Peter Sean makes a lame post about how ppl at the DU are "stupid". And they are not. SIR. Joe (rightwing "Democrat") says, "We've been pretty lucky in Iraq, and most of the bad things that were possible simply haven't happened"!<br /><br />Dood! Cough! I am LMFAO! Um, exactly how much f-g worse can it get, man? He also thinks, now that we are in, we have to win. Uh-huh. And do polls support that position or reject it, Joe? (They reject it). Joe "hardcore Democrat" talks about how a bunch Republican in all but name only so-called-Democrat scum traitor creeps represent "the future of the party". <br /><br />Why, Joe? Because they act 90% like Republicans?! Oh and you can take your Rudy, McCain and Awnuld and walk a long ways away from me, pal. Or grab them by the arm and stroll over the Repug Party, which is where you belong.Robert Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16213140951444357431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8282587.post-1107161556877057542005-01-31T08:52:00.000+00:002005-01-31T08:52:00.000+00:00So, the Dems are making a fatal effort by not suck...So, the Dems are making a fatal effort by not sucking up to DB's position, which is held by about 40% of the electorate. It is to laugh! Michael, the Marine, wants to "screw the world up faster". Sir, put on your uniform and head on out there, to screw up the world for democracy, it's your calling. <br /><br />And he thinks the Dems are "failing because they hate America" even though Kerry won the election, 51%-48%! How can we be failing when we won, Michael? Oh, and Michael, strap on that weapon, big guy, and head on to Syria or Iran or wherever. In either case, I will be rooting for Syria, Iran, North Korea, Cuba, Venezueala, Burma, Zimbabwe, Belarus, against the US military. :(<br /><br />The Wraith thinks the Dem Party is actually a "regressive, reactionary party". It is to laugh! If it really was, the Wraith, a conservative, would love to vote for them LOL! Since you are a regressive and reactionary voter yourself, why complain, Mr. "I voted on the I Hate Fags Amendment" single issue guy?<br /><br />The Reivers can see into the future. He cheers on the BS election that was shoved at gunpoint down G Bush's throat by Sistanti and the guns of the Iraqi people, and plants the medal on Bush Wimp Bush's chest for caving in to the mullahs and the bullet! It is to laugh. Then he opines that the Iraqis will make 4th of July a holiday on the same day as the US because they love the US too much!Robert Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16213140951444357431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8282587.post-1107156212548812492005-01-31T07:23:00.000+00:002005-01-31T07:23:00.000+00:00Thomas the Wraith and BigDirigible, please stroll ...Thomas the Wraith and BigDirigible, please stroll your emaciated and bloated bodies away from our party, and do not ever come back. You are not wanted in the Dem Party, so get out and stay out, please. :) This whole post and the commenting following is all just more nonsense, crap, lies and bullshit. I am a Leftist, as such I am the extreme Left of the Dem Party (since I voted Dem last time). <br /><br />The people I associate with vote Democrat and are liberals to leftists. Not one of them has anything good to say about the Iraqi resistance, not one, especially in its latest incarnation. I have not yet met one liberal American human being who has anything good to say about the Islamofascists in Iraq, or anywhere else. <br /><br />Simply, most liberals and leftists in the US absolutely cannot stand these people. You hop on over to DU and see one person ranting away. I actually associate with these ppl for decades, and you do not! You meet them for 10 minutes on the web and you knew them your whole life. <br /><br />JZ thinks your average liberal Democrat supports Islamofascism - JZ knows nothing. DBLight growls that the Dems "are making a grave mistake undermining the war effort"? Oh really DB? Now that a majority of Americans think the war was a bad idea, a majority think Bush is f_g it up bad, and a majority think the whole thing is a massive clusterf-k?Robert Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16213140951444357431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8282587.post-1107133934166764542005-01-31T01:12:00.000+00:002005-01-31T01:12:00.000+00:00Unfortunately, Joe, to outsiders (i.e. those who a...Unfortunately, Joe, to outsiders (i.e. those who are not geeked out by insider politics -- although I'm certainly one) it sure looks like the DU loons are waaaaaay more than a fringe of the party. It's hard to show much of anything there that hasn't been recently said (although perhaps in softer words) by Pelosi, Reid, Boxer, Kerry, or Kennedy. Non-hardcore citizens have little reason not to believe that DU DKos Michael Moore et al are not the center of the Democratic party rather than a fringe. Until some notable Democrat (Anybody? Anybody? . . . Hilary?) has the guts to have a Sister Souljah moment on their crazy asses, the average public will think they are the major part of the Democrats.