Let's keep it simple: just purge every Democrat in Washington DC

[Padraig18]

That's a winning strategy for 2006--- just get rid of them all!

:eyes:

[JohnKleeb]

1. hahahah

sorry, hi. I shouldnt be here, *runs back to the lounge*.

[Padraig18]

2. It's not safe here, Kleeb

;)

[blondeatlast]

4. Pull up a chair, JK. You may find you like it here on the dark side...

Just avoid the God wars and you'll be fine.

[saracat]

46. Hey BAL, !

I was just on a thread where they were defending Gonzales. He was only doing his job! And Condi is qualified! Whoa. This is scary!

[KittyWampus]

52. Got A Link Saracat? I'd Love To See DU'ers Saying That...

what's that? Noone actually said that? THEN WHY ARE YOU?

[saracat]

64. Man, I 'd have to look for it, but they were defending Condi saying she

competant and Gonzales was just a waste of a vote. More or less. I know you meant to be snotty, but I thought I'd anwer anyway! Sheesh. And I remember the Gonzales argument. As WH Counsel, The Prez is Gonzales client. They were citing Gonzales's lack of cooperation as aTtorney client priveledge! Therefore, no accountability, not Gonzale's fault! Just representing his client ! Gag!

[genius]

26. Replace Republicrats with Democrats. If they support Bush, they opose us.

[Zhade]

29. Couldn't have said it better myself.

If they support b**sh IN ANY WAY, they are WORKING AGAINST OUR BEST INTERESTS. Period.

[imenja]

50. You're either with us or against us

sounds familiar.

[imenja]

3. yeah, for Karl Rove and the Republicans

sounds like a perfect plan for a one-party Republican state.

:nuke: :dem: and America along with them.

[Skidmore]

5. We are already a one party state.

[Padraig18]

6. No, we're not.

:eyes:

[Skidmore]

10. We sure are.

Rs say "Jump", and Dems ask "How high?"--regardless of the issue.

[Padraig18]

13. Oh, bull feathers!

That's such a crock!

:eyes:

[imenja]

9. fine excuse to go to bed and do nothing

If that's the country you want, you'll have it. All it takes is defeatism and apathy.

[Skidmore]

12. And the Dem leadership curls up into a fetal position

one more time and pulls the blanket up over its head.

[imenja]

23. and what the hell do you do?

You've already given up.

[iwantmycountryback]

55. Has it been doing that recently?

It seems like Congressional Dems have hardly been taking it lying down. From what I can tell, we are going to fight on Social Security, we got the most votes against a Sec. of State nominee since 1825, and they are going to be many votes opposing Gonzalez. And Dems have been very active in voicing their clear opposition to Bush policies.

[Beaverhausen]

7. Boxer is a keeper

[propagandafreegal]

8. ABSOLUTELY! nm

[Padraig18]

11. No, she must go too!

I'm sure there's at least one vote she's cast that someone here at DU disagrees with, and we can have no one who is not perfect! Ideological purity of the leftest kind is all that is acceptable!

[Beaverhausen]

14. Yeah yeah I know

:eyes:

[blondeatlast]

16. I heard she shook hands withTom Delay once.

She's soiled. She must go. :eyes:

[Padraig18]

18. STONE HER!

Uncleeeeeeeeeean!

[LittleClarkie]

49. Those among you who are without sin cast the first stone

Wait... That's a Bible quote... I must be one of those Religious Right people. Stone MEEEE!

[Just Me]

56. Whew! *LOL* I thought I was on another KILL KILL KILL the "Ds" thread.

It's been kinda' scary :scared: ya' know.

Geez. I've got a list of 16 Democrats who have become my heroes (and believe me, it takes a LOT of positive proactive GOOD to get on my list).

I want to focus, really focus my anger at those who are 100% responsible for actually creating and imposing the division and hatred and death and suffering that is borne by humanity. I have that list of barbaric predators, too!!! They are the ones who deserve "the club".

I want to focus my HOPE on those who are my heroes and those who need both education/information and ultimatums. They deserve my support.

[dolstein]

15. Why stop at DC?

Why not purge EVERY Democratic elected official EVERYWHERE? And while we're at it, why not purge every REGISTERED Democrat? After all, they're the ones who voted for the elected officials in the first place.

