Fury in Dem-Land: Bloggers Want Kerry to Hit Back By Susan Jones CNSNews.com Morning Editor September 02, 2004
(CNSNews.com) - Democrats on Thursday described Republicans as the "angry party," but rank-and-file Democrats were the ones venting their fury on Republicans -- via a Democrat-sponsored blog, calling "Kicking A**."
Many of the people posting comments on the "daily dispatches" website said it's time for Kerry to fight back. What's he waiting for, they asked.
"Last night, the Republican Party proved once and for all that it has nothing to offer the American people," says the Democratic National Committee's Kicking A** website.
"The vice president couldn't articulate his president's vision for the future -- because there isn't one. A Republican Senator who perversely likes to call himself a Democrat lied over and over and over again to the American people while revealing the inexplicable rage that motivates him.
"On a night where the theme was 'Land of Opportunity,' we learned that Republicans aren't the least bit interested in making America a better place. All they have to offer are anger, fear, and despair..."
Responding to the posting, one presumed Democrat wrote, "We are losing folks."
\ldblquote We need an ad campaign on TV comprised of close-ups of the bitter divisive anger of Schwarzeneggar, Miller, Delay, Bush, Buchanan, Hannity, North, Rumsfeld, and more, along with the voiceover of their rage," said another reader.
"Take off the kid gloves, John Kerry! Let's get down in the dirt and bare-knuckle 'em," said someone else.
"Hey wake up DNC! We need Kerry to come up with a strong recognizable slogan that sums up the failures of the Bush administration," said yet another responder.
Here are some of the other comments from frustrated -- and angry -- Democrats:
"If we lose because we don't hit back harder than they do, we deserve what we get. I am tired of Kerry getting beat up and feeling like I'm taking the hits."
"WHAT THE HELL IS KERRY WAITING FOR???? WHAT THE HELL IS MARYBETH [Cahill] WAITING FOR? Now is NOT the time to be polite ... it's time to FIGHT!"
"Why can't we be angry too? I sure am. It's time to start hitting back hard. God knows they don't have any restraint. It would be sad to lose because we're too civilized."
'General election sprint' begins
The Kerry-Edwards campaign announced on Thursday that it was beginning the "general election sprint" with two new ads that will highlight the fundamental choice in this election.
According to the Kerry people, that choice boils down to "four more years of an administration that puts the interests of the few ahead of middle-class families, or the Kerry-Edwards plan that understands a stronger America begins at home with good paying jobs, affordable health care, energy independence and a stronger, safer country."
Wasting no time, Sens. Kerry, Edwards and their wives planned to hold a midnight rally in Springfield, Ohio, Thursday -- after President Bush addresses the Republican National Convention -- then split up for four separate tours of battleground states.
Also on Thursday, Kerry supporters were holding a conference call to "preview" President Bush's Thursday-night speech to the Republican National Convention.
"Regardless of which issues Bush discusses -- Social Security reform, Health Savings Accounts, or tax reforms -- one thing that is constant: all of these are failed plans for middle class families that will move America in the wrong direction," the Kerry campaign said in a press release.
From another article on CNSNews, titled Feminists Compare Bush's 2000 Election Victory to 'Savage Rape' By Marc Morano I quote an excerpt:
"We are not some fringe lunatics, we are the people. We are the mainstream of America," she added.
The crowd carried signs reading, "Keep your politics out of my vagina," "The religious right is neither," "I don't want a president who believes that I am going to hell," "Keep your God out of my government, keep your laws off my body," and "War is not pro-life."
Earlier in the rally, U.S. Rep. Major Owens, a New York Democrat, warned a crowd of feminist protesters that the Bush administration is taking America "into a snake pit of fascism.....Owens also said the Bush administration 'spits on democracy' and is leading the country down a path reminiscent of 'Nazi Germany.'"
We are not some fringe lunatics, we are the people. We are the mainstream of America Behold the violent, vicious, paranoid LOSERS that constitute the MAINSTREAM of the DHIMMICRATIC Party, pretending to be balanced centrists capable of rational thought and emotional maturity! They simply will NOT tell their more extreme elements to tone it down or to consider themselves as an entity independent of the Democratic Party. Obviously, the more extreme forms of leftism now shape their party platform. And here we go, one more time, with the comparisons of President Bush and all conservatives in general to Hitler, fascism and Nazism. When will these ignorant DUMMYRATS and DHIMMICRATS realize the now indisputable fact that fascism and socialism are, for all practical purposes, one and the same. Even Adolph Hitler made references to that in his campaign for power in 1930's Germany, saying that fascism was a better form of socialism for German citizens. Everything that these modern "liberals" stand for - abortion, euthanasia, gun control, socialized EVERYTHING, an incipiently violent, lawless and STUPID utopian fervor in their political worldview, and on and on, can trace its intellectual origins back to fascism. Do I oversimplify? I think not.
With what? Spitballs??
ROTFL!!
Kerry can't hit back. He's a loser and everything said about him is true.
Hit back with what? SPITBALLS?
Stay Strong,
Fuzzy122
Awww,,,are them upset?
Are they old enough to understand what "tuff sh@t" means?
This is just the start, whiners.
After the GOP Convention wraps up things are going to get very, very ugly. IMHO.
ugly for whom?
A large fire at the Navy records offices.
Anger is such a wasteful emotion. It's so cool that when the GOP needs to put on that face, we outsource it to a democrat :D
Yeah. Go on, Kerry. Talk about Vietnam or your voting record. That will show them!!
I keep hearing them repeat this mantra about "lies," but as of yet none of them have so much as identified a single lie.
What are these people, from another planet???
Misguided hate and anger is all that has fueled these lemmings for years...just like the Islamofascists they appararently seek to emulate.
So, should we stand by for incoming spitballs?
Labor Day's gonna be interesting... we're having my Democrat brother-in-law over..
Lady, I wouldn't touch your vagina with a . . . nevermind.
If they are incoherent now, just wait until the other couple of shoes drop.
I think the difference is that we have stopped being angry and started thinking rationally instead.
Hes waiting for French approval to do that.
