		<description>I have been thinking of voting for Chris Dodd.  Now, I am sure!  We do have a choice besides Hillary and Obama.  If we all cast a vote for someone other than what the MSM is ramming down our throats, not only will politicians get the message, but the idiotic MSM punditry as well.  Vote for Dodd, Kucinich and Biden.  Forget the rest!</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Wow, so only Boxer and Feingold have voted NO thus far? Pathetic!!

Comment by IronMan â€” December 17, 2007 @ 12:35 pm&lt;/blockquote&gt;

So, anybody else have any suggestions as to how we rid ourselves of these fleas?

Like the fellow at the Global Warming Conference said last week: If you&#039;re not going to lead, get out of the way.

Threaten to vote (R), and if we get no response, do it.</description>

		<description>One step at a time, I guess, Marcus. There has to be a plan to get from A to B, as much as I would personally prefer an Orange Revolution of our very own. With a Pres. and a safe majority in Congress, we&#039;ll have the elbow room to shake off the capitulatory D&#039;s, replace them with better ones, and get with the really important program of setting the SCOTUS back in balance.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Marcus - what are we to do? Draft Nader? As disappointing as the Dems may sometimes be, I donâ€™t really think youâ€™d rather we leave it in the hands of the Râ€™s.

Comment by tombaker â€” December 17, 2007 @ 12:17 pm&lt;/blockquote&gt;

We are to take their power away. This band of cowards do not represent me or the Progressive movement. They are not Progressives, they are wolves in sheep&#039;s clothing. The Dem leadership is who would rather leave it in the hands of the Rs. isn&#039;t that what we&#039;re witnessing?</description>

-jmh


HENDLER - My name is Tom Baker, and what I see you doing is acting like a pesky 8-year-old who thinks he&#039;s discovered humor.

You must&#039;ve missed my congratualtory post yesterday, where I let you, and some of the anonymously-named people from &quot;your side&quot; how much their vocabulary and usage had improved during the time you&#039;ve been regulars here. Do stick around, there&#039;s so much more you can learn here.</description>

		<description>President Bush has â€œa regular posse of eight to 10 cyclistsâ€

WHICH HE INSISTS ON LEADING....until he gets tired.  None of the other cyclists dare pass the Chimp on a bike until he says it&#039;s okay, and then

&quot;faster riders will zoom to the front.&quot;

How megalomaniacal is THAT?</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Attacking people on your own side for not being in lockstep with your reactionary tantrum is not useful toward your stated goals at all.

Comment by FearandSmear â€” December 17, 2007 @ 11:10 am&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Tantrum? Show me my &quot;tantrum&quot;.

You comments sound as if you believe the Dem leadership is on our side - show me some evidence of this.

I&#039;ll tell you who&#039;s not on my (and by &quot;my&quot;, I mean &quot;our&quot;) side: The Neocons, the Republicans, and The Democrat leadership. Vote for them at your own peril.

The time has come to either withdraw support for the status quo or to destroy it from within. Mark my words: either the Dems feet are held to the fire, or we elect the new boss, who is the same as the old boss (except they don&#039;t have the courage to abandon the sheep&#039;s clothing). These guys make Lieberman look honest.

If you think the Dem leadership is committed to the Progressive agenda, as I said: you&#039;re drinking Kool-aid light.

Does the Democratic leadership reflect your politics? I doubt it. Have they listened to their base? No.

So go ahead and vote for them. Reward cowardice.</description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;The posters on this blog are apparently no better than Harry Reid. Anyone here got courage? Integrity?

All type, no action.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Marcus, while your fire is understandable, the position you&#039;ve taken and demanded everyone else support is absurd - hence the chirping crickets.

Attacking people on your own side for not being in lockstep with your reactionary tantrum is not useful toward your stated goals at all.</description>

		<description>Jay, I&#039;d like to tell him to do that, but would, in fact, much prefer to do it myself.

BTW, I realize the Democratic Senate leaders are a bunch of corporate whores, but they are just a little bit more honest about giving tooth mark skull than the Repukes, so I&#039;ll not be voting Repukelickin to spite the spineless Dems.</description>

		<description>from the article on the 2nd Platoon: They decided as a platoon that they were done, DeNardi and Cardenas said, as did several other members of 2nd Platoon. At mental health, guys had told the therapist, â€œIâ€™m going to murder someone.â€ And the therapist said, â€œThere comes a time when you have to stand up,â€ 

Good for them.</description>
