The calls are coming from Nirvana fans...

[Libertina]

Uhmm, Dr, Raoul, there are no calls...

[lainie]

Bababooey to ya all.

VANITY: Is It Rush Fans or Disgrunted Hard Left Democrats Calling In Death Threats To Daschle?

Wouldn't put it past the Daschle supporters and DU'ers to phone in such threats(if they exist at all). They lost big time and are desperate.

[boomop1]

I believe Daschle has a little problem facing up to reality, he and his party just had they're asses kicked at the polls and he feels physically threatened, what a clymer. Is that a threat?

[Doctor Raoul]

I meant to point out in the original article, we're happy with Daschle's performance in 2002. We'd like him to stay forever at this rate.

[ventana]

Rush fans are busy making a living, they do not have time for serial phone calls (and it would have to be serial to make an impact and to create "a pattern".) OTH, there are a lot of demonrats with lots of time on their hands now. V's wife.

[boomop1]

yikes they're should be their, but you knew that.

[dennisw]

....... There were no phone calls and even if there were the security for these congresscritter poohbahs is quite good. Capitol Hill is swarming with it's own special police force. I'm not losing any sleep over this bogus claim and neither it tater tot Tommy.

Bump

[jackbill]

Dasshole's claim that Rush's words make some of us want to act is absolutely correct. I listened, and acted. On Nov. 5 I voted a straight Republican ticket except that I did not vote in the Congressional election because my Representative is a big time RINO.

I don't need to threaten little Tommy or his buddies because they seem very capable of getting rid of themselves.

Well look at it this way Doctor. Daschle would have passed all the appropriation bills this year but he decided on a continuing resolution to continue them until next year when he might have the house and he would certainly have 2 or 3 more votes in the Senate. Then he looks up on election night and realized he has handed control of this years appropriations to Bush and Trent Lott.

Then he finds out Bush has talked to a bunch of Democrat Senators and they are ticked at what McAuliffe and Daschle had done to them. AFter the chats Daschle no longer even had 40 votes to filibuster the Home Security bill. Bush had 65 votes to bring it up over Daschles dead body. All Daschle could do was pretend it was his idea to bring it up. Bush was prepared to humiliate him by passing it his way, before Talent took office with the same senators who had blocked bush in 2001 and 2002. Those Democratic senators used to be aligned with their brother Daschle. Now they were scared to death of George Dubya Bush.

Imagine before the new Republicans even take office,Bush has control of 16 of your senators. Look at the cloture vote on Homeland Security. It was 65 to 29. Bush had 16 Democrats who had served the last two years fighting bush, now voting with him. Note that 6 Democrats didn't even show up to vote.

That is called humiliation city.

Daschle was so mad at Bush and Lott he tried to kick Rush Limbaugh in the teeth.... but his feet would not go that high over his head..

If ain't easy being a little Daschle.

[lainie]

I don't see him calling police or asking for wiretaps to find these dastardly criminals who threaten him and make him fear for his safety.

[sarasmom]

Daschle is now, against his will and without his knowledge, channeling the dead.

I can see how that would "disturb him".

I usually dont get any pleasure from watching a human being disintegrate mentally before my eyes.I will make an acception here, and hope God agrees with me, in this instance.

[Johnny Shear]

It's people who use oversized fonts.

[ctnoell]

You can voice your opinion (or disgust) to the Senator from South Dakota himself at daschle.senate.gov/webform.html . I just gave him a piece of my mind and I will sleep better tonight. I encourage every conservative to do likewise.

Here are some of the remarks shortly after the election from a fair and balanced web site:

11/6/02 Day after elections ANGRYDEMOCRATS.com

"Terry, You're Fired."

(possibly the world's shortest petition!)

Name: City:

State:

Registered Democrat: Email:

(email is only for verification only, it will NEVER EVER, EVER be given out)

THIS PETITION will be presented in person (WITHOUT EMAILS) to Terry McAuliffe, DNC Chairman. If you live near DC, come along! (We'll try to get it on video and post it here, so that everyone who signed can feel like they were there themselves.)

Go ahead, vent! [Add a comment to this page]

Bring It All Down. [2:24am]

WHAT DO WE EXPECT AFTER 14 MONTHS OF DASCHLE LICKING BUSH'S BOOTS??? WHERE ARE THE LEADERS WHO CAN BRING BACK THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY????? [2:41am]

I REALLY CAN'T BELIEVE THIS! WWIII here we come.... [2:48am]

Maybe if the dems hadn't kept saying "President Bush has done a great job in the war on terror!" What if they had said, "Bush is losing the war on terror by squandering the surplus on things that have nothing to do with national security." What if they had gone on the offensive. Really, what are these people afriad of? [2:55am]

Don't blame the media. Don't blame the Republicans. Sure as hell don't blame the American people! BLAME THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY. IT'S OK TO BE PISSED. Terry McAuliffe is a #^$&ing idiot. Daschle is a complete wuss. And you know they're not even going to draw the right lesson from this. No, instead they're going to decide that they need to pull back even further, to submit even more completely. What the hell are we going to do? The American people have no leaders who represent them: that's why only 40% of register voters turn out. [3:28am]

I really can't believe that we are facing control by these selfish, war mongering, stupid republicans! How can people vote for them? Don't they see this is a sham? That they want to send us to war. That they don't care that companies lie to us and take our retirement investments. That their attitude toward and dirty tricks over the years have caused the problems we are in overseas. That George Bush is just using Christianity as a smoke screen - he is an alcoholic cocaine addict for God's sake! I am so angry and depressed I can't stand it! [3:37am]

McCarville said it well tonight: The Democrats didn't give the people a clear choice, they didn't act like they were fighting for "anything". I hope this is the death knell for the accomodation wing of the DNC and DLC. The Democrats have compromised repeatedly over the last 10 years. The Republicans ask for 200%, and then "compromise" to 100%. The Democratic leadership is beyond "irrelevant", they are traitors to the roots of the Democratic Party. Daschle and Gephardt care more about their run for the 2004 Presidency than they do about their Party, their country, or the future of humanity. Disgusted in Modesto, CA, Jody [3:44am]

There is much more, but I don't have enough time to edit out the vile filth to make it acceptable for posting on a first class site like FreeRepublic.

[Always A Marine]

Threats? Let me be the first to admit that I threatened Democrats -- with my Vote! And I fired that sucker off almost as soon as the poll opened.

[TLBSHOW]

weeper whiners is who

[BillF]

For those who would like to see the Daschle press conference in its entirety (about 50 minutes), it is currently scheduled to run on C-SPAN and C-SPAN 2.

C-SPAN 2:19 am ET (11:19 pm Pacific time)

C-SPAN2 11:44 pm ET (8:44 pm PT)

I'm going to tape it. I think that I heard one snippet in which Daschle said that the Dems had problems having their voters "legitimized."

I'll have to listen to see if I heard it right. I think he was saying that they had trouble getting illegals made legal so that they could vote.
