Moderation in drugs or alcohol, graft, extortion, gay sex? Just what behavior do they intend to moderate?

This would really be news...










If it were true, that is.

Yeah right. Remember how Clinton and Gore promised to tax only the rich? Gradually, that definition was lowered to include more and more middle class taxpayers. Remember the words, "invest in America"? Remember how we were scolded, that everyone must do his "fair" share?

The Dems will say exactly what they have to, to get elected.

A "moderate" amount of arsenic will still kill you.

My mouth is hanging open from that snippet you posted.

Does it tick you off too when someone tries to tell you that black is white and up is down?

AP must have seen some polls that are good for Republicans.


HELLO this is the party that tried to put homosexuals on submarines the second they were in office.

HITLARYCARE?!!!

Seems the AP staff has gotten into woodwards pot stash.

All the MSM is doing is pissing people off enough with the thought of Pelosi and Conyers that they will run out and vote Republican.

"Does it tick you off too when someone tries to tell you that black is white and up is down?"

In my neck of the woods we say, "Don't pi$$ down my back and tell me it's raining". That sums this article up IMO. What do I know, I'm just a knuckle-dragging country-boy. ;-)

Yet the would-be chairmen in a House under Democratic control promise to rule from the center.

Saaaanta Claus is coming to town....
Saaaanta Claus us coming to town.
Santa Claus is coming....to town.

Actually, I can't think of a single moderate Democrat. All the ones I can think of (including Joe Lieberman) believe in higher taxes, more government, partial-birth abortion, no parental notification, PC speech codes, affirmative action and race-bait politics, endlessly negotiating with terrorists and communists, promoting homosexuality and gay marriage, etc etc.

I haven't heard a single Democrat criticize Harry Reid's land deals, or give Republicans any credit for the good economy.

What do you consider a moderate Democrat ?

What is interesting, is the premise on which this article is written. That Democrats are inherently left-wing liberals (denied by dems), that Nancy Pelosi is the would-be speaker. (First time I've seen AP admit that) and they made fun of Rangel without even realizing it. This article would force a middle-of-the road voter to see that Democrats are inherently liberal and that Nancy Pelosi is about to be third in line to the Presidency, two negative things.

Thank you AP!

on a side note, why havent we ran ads with her face and a crazy spaz out by her saying..."TWO HEART BEATS AWAY?"

An ad or two nation wide about the MSM being Dem flackers could help with the Base being apathetic or being cut and run Pub purists that want to stay home to teach the Pubs a lesson, by making them lose! It is always a good reminder to the voters how biased the Media is for Dem leftist pacifist socialists.

They will use moderation for target practice, more like. Ask Lieberman.

Sure..."we promise to be moderate" sounds like "the trains are going to nice camps for Jews to relax and get away from the war." Sorry, this smells.

?

The ONLY democrats who have been continually re-elected are from jerry-mandered "safe" districts that have merely become more and more extreme.

It's the extremists (like Conyers, Rangel, Pelosi herself who are lying...... Your assumptions, your statements, your conclusions are not real...

They are lying, and we know it.

But let's not assume that. The Democrats are united by a love of raw power, socialism and an irrational hatred of George W. Bush. But they might be smart enough to damper the last one in order to enhance the first two.

Of course I could be wrong - no one thought Republicans would impeach Clinton, and folks like us all but forced them to (and I was right with them, yeehaw.) But I never thought impeachment of Bush was all that realistic anyway. Impeach him for what? Having bad intelligence? Arguably going too far in securing our nation (NSA wiretaps?) Does the Democrat Party really want to throw a President from office for trying too hard, who immediately admitted the existence of the NSA program?
