Is the 2008 DNC going the way of the 1968 convention?

[Hendrix]

"I'm real tired of both parties spending my money on things they see fit."

I hear you loud and clear. I am a low-tax-small-government conservative--not a republican. It just so happens that republicans are more conservative than democrats, but I am very disappointed in the republican spending.

[ozzymandus]

Pretty telling that the RATS would chose the hotel where Reagan was shot.

[Cinnamon]

yep.. just when you thought they couldn't sink any lower.. they defy the laws of physics

[b4its2late]

Let's step back out of the way and let those moonbats fly!

Roger!

For some reason the democrats just don't want to tell people what they really want to do. It really puzzles me.

It doesn't puzzle me. If their true agenda were known and understood by the electorate, they would go down to crushing defeat. By lying, obfuscating, triangulating, race-baiting, and success-hating, they have managed to remain a viable force in American politics. Yes, they are still losing, but they would be a lot worse off if they announced their true intentions.

Wow... can you say 1968?

[sgtbono2002]

Liberals are getting crazier an more desperate by the minute.

"...there was the Backbone Campaign, which sold miniature spines to discourage purchasers from engaging in yes-man, convictionless support of their politicians."

The RINOs in the Senate need any spines that are leftover.

You think?

Jonathan Tasini, who is running against her (Hildabeast) in November on a solidly leftist ticket.

If you are in New York, you can sign his petition to get on the ballot against Hildabeast. :)

Sorry--I didn't realize you were being sarcastic in your opening remark. Clearly, we are on the same page. :)

[Hendrix]

That may sell in NY, but will it sell in the red states? That is the problem with democrats, there are not enough of them to win so they have to try to fool the rest of the voters.

[dukeman]

Love that graphic in your #25! LOL! I say whenever a moonbat wants to speak, hand 'em a big microphone and get out of the way. Nothing helps their opponents more. They have no clue how poorly they come across.

[Hendrix]

"Sorry--I didn't realize you were being sarcastic in your opening remark. Clearly, we are on the same page. :)"

No need for an apology. I was fishing for responses to my sarcasm to help drive the point home: if progressive ideas are so great, run on them don't hide them.

Absolutely! Their stealth tactic is the polar opposite from the Green Party. I remember in the 2000 election when Ralph Nader was their nominee. My 74-year old, life-long Republican mother thought Nader "seemed interesting." Then the local newspaper printed excerpts of the Green Party platform, which looked like a fax directly from the old Soviet politburo. My mom freaked out and never mentioned Nader again. Hehe.

And last week the Campaign for America's Future's annual Take Back America conference, now a major event on the political left,

heh heh,what is this,their 6th annual?going to be coming up on their 25th annual the way they are going.....

[newgeezer]

Democrats are out of ideas and out of touch, to the point of engaging in "complicit conservatism."

LOL!!!

If anything, Republicans are out of ideas and out of touch, to the point of engaging in "complicit LIBERALISM."

[b4its2late]

You're correct. We know what they are all about so we kind of cringe when we hear their drivel. But the average Joe 6 Pack that hears them might finally realize how wacked the left is.....

Glad you saw and like the graphic. I stole it from someone else here on FR. I didn't hit the reply to you so you wouldn't think it was directed at you. So I just did a "to the thread" type post.

[OpusatFR]

Ask them how...they not only don't have a clue, but they can't get past, "Take America Back!!!"

Gay Marriage!! Religious Progressive!! Minimum wage!! Bring back industry!!! More diversity!!! Children first!!! Women's Rights!!! Bring them home!!! Immigrants rights!! Unite the World!!! Be nice to Iranians and North Koreans!! Learn to love other Cultures!!!
