Dear Kevin,
"What are you going to do on Inauguration Day?" At least in Washington, that's a question you hear Democrats asking one another as George W. Bush's inaugural celebration approaches. Do you want to know my answer?
Join the million-strong Democrats who are standing up to fight for what we believe in.
I'm going to stand with over a million grassroots Democrats who have entered 2005 with a fighting spirit by renewing their 2005 financial support for the Democratic Party in advance of January 20.
Look, we Democrats can either swallow all of the Republicans' malarkey about "the people have spoken" and go hide in a corner somewhere. Or we can fully embrace the grassroots power that we so clearly demonstrated in 2004. Renew your support today at:

President Bush has already made plain what he means by "cooperation." He tells us what to do and we're supposed to cooperate. So now, it's time to tell the President what we think of his bullying political tactics and his dangerous second-term agenda.
Let's come out of the gate fast in 2005. So fast that the Democratic National Committee will have a million people who have renewed their support in the new year before Bush is sworn in on January 20. Be one of the million who stepped forward. Act right now.

Together, we'll stand strong in the face of Republican efforts to stack the Supreme Court and the rest of the federal courts with right-wing ideologues. We'll stop the Republicans from making huge tax cuts permanent for the wealthiest Americans, while they ignore the economic needs of America's working families.
We'll act together to protect Social Security from reckless Republican plans to turn it into a stock market gamble while adding over a trillion dollars to the already skyrocketing Bush budget deficits. We'll stand up for civil rights and civil liberties, for a woman's right to choose, and for every American's right to enjoy clean air and clean water unspoiled by reckless polluters.
Look, Bush and the Republicans can only get their way in 2005 if we Democrats forget our own power. They only win if we choose to stop fighting. But if we stick together, we can transform American politics.
You and I both know how important a year 2005 is going to be. George Bush and the Republicans are going for broke. They know that a second-term President has no more than 18 months to force his agenda through -- and they won't waste a minute.
If we let them, they'll weaken economic security at home and weaken America's most important alliances abroad. They'll stack the courts, abuse the legislative process and change the rules whenever they see fit.
These people are playing for keeps, and we better do the same. This is no time to hold back. We've got to fight forward with every ounce of energy we have. Renew your support today.

P.S. Remember, we need at least 1 million activists to step forward in the next eight days. That's more than a thousand committed grassroots Democrats for every plush limousine, chock full of smug special interest lobbyists, that will be gliding through Washington during the Bush inaugural. It's our country, not theirs, and we will never let them win.

James, James, poor, poor demented James..... We DID win!
The DNC isn't smart enough to know that they lost.....
James has been eatin' bad crawfish again...
Send the DNC $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
so they can "win".
Bwwwwaaaaahhhhaaaaaaaa.
Ol' Serpenthead is as delusional as ever.
Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I guess they are feeling a pinch. The Dem grassroots are not very happy with the DNC.
It aint easy living with a snake head and Sheit for brains.
But Mr. Carville, in all seriousness, what DOES the Democratic Party believe in?
There's that Oh So Cool sounding number. 1 Million. Again.
So intimidating and scary. The problem is that math is not these people's strong suit. One Million equals one thousand thousand.
Like "The Million Man March". Which garnered much less than a sixteenth that number. Or "The Million Mom March". Whose abyssmally ridiculous turnouts are hardly worth mentioning.
If this message is just going out now. Without co-ordination and some sort of control and adhesion. These whiny a$$ed little bitches will be lucky to get 1,000 people in place. Only to be surrounded and cordoned off by spectators, Park, Capitol, Merto and Secret Service cops.
Jack.

Gollum needs a better editor...
How nuts is Gollum?
This medical journal article treats Gollum as a subject in a scholarly analysis of his disorders:
There is no disorder of the form of thought. He uses neologisms such as "triksy" and "hobbitses."
Gollum has nihilistic thoughts, believing that he is a murderer, liar, and thief; although there is some basis in fact for this and he shows little guilt or remorse.
He is preoccupied with, and deeply desires, the ring. He has obsessive thoughts but no compulsions, though he would do anything for the ring.
He is hostile towards Frodo, the current owner of the ring.
He has paranoid ideation about Sauron ("the eye is always watching") and about Samwise Gamgee ("the fat hobbit... he knows").
Gollum has difficulty controlling his thoughts and actions, exacerbated by prolonged contact with the ring.
As Gandalf and Frodo have similar symptoms in the presence of the ring, we can attribute this somatic passivity to the ring.
There are features of dissociation. Smeagol has separated his personality and is now Gollum as well.
Bill Clinton was very good for Republican fundraising. Republican control of government should be good for rat fundraising except for the fact that rat voters expect government to give them money...they don't give money. The rats get most of their money from scumbags like Soros or confiscated union dues. Major contributors expect results and the rats can't point to anything they did, they can only say it would be worse without "your contribution." "Things suck but they could be worse," is not a very good selling point.
Exactly. And since they have labeled it a 1 million count, it will be parroted over and over. Who cares that they won't come near approaching that value.
"Look, we Democrats can either swallow all of the Republicans' malarkey about "the people have spoken" and go hide in a corner somewhere. Or we can fully embrace the grassroots power that we so clearly demonstrated in 2004."
its over call it a day love to see you rot this way(DNC)
1-20 america wins again
Was the citizenship of conservatives revoked when I wasn't looking? Since when does the country belong to Carville and his band of weenies? Even Soros didn't have enough money to buy it for them.
