nov. 2 election, Emma Bartholomew said, she needed to spend a full week in mourning.

CUCK-koo, CUCK-koo....

You don't have to encourage him. After years of trying to understand the Vietnam-era left, a wise newspaper editor who works with them explained to me how their brains work: they try to shoehorn just about every situation into one of three precedents: Vietnam, the civil-rights battle and/or Watergate. That's why so many of them supported the Kosovo intervention - any Vietnam-type squeamishness about the military action was overcome by their perception of the civil rights struggle involved: the Serbs became the Southern bigots, Milosevice became Bull Connor and the Kosovar Albanians were the repressed blacks.

And this cranial hard-wiring is apparently incurable. Which is why they can't adjust to modern times and futher marginalize themselves with every passing election.

[Gibtx]

my guess is they are close to commiting sedition .... and if their not carefull attract a lot of attention from the terrorists who will use them.... much like VN used Kerry then and now.....

[MEG33]

Support this effort to move left and also ...get Whoopi and Barbra,Michael and Baldwin,Susan and Tim involved!

[anniegetyourgun]

I do hope so, db.

However, I fear that in the end, they will remake themselves into the image of Hillary. She will become someone we won't even recognize over the next 3 years - physically and politically. It worries me very much. Remember, the electorate voted for her wretched husband.....twice. We must be vigilant.

[Publius]

They're nowhere near sedition. Now if they tie up with people who want Washington and other blue states to secede from the Union to become Canadian provinces, then we're talking about sedition.

[rabidralph]

We FReepers owe it to them to sign up for their parties, just for the gigglefest and muted gloating we all deserve.
