I'm not going to have these right-wingers throw away our right to be tolerant."

WTF?

[fortheDeclaration]

Now how the heck did Kansas get a Democrat Gov.?

As a recall there was a very contentious GOP primary, and she squeaked by..also..she's not what you would call a "mainstream" Dem..she's way to the right of Pataki, for example..

In Northfield, Minnesota there are still bullet holes on the outside bank walls from the James-Younger robbery attempt of 1876 when the Norwegian farmers of Northfield shot the h!ll out of the crooks. Norwegians are usually very easy-going people...except when you try to take off with their money.

The ranting lunatic considers his extreme leftism a model of tolerance? He then speaks for Moderate Republicans as if he's on the same team? LMAO! What an idiot. He's still running for president in his mind I think. Someone should tell him the election is over, Bush won.

If you have to claim that your good,you are not.

I met a guy from Northfield, Minnesota a few years back. He told me that they're still talking about the robbery. It was, apparently, the ONLY thing that ever happened there.

[Tripoli]

Looks like Dean has no "tolerance" for conservatives.

[smonk]

does anyone besides me see a huge contradiction in the following phrase : "Moderate Republicans can't stand these people (conservatives), because they're intolerant . . ."?

someone seriously doesn't get it.

Until just a few years ago, in Lee's Summit, MO, we had a celebration known as "Cole Younger Days." I guess someone finally objected to having a celebration named after a bank robber and murderer! lol.

I think they renamed it "Wild West Days."

"throw away our right to be tolerant"

HUH ..?? Does anybody know how us right-wingers are supposed to be doing this ..?? The logic totally escapes me.

[Osage Orange]

ROFLOL!!!

[Publius]

We old historians never die.

[manic4organic]

Shouldn't that headline be "Dean Screams Into Town"?

[driftless]

There are two good colleges in Northfield, St.Olaf's and Carleton, and it's a pretty area, but you're probably correct. They haven't had anything like that happen before or since. It's about one hundred miles from where I live, but it's a nice stop on the way to the Twin Cities.

[driftless]

They do have a celebration (?) in Northfield every summer. I could be wrong, but they might call it "Jesse James Days".

G&*%AMN morons in the republican party can't get their $hit togather.
