		<description>While I think this paints the Democrats as thin skinned, using it as a cudgel to demonstrate a sense of hostility; the absence of bi-partisanship the public is longing for, is actually a pretty good idea.

Calling them out on immature pettiness is quite purposeful in this context, but the sense of emotional wounding is unhelpful.
I really don&#039;t care what these self-important infants want to call me, but the fact that they are attempting to offend me is important to point out.</description>

		<description>Chowda, rule #1: While making typos on teh Internet is acceptable, making a blunder when lecturing people on their stupidity is a FAIL.
(you got the Orwell reference wrong.)

This whole &#039;Democrat Party&#039; thing is an exercise in what&#039;s called &#039;phatic communication.&#039; Because there isn&#039;t explicit hostile content, it&#039;s hard to object to it (as opposed to &#039;Dim-o-Crat&#039; or &#039;Dhimmicrat&#039;) but the act itself is one of aggression.
When I was in school, people used to call me &#039;Berno&#039; (my middle name is Benno). There&#039;s nothing at all demeaning about &#039;Berno&#039; &lt;i&gt;except that it is not my name.&lt;/i&gt;It was meant as an insult, and it was.
It really is a schoolyard thing--but it was also a demonstration of their control of the media. They were demonstrating that they were perpetuating this slight, and that the media would never step in to correct them. Ant it worked for over a decade.
Chris Matthews finally had enough the other night, because the little taunt was also a taunt at him. Bravo. He made it possible for others to do so.
And Bravo to Rep. Kaptur. Democrats now have the power to be just a little bit petty, to call for that little jab to stop.
And it can be used to illustrate a point better than most other ways: How can Republicans call for bipartisanship when they refuse to call the other party by their right name? Doesn&#039;t this show that they haven&#039;t moved one iota from their previous position, and expect absolutely all the motion to come from the other side?
The grammatical discussion is proper, but beside the point: it is the Democratic Party because we say it is. That is the fact that the Republicans are defying.  There&#039;s nothing wrong with the name Berno except that is not my name.

They no longer run the schoolyard.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Who cares what these clowns say? What does their supreme leader El Rushbo say?

That’s exactly where the term Democrat party came from.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
Seems like a lot of emotion here but nary a fact to be found.
Ummmmm......the term &quot;democrat&quot; party was coined by the &quot;democratic&quot; who founded the party.

But you did know that, right?</description>

		<description>Wow, reading a lot of the posts on this site reminds me of orwell&#039;s animal farm.  Lot&#039;s of sheep here.  Ya know, those sheep that stood there, grouped, stating, &quot;two feet bad, four feet good.&quot; 

Anywho....It is the Democrat party.  Ignoring the &quot;mcgovern rule&quot;--ya know, where the appointed superdelegates oppoint someone else instead of who the &quot;democratics&quot; voted for--the party votes for their leaders(s), no?  Or did &quot;Bush, Cheney and Halliburton&quot; elect obama as the democrat candidate?

Ya&#039;ll know when the democratics changed the democrat party to the democratic party dontcha?  And why they did it?

Why do liberal/progressives constantly re-define words/meanings to make their ideology fit the reality of the world?</description>

		<description>She CARES?

PLEASE keep calling my party the wrong name.

I&#039;d rather talk to your voters to explain you can&#039;t get a simple name right.

When you claim offense, you encourage them.  I wouldn&#039;t mind so much but now we look like big crybabies &quot;Ooo, mummy he called me a name!&quot;  Instead of just raising an eyebrow and asking, &quot;You DO know my party&#039;s name, right?  Just checking.&quot;

Then move on.

It&#039;s very ODD they engage in this behavior.  It&#039;s elementary school baiting and Kaptur acted offended.  Grow up, Kaptur.  It&#039;s beneath you to notice.</description>

		<description>Once again, the socially and emotionally retarded party proving themselves via overt reactionary name calling. 

These are really sick people who have been unleashed on a mission of sheer destruction by the big three; those who make money on the industrial side of the military/law enforcemnt, those who dig up the earth with little concern for human life and those who promote American inequality via financial greed. These people are a diseased infestation. They pass their mentally infected &quot;fecal matter&quot; via a belief system of superiority through religious indoctrination.   

At this point, yeah...I think I&#039;d rather be &quot;red&quot; than be a republican.</description>

		<description>Why don&#039;t we just call the GOP the Epic Fail Party?  Let a freshman D congressman say it, and when an R congressman demands that the speaker&#039;s words be taken down, the D&#039;s can just rip the R&#039;s a new ass with the rule book every time they say &quot;Democrat Party.&quot;</description>

Tweedster, I thought the same thing initially. But I think southernbelle just chose an unfortunate means of presentation.
