This is great. I gotta get the book. Amazon has it.

Gotta bold this: "..."... the term "democrat" originated as an epithet and referred to 'one who panders to the crude and mindless whims of the masses.'"

[Enterprise]

Pandercrats.

[DuncanWaring]

Democracy - Greek for "mob rule".

Early example - "Give us Barabbas".

[Sherman Logan]

I doubt that’s the reason Democrats dislike the term, for the simple reason that it is likely few of them are aware of its meaning at the time of the Founding.

[Republican Red]

The President today commenting on the Moveon.org Petraeus ad:

"I was disappointed that not more leaders in the Democrat party spoke out strongly against that kind of ad, and that leads me to come to this kind of conclusion: That most Democrats are afraid of irritating a left-wing group like MoveOn.org — are more afraid of irritating them — than they are of irritating the United States military. That was a sorry deal," the president said.

lolol

I think they’re just mad cause Bush calls them the “Democrat Party” instead of the “Democratic Party”

[Tired of Taxes]

This explains everything. One Democrat became angry with me for using the word “Democrats”. He said he hated when people used that word because it sounded derogatory. That made no sense to me at all. Now I understand why.

[rightinthemiddle]

W called them “the Democrat Party” today in his press conference. Gotta love it.

[techcor]

Bump!

[rightwingextremist1776]

I’ve found the term Scumbag works in accuracy as well as effectiveness......As a matter of fact, that is the only term I use to refer to the scumbags.

[weegee]

They want to go back to their “roots” but shouldn’t their name be the Democratic-Republicans then?

[rightinthemiddle]

Yup...they’ve turned “mob rule” into “the will of the people,” with help from the MSM.

The “people”...who they can manipulate and control through the media, pollsters, educational system and government bureaucracies.

[Badeye]

I’ve noticed they do get a bit testy when Democrat Party is used, and I’ve been doing so ever since.

The fact of the matter is not only is that description accurate, its become obvious liberals in general are rank cowards...so afraid they’ve even come up with a ‘new description’ perferring the term ‘progressive’ these days.

Bunch of wimps, every single one of them. and as such unfit for the Presidency in times like these.

Then there is the odd ‘sub group’ that tries to hide behind the title of ‘Libertarian’.

You can easily out them, by asking what their position is on the 2nd amendment. Its like using a duck call, they pop right out of the ‘libertarian brush’ every single time.

I go on line with my local library...look it up...if they’ve got it at another library...I order it...when it comes in they email me and I go pick it up. There are so many great books out there to read...I’d be spending lots of $$$’s to read them all. So instead I use the library...that’s free. ;o)

[E-Mat]

I never call them “democratic” because I know they think their association with that word means something admirable. Besides, survey says their core values are anything but “democratic”, and they have a very undemocratic way of imposing those “values”.

[beethovenfan]

So they don’t like being called “Democrats”? OK, I’ll just call them Dumocraps.

[SoftballMominVA]

I’ve heard this before - it drives the moonbats CRAZY when President Bush refers to the “Democrat” Party. I wish he’d do it more often

[XenaLee]

Wow. No wonder they’ve gotten so upset all these years when I’ve called them DemocRats. Nice to know.

[7thson]

Look up the word sinister.

“This is great. I gotta get the book. Amazon has it.”

I strongly urge you to do so. I bought it about a year ago and it’s really informative and just a good read. Each chapter is a story unto itself.
