The following DU poster got quickly shouted down:

>>we have got to wake up and smell the ass kicking. bill clinton has shown the way to win. most real dems say that he was a republician, well so is most of this country, well at least the one's that vote. the others are just as happy as a pig in slop. they don't care who wins as long as they get their benefits. they don't give a rats ass about the direction of this country because they are all fat and well fed.
we have got to start appealing to the people who go and vote, and those are the folks in the middle, we have got to start pushing for tax reductions for the middle class big time. we have got to start pushing for improvements in the military, I say mainly for the personnel, not big time weapons. we have got to become the party of the small business man.

people are scared of the boggy man, and georgie is beating us to the punch. welfare is going to have to go, so will affirmative action, they are killing us with this stuff, and the people who get the most benefits from this will not even take the time to go out and vote. and don't think I'm some half ass repug, I'm not I'm just tired of lossing to the lying sob's. to win we are going to have to play like they play.

it's funny because this is what nader is hoping for. for the repugs to screw things up so bad that all of those fat and happy people I'm pissed at will lose that comfort blanket and get mad. the problem with that is we will be deep in a depression, and I just don't want to go there just to get somebody that gives a damn elected.


sorry for the rant, but man I'm so pissed off I don't know what to do.<<

Man, Democrats push for middle class tax cuts? They really are getting desperate ;^)

2. Yes, ACTIVE resistance
Please forgive me--I'm drunk. And I'm very sad. And I'm very, very afraid.
I have a daughter who is about to be born, for God's sake.
Her name is Isabella Grace and she's due on December 26. And she is going to be born into a fascist country. And she is going to be born into a country controlled by a mindless corporate media with no ethics and no notion of truth or goodness or the value of democracy. And she is going to be born into a country which believes it has the right to attack any other nation on earth at any time for any reason it chooses to concoct. And she is to be born into a country which hates people of color. And she is to be born into a country which hates its poor. And she is to be born into a country which hates women.
And she is to be born into an America who believes that George W. Bush and the Republican party are the best hope for our future. I say we provide active resistance to the theft of our nation. I say we gather in the streets and protest. I say that this nation is no longer America. It can be. It might be, if enough Americans still existed. If enough Americans still believed in the dream. As I say, forgive me. I'm drunk.
I'm scared to death.
My daughter is coming and I don't know how I will protect her against the horror that my beloved America has embraced.

This guy doesn't know it yet, but he will be a Republican in 5 years. He just needs to be deprogrammed.

(Quoting some bozo on DU) >>we have got to wake up and smell the ass kicking. bill clinton has shown the way to win. most real dems say that he was a republician, well so is most of this country, well at least the one's that vote.

What you have to realise is the Dems hate America. The only way they can win by deception. The only way the Dems can win is by pretending not to be Dems.

A classic piece of proof that the Democrats only care about power. They'll drop their most closely-held beliefs in a heartbeat if it might gain them some votes.
