I Need Help with a New Progressive Effort

A few months ago I started a new website - ConvinceAConservative.org - dedicated to a grass roots political education movement: Dems convincing their conservative neighbors why we're better. People writing into newspapers to make a statement, not just Bush-Bash.

The website is simple. It's a database of hot political issues and accompanying arguments for the progressive position.

Unfortunately, I'm a college student, and I haven't been able to fill in many of the arguments. [That is, he reached his conclusions before looking at the evidence]

I'm asking for help. I need good writers who can make a strong case for the Democratic position on hot button issues.

If you'd like to help, please e-mail me at james@convinceaconservative.org or AIM at convaconserv, or just visit http://convinceaconservative.org / for more information.

Thanks!

Can someone oblige this youngster?

[Kenny Bunkport]

This guy should get a clue....The arguments that they're "better" don't exist.

Sounds like he's trolling over at the DU. Trying to get some takers on spouting off some off-the-wall positions they usually take, only he/she is trying to get them all in one place at one time.

Add the term 'unemployed' and it could pretty much sum up 90% of the group over at DU.

He will be waiting a long time. There isn't a soul alive that can make a strong case for the democrat (communist) position.

Progressive. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAAHAHAHA!!!! Everyone knows that's just code for LIBERAL!

How much is he paying? /sarcasm off

[Minnesoootan]

Dear Socoljam-

1) draw your conclusions.

2) Select data,no matter how flawed,to support your conclusions.

3) Discard any data,no matter how valid,which does not.

it's the Democrat way

BTW: Will I be permitted to use poor grammar, foul language, and/or ebonics ?

Maybe I'll email him with the fact that had the Dems not aborted so many potential constituents, they might be a significant political force. Nah, it'll make him feel guilty for having "survived".

[Nathan Zachary]

Just what IS the Democrat position on hot button issues? All we ever get is flip-flop.

Funny stuff. :)

Dems convincing conservative neighbors why we're better

The kid does a magnificent job illustrating the vapid yet elitist attitude of liberals: "I know we're better than other people...but would someone tell me WHY I'm better?".

[anniegetyourgun]

He should simply take a lesson from his party leadership. Here's a great sample of D writing on the issues:

"I hate Republicans, and everything they stand for." - Howard Dean

Progressive. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAAHAHAHA!!!! Everyone knows that's just code for LIBERAL! Socialist

There.
I fixed it.

Progessive = liberal without the balls to admit it.
Liberal = socialist without the balls to admit it.
Socialist = communist with out the balls to admit it.

[vrwinger]

Seems like his work is finished... He has attempted to gather cogent arguments supporting the typical "progressive" positions and hasn't found any. Shouldn't that tell him something?
