2. Holy Shit!

Thanks, BTW... I thought they were just a random bunch, but they are actually organized within the party? (I'm from Canada originally, and still learning about US politics) That seems nuts to me! They are actually right out there as a separate wing! Smacks of mutiny to a sailor like me... I'd have em fed to the sharks in a heartbeat!

5. Blue Dog Democrats

I agree that any Democrat who ultimately doesn't support the president on health care reform should not receive a penny from the DCCC.

However, we probably need to proceed with caution on this one....most of the Blue Dogs are from the rural south (where I live) and let me warn you the Republicans down here are ABSOLUTE FANATICS.

If you don't believe me, just read the front-page article from Friday's New York Times about Louisiana politics (man, I didn't know whether to laugh or cry!).

7. Blue Dogs

If Blue Doggies are voting against the public option, they should cancel their government healthcare plan and return to the private sector for health insurance.

9. I know how you feel,

I am from Tennessee and trust me its not easy being liberal in this state. Hell I try to find a good talk radio station and all I ever hear is Rush. He makes me sick most of the time. On that note if anyone knows any stations that have liberal talk show hosts in TN I would appreciate it.

11. I'll check it out.

Thanks for the tip. I'm hoping I can find a station with Thom Hartmann on it. I listened to him today online for the first time and I really liked him.

12. Be Discerning About NPR...

Juan Williams, Cokie Roberts, Mara Liasson... SHIT HEADS.

NPR does Democratic damage control but has some excellent non-political programming.