<br /><br />JorgXMcKieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8282587.post-1107131372239792032005-01-31T00:29:00.000+00:002005-01-31T00:29:00.000+00:00Ok, I went to take a look at the new Democratic pa...Ok, I went to take a look at the new Democratic party at NewDonkey.com:<br /><br /><I>The Bush administration, dating back to its negligent preparations for winning the war and the peace, has done little to make this day the triumph of democracy it has so often predicted.</I> <br /><br />Sounds like the same old, same old to me.DaveGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16015349658680998609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8282587.post-1107129289278138602005-01-30T23:54:00.000+00:002005-01-30T23:54:00.000+00:00Gotta say, though, that any Democrat who wants to ...Gotta say, though, that any Democrat who wants to brag about his party's "two centuries" of success, has got either a really short memory, or a really nasty notion of what qualifies as "success".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8282587.post-1107128150372793652005-01-30T23:35:00.000+00:002005-01-30T23:35:00.000+00:00I'm a hardcore Democrat, and if people like Shiner...I'm a hardcore Democrat, and if people like ShinerTX ever represent anything but the lunatic fringe of the left, I'd leave the party in a heartbeat.<br /><br />As the poster a few above me said, "Two parties fighting *for* America". I'm a Democrat because I love America, not because of some 'we are the world' bullshit about how we occupy no special moral ground in the world (because we do).<br /><br />I opposed the war in Iraq, not because I was against the principle (starting a democracy in the Middle East was a Good Thing) but because of the giant potential for things to go terribly wrong, such as a fundamentalist revolution in Pakistan overthrowing the government and giving the Islamofacists their first unfettered access to nuclear weapons. We've been pretty lucky in Iraq, and most of the bad things that were possible simply haven't happened.<br /><br />But the Democratic party needs to seriously establish the idea that "Now that we're in, we own it, and we need to do everything in our power to make Democracy succeed."<br /><br /><br />DU doesn't represent the future of the Democratic party - they represent a fringe which we will hopefully marginalize and force out of our ranks. The New Republic represents the future. NewDonkey.com represents the future. Simon Rosenberg, a great candidate for DNC chair, represents the future.<br /><br />I can't be a Republican anytime soon - As much as I might have a few neoconservative leanings, the way the machinery of the Republican party operates just makes my blood curl sometimes. But if you guys make Rudy, McCain, and Arnold the new face of the party, force out the "Our-Country-is-a-Christian-Nation-and-the-Gays-are-Sinful" types into eternal third party status", and the Democrats continue on the path they're on -- you'll win over me, and a lot of other sane center-left voters out there.Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12596835688046275796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8282587.post-1107127376683551042005-01-30T23:22:00.000+00:002005-01-30T23:22:00.000+00:00For whatever it's worth, I think that the "joatsim...For whatever it's worth, I think that the "joatsimeon" posting on that thread is <A HREF="http://www.blogger.com/r?http%3A%2F%2Fhem.passagen.se%2Fbohjohan%2Fbooks%2Fagainst%2Fagainst_p.htm">S.M.Stirling</A> who is a well-known alternative history science fiction writer - who tends to give his stories a fairly hard military edge. He's the guy who wrote the Draka novels, if you know the reference. His posts help to elevate the usually low level of intelligence over at DU, such as when he points out, accurately, that Iraq was a Soviet client which "is where they got all the T-72s."<br /><br />Nice to see that not everyone at DU is a complete nimrod.Peter Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10710410499391419230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8282587.post-1107125961160937392005-01-30T22:59:00.000+00:002005-01-30T22:59:00.000+00:00Of course they took down the post defending the fr...Of course they took down the post defending the freedom to vote, even though it didn't violate any of their posting 'rules.' They can't allow such articulate dissent to be read. <br /><br />I've said it before and I'll say it again, it's the anti-Democratic Underground. They think they are 'Progressives' but a more accurate term is Regressive. <br /><br />DU is the best site to watch the once-great Democratic party devolve into a reactionary force. Scholars will study it in years to come.
