You don't get it.

I get it just fine. Guys like you would rather insult guys like me than face unpleasant possibilities which threaten your world view and dogmatic ideology.

If anything, the Democrats today seem to have become what I would call the party of "unrestrained pessimism"

That's not true...but it's true enough. FDR wouldn't recognize them.

you guys

Stop using that ridiculous phrase. It only labels you as an idiot. I'm not a Democrat...and you're speaking to me. Not "you guys".

FDR and Kennedy never campaigned on the basis of how awful things are going to be

FDR didn't have to tell anyone how awful things were going to be. They already were...thanks to guys like you. JFK lived during a great time. My time. If only there'd been no Viet Nam war. But he was killed, and there was, and, once again, noone had to tell people how awful things could be.

Nice job, liberallarry:

You objected when jpl used the term "you guys".

Your response was:
Stop using that ridiculous phrase. It only labels you as an idiot. I'm not a Democrat...and you're speaking to me. Not "you guys".

A few lines later you write:
They already were...thanks to guys like you.

liberal = hypocrite

No, I'm afraid that you don't get it at all. It must be really awful to be so miserable; the fact that you have the luxury to join us here in debate by definition has to mean that you have a pretty darn good life.

Keep on trying to sell that doom and gloom message though, and see how far it gets you.
