Democratic National Committee...

[Wuptdo]

This is a very important issue for Democrats; i.e., who is going to be the big boss. Therefore I have started a new thread on this issue. Please feel free to add to this posting when good information is found.

Howard Dean had a lot to say this weekend:

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/wn_report/story/276020p-236422c.html

Wow, Howard Dean really hates Republicans. Isn't that a "crime?"

Wuptdo B-)

[johnb]

You just don't get it do you Wup?

Senator Robert Byrd, DONKEYKKKRAT - WV, is the only former Klansman in the US Senate. He is given a free pass over his segregationist views and his patronizingly antiquated terminology when referring to blacks.

The press is strictly "hands off" when it comes to Senator Kleagle. Yet when Senator Lott, who was never a member of the Klan, praised Senator Strom Thurmond for his military and political service he was cruxified because back in the 1950's Thurmond was also a segregationist. Don't you see how that works? DonkeyKKKrats can be Klansmen and that's fine, anyone else gets cruxified if the hard left can bend something they say and derive meanings the speaker didn't imply.

Oh, that's the new spelling now....as long as West Virginia is represented in the US Senate by an unrepentant former KKK recruiter (I am not exaggerating nor fabricating) and the DNC and the party members in public office remain silent, the Donkeys are now DonkeyKKKrats.

JohnB,

Did you really want your last post here (see above) on this subject. I think it might fit better under "National," under the thread "Political Correctness."

If placed under the other thread, then you are preaching to the choir, cause I do get it - double-standard, media bias, or moonbat delight. Every black elected official in this country should be outraged -- but you can hear only pins dropping. But, JohnB, I want to hear from MattD, Stan, Rono or Cathy on that issue. Their silence is killing me (and our country for that matter).

Back on Topic. So, JohnB, you think Howard Dean should be the next boss of the DNC? I like Dr. Dean. He is a man of passion, and can probably take the "party" back to the left side of the spectrum, where it's core supporters are waiting - DU, Daily KOS, George Soros, Babs Boxer, JF Kerry, CBS, NBC, CNN, NAMBLA, TUW, Teddy (I will have that drink now) Kennedy, HRC, and of course, the grand dragon, Sen. Byrd.

Wup,

It has always bothered me VERY much when intelligent people become partisan to the point that they REFUSE to examine a candidate objectively.

This is the type of grassroots support that fuels so much bad bahvior and dishonesty in some of our elected and non-elected 'public servants'.

The evidence and the skuttle as of late is that the level of partisan insanity is now to a point that could prove dangerous for this Republic that we live in.

Where is it going to go from here??

I have always admired Thomas Jefferson's view of government and this kind of stuff just keeps bringing to mind his words;

"I think we have more machinery of government than is necessary, too many parasites living on the labor of the industrious."
-Thomas Jefferson, letter to William Ludlow

The mobs of great cities add just so much to the support of pure government, as sores do to the strength of the human body.
--Thomas Jefferson

"The multiplication of public offices, increase of expense beyond
income, growth and entailment of a public debt, are indications
soliciting the employment of the pruning knife."
--Thomas Jefferson

"[A] rigid economy of the public contributions and absolute
interdiction of all useless expenses will go far towards keeping
the government honest and unoppressive."
--Thomas Jefferson

"[T]he States can best govern our home concerns and the general
government our foreign ones. I wish, therefore...never to see
all offices transferred to Washington, where, further withdrawn
from the eyes of the people, they may more secretly be bought
and sold at market."
--Thomas Jefferson

"On every unauthoritative exercise of power by the legislature
must the people rise in rebellion or their silence be construed
into a surrender of that power to them? If so, how many rebellions
should we have had already?"
--Thomas Jefferson

"My confidence is that there will for a long time be virtue and
good sense enough in our countrymen to correct abuses."
--Thomas Jefferson

Will "We the people" finally wake up and reject every extreme partisan ideology and ideolog and start the "employment of the pruning knife"?

If we do, then the Deaniacs and the Neo-cons are embarking on a kamikaze mission.

[johnb]

I *HOPE* and pray that Dean becomes Chairman. Like Lemmings the little DonkeyKKKrats will follow that loon right off a cliff.

I love this one Cathy:

"I think we have more machinery of government than is necessary, too many parasites living on the labor of the industrious."
-Thomas Jefferson, letter to William Ludlow

Parasites, according to Thomas Jefferson = Government Employees. Maybe we can get Susan Moran to comment on that.

[Cathy]

John,

I do too. They will seal their fate with that choice. I don't know how they could pull a rabbit out of the hat to win any election. Of course McAwful was pretty slimy. I guess he just wasn't a high profile nutjob.

And I like this one when I read the "blue state" depressives talk about drawing up the urban drawbridges.

