If Democrats don't take the bull by the horns after the rescue becomes
Edited on Sat Sep-03-05 10:41 AM by Walt Starr
cleanup, they are FOOLS!

The photograph of Bush strumming a guitar was taken more the TWENTY-FOUR HOURS AFTER THE LEVEES BROKE!

IF EVERY GODDAMNED DEMOCRATIC LEADER is not out on EVERY GODDAMNED TALKING HEAD NUMNUTZ SHOW holding that photograph up talking about how this was George W. Bush more that TWENTY-FOUR GODDAMNED HOURS AFTER THE LEVEES BROKE, then the Democratic PArty is DEAD!

3. Time to be a party
that is for the people, and not corporations. If the Democratic leadership sit on their hands, we need a new party.

4. Democrats won't do it, but the people will.

I've just about given up on the Democratic party, except for the Congressional Black Caucus maybe and a few liberal Senators.

7. If the Congressional Black Caucus broke away and formed their own party
I'd be right there behind them.

6. The REAL DEMS, CBC, already did! I was so proud of OH's Stephanie Tubbs
Jones on Aaron Brown last night. the CNN clips of members of the CBC have been excellent!

As for the rest of the democratic party: :(

9. Dennis Kucinich has always spoken out
but for some reason goes unnoticed. I wonder how we can go about getting the voice of those who speak the truth out? Request them on talk-shows? I'm tired of Joe Biden and Lieberman and McCain. They are never consistent. How to push forward those who don't seem to get the microphone?

8. don't you mean botched rescue and botched cleanup?
If Cheneyburton performs as well in the Gulf as they have in Iraq, they'll have things tangled up in vastly
overpriced boondoggles at once.

Once again, LIHOP!!!

And the Democrats are both hands-tied helpless with parliamentary restraints and too cowardly to do what's really necessary here. We need to shake off some burrs before we can take the bull.

Or else it really is all over and China can just walk in and sweep up.
Why even do that? they already own us.

10. "they are FOOLS!"
That pretty much sums it up, except you forgot "traitors". The establishment dems aid and abet the chimp and his criminal cabal and they have utterly and completely failed to provide us with a viable alternative to the demonstrable criminal enterprise which now occupies Washington.

The time for revolution is now! Where it needs to start is a complete repudiation of the establishment democratic party by those of us who still have a brain and an ounce of "common sense". They don't represent anybody other than themselves. But they do provide a "fig leaf" for the criminal republican party and it's crimes against people for the benefit of corporations. Once we're shuck of them we can start on the real problem. BUT, we're going to have to be much more vigilant about being infiltrated and less circumspect about rooting out suspected infiltrators.
