Republicans Are The Enemy.
They don't compromise with US, and WE need to PERMANENTLY SHOW THEM THE DOOR.

HEY, how do we get some of our people out there to stop with their "WELL, if the Democrats don't put up a candidate that believes (insert your pet peeve here), I'm withholding MY vote!!!"

I've been a card-carrying SOCIALIST as long as I've been politically aware, and I've NEVER voted GREEN, INDEPENDANT, NOBODY who isn't a DEMOCRAT, and I don't call that selling out. I call it living in the REAL WORLD.

I have said this 1000 times: there is a name in this country for people who belong to the party out of power: POWERLESS.

We get DEMOCRATS IN, THEN we hold their feet to the fire, but you can't change ANYTHING with the fucking Republicans running things.

AS THE SONG SAYS: "There won't be any peace on Earth, 'til EVERY NAZI DIES." I only hope I will live long enough to see it, or to help man the barricades.

6. Pretty much
Its like one group against the other. I know we are a diverse bunch but this kinda division isnt healthy imo.

8. I agree....
If you view this group as a microgroup of the Democratic party....I think that it is a reflection of the Democratic Party....Diversity is a great thing...but we have to learn not destroy each other in the process.

Feingold comes to mind...Biden was one of the first out of the box to decry that Feingold was too impatient...among the many others.....

We don't have to agree with each other all of the time but we need to stop attacking each other.

2. I haven't really seen that
"WELL, if the Democrats don't put up a candidate that believes (insert your pet peeve here), I'm withholding MY vote!!!"

I have seen plenty of "Goddammit, I want them to fight back!!!"

3. I got yelled at the other day for saying why do we
Edited on Thu Mar-23-06 04:31 PM by MadMaddie
always have to play nice while the bullies are kicking us in teeth..They feel empowered because we try to play by the rules and they keep stealing more power and more elections....

Feingold pulled off the gloves and he received some praise but a lot of flack for it...Whenever a Dem stands up...there are people out there ready to knock him down and they are on our side.

You are right we will hold our Democrats responsible when we vote them in in November.

I don't mean cheat to win...I mean "Fight Back"!

Republican Neocons are the enemy to the Nations stability and future!!!

4. We are the majority
Look at every poll on any topic. We are the majority. We need to take out elections back and run the rethugs out of town on a rail.

7. Some things are simply unacceptable.
The tyranny of fascism has no place in this Republic. A line has long been drawn between the parties, a line they drew. The choice of which side of it to stand on is clear. I choose liberty.

My family killed nazis in WWII. I'm not making friends with them now.