The mobs of great cities add just so much to the support of pure government, as sores do to the strength of the human body.
--Thomas Jefferson

[Wuptdo]

At times, it seems like some of the postings are reflections of the Republican Party, however, to be fair and balanced, the following is provided (this is for you Cathy :wink: ):

Catchy tune!

Last night, while blogging, I entered the "Democratic Underground" website. I was a pre-net guy; i.e., life at 300 baud but, never in my life had I experience some much hate as I did in 15 minutes reading postings in DU. It was like (mental image here) falling into a full septic tank, but full of evil, hate, self-loathing, and despair. I think I now have a better understanding of what hell is. What is really sickening, is that these people are wallowing in their own $hit, much like pigs, and have no desire to leave. It is truly a sad, sad, place much like described in LOTR about Mordor.

This guy is so wrong and out of touch, it is unbelieveable:

Just another case of sour grapes (soaked in gin). Dick Morris needs some serious help.

Dr. Dean needs are help, please show your support by contacting local elected Democratic leaders. Let your voice be heard!

Wuptdo :D

This guy is so wrong and out of touch, it is unbelieveable:

I don't know Wup. Sounds like he could be more right than anyone else is willing to admit.

His credibility is nearly in the sh#tcan since he seems to go back and forth, though. He's the ultimate swing voter.

[Wuptdo]

Howard Dean is the new DNC!

Congrats Dr. Dean. :D

From the Sunday NandO:

Democratic direction?

The Democrats are promising "A New Direction For America." I would like to ask for clarification on that direction.

The stock market is at a new, all-time high, and Americans' 401(k)'s are back. Unemployment is at 25-year lows. Taxes are at 20-year lows. Federal tax revenues are at all-time highs. The federal deficit is down almost 50 percent, just as predicted, over last year. Inflation is in check, hovering at 20-year lows. Not a single terrorist attack on U.S. soil since 9/11/01. Osama bin Laden is living under a rock, having not surfaced in years, if he's alive at all, while 95 percent of al-Qaeda's top dogs are either dead or in custody.

Just as President Bush told us on a number of occasions, Iraq was to be a tough slog and made "ground zero" for the war on terrorism -- and just as Bush said they would, terrorist cells from all over the region are arriving from the shadows of their hiding places and flooding into Iraq in order to get their faces blown off by U.S. Marines rather than boarding planes and heading to the United States to wage war on us here.

I have to ask the Democrats: A new direction from these current positions means what to you, and especially what to all of America?

A very good question indeed. Any of the hard-core democrats posters on CP care to answer, or at least, provide your view on this "new direction for America?"

Curious minds want to know.

I know - It's great. The financial market has such confidence in the Democratic leadership, the stock market keeps going up, and businesses are investing in jobs! I believe that is the "new direction" they are referring to. Everything is improving, ever since it was clear they were going to win the November election.

Actually, it was clear that they were going to pick up seats in the November election for quite some time, but no one knew just how many.
The difficulty was in prediction just how much the republican voter fraud would dilute the outcome. ie, how many seats would the republicans steal back with the uncheckable, no-record electronic voting machines

Well - For starters:
1. Hold the Bush Administration accountable for their policies
2. Implement some of the recommendations of the 9/11 commission
3. New ethics reforms/ lobbying reform
4. A 5 day Congressional work week (versus the 3 days Rep gave us)
5. Bolster National Security (mandating full inspection of air and sea cargo entering the United States and shifts more homeland security funding to communities with high-risk terror targets.)

6. Increase the minimum wage
7. Cut the interest rate on student loans
8. Reduce the price of prescription drugs for seniors
9. Overturn Bush’s restrictions on embryonic stem cell research
10. End some subsidies to big oil companies

[DarylB]

Typical of Democrats of the past, all seem certainly to be overplaying their hand, as is true of my predictions. In point of fact, the
Democrats have every reason to fear more free-falling adventures, resulting from continued misconduct and "take them for granted" attitudes. Once the pedulum begins to swing again, it will a wrecking ball for Democrats. Life is truly funny, and very very fickle that way. Posturing and gloating are just going to make the eventual slide that much more enjoyable to watch. A further prediction, Nancy Pelosi will appear even more confused than that "deer in the headlights" look we all observed from Kathleen Blanco, and the Democrats will kick her to the curb faster than a stray cat with mange once it happens.

Ah yes... DarylB is back and, as typical, does not respond to a post - rather he tries mightly to overreach his position. Welcome back DB!

No wonder you are so confused if you believe this tripe.

My favorite question was:
In your opinion, is liberal media bias a serious threat to our nation and values?

I was waiting for the question:
Have you stopped beating your wife?


It was also really interesting how one of the question was asking what you were concerned with and it include:
"defending the unborn" and "defending marriage" but it seemed to leave out, "protecting a woman's right to choose what happens to her own body," and "not legalizing national discrimination against gays."