So let's start with clean slate. No elected Democrats. No registered Democrats. No party apparatus to speak of. And then, like a phoenix, a brand new party will magically arise from the ashes of the old one.

[Padraig18]

17. Brilliant strategy!

That would also make so many here happy! Why didn't I think of it?

:thumbsup:

[xultar]

22. You ain't said nothing but the truth. n/t

[welshTerrier2]

19. why should WE purge them ??

they've sort of been purging themselves, haven't they ??

[Padraig18]

20. BURN THE WITCHES!

:eyes:

[LittleClarkie]

25. They turned me into a newt

But I got better.

Burn them! They're witches!

[Padraig18]

28. Were they witches, or faeries?

Our party is infested with all manner of less-than-holier-than-thou sorts, you know?

;)

[xultar]

21. Agreed! K.I.S.S. Let's keep it simple. Let's kick'em all out and start

over!!!
Yea!!!!

[LittleClarkie]

30. Over my dead and smouldering body

DEM PARTY BACK WATCH... ACTIVATE!

Form of... a human shield. Shape of... a kicking Donkey.

[xultar]

54. Who was that...the Power Twins? I remember that! n/t

[LittleClarkie]

62. Might have been the Wonder Twins instead

The world's whimpiest super powers. One could only turn herself into animals, the other some form of water. My friends tended to make ribald jokes about the things we thought they should themselves into.

[physioex]

24. Let's start with that DINO....

LIEberman......

[Padraig18]

27. He's a defense/FP hawk, but ADA rates him well on all other issues.

Let's talk reality, rather than slogans, shall we?

:eyes:

[physioex]

35. That's the exact reason I want him out......

And his hawkish support of Israel.

[Dr Fate]

31. They are purging themselves by not fighting the GOP/media.

Just look at 2000, 20002 and 2004.

The old "Stay the course" "lets work with GOP/media liars & criminals so they will be nice to us" wing of the DEMS is doing that better than any old silly thread could do. Just ask Tom Daschele or Max Cleland.

I guess more DEMS need to learn that they too can be impeached, be accused of inventing the internet or faking their purple hearts-even if they play nice- b/f they start kicking some ass.

[physioex]

33. I agree partially....

Daschle was a DINO and a Bu$h Buttkisser to whom I say, "don't let the door hit your ass on the way out". Cleland was a good man and lost due to Rovian dirty tricks. Remeber these guys play dirty, very dirty......

[Dr Fate]

38. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Max- that is why I can criticise him...

...an honorable man- but he refused to listen to the voices in his campaign that were telling him to fight the smears against him.

Believe me, he knows that the "Lets be nice and work with the GOP/media" strategy is why he lost.

[saracat]

47. Thank you.I make that point ALL the time and no one listens .Sigh.

[Padraig18]

32. "Are you now, or have you ever been a member of the Democratic Party?"

To the gulagswith them all!!!!

:eyes:

[hippiechick]

34. Works for me.

:evilgrin:

[bush_is_wacko]

36. Another cannibalistic thread? What gives with you people. Our Dem's a

currently involved in a superb and well informed debate regarding Gonzales. The only people I have heard claim Gonzales will be confirmed are THUGS. There is a goal here. Part of that goal is to force GWB to have to answer for his crimes. The other part IMHO is to get the information on the record PREVIOUS to any bush attempt to drag this country into another war for democracy in another Arab country which will involve re-instating the draft. Also IMHO Rumsfeld should be shaking in his boots. The Dem's are going to go after him like rabid dogs!

Find something more productive to do with your time. There are any number of actions, petitions, letter writing campaigns, and GOOD causes to get involved in. BASHING the party is NOT one of them. Get over yourself will you?

[Just Me]

59. YES!!!! Time to start bashing the right bastards with our big clubs,...

,...while lending complimentary support to those who are taking a stand for the best interests of our people!!!

BTW: this thread was intended to point out the "cannibalism",...just in case ya' didn't notice.

[bush_is_wacko]

60. I'm never really sure!

It seems there are an equal number of sarcasm threads and REAL life weirdo threads from people that seem to think THEIR views are the ONLY views that are acceptable to this entire left leaning group. I am just tired of watching "mothers eating their young" so to speak. Thanks for letting me know this wasn't one of them.

[Wind Dancer]

37. I think you are missing the point.

This isn't about being a Dem or Rep, it's holding people responsible for atrocities committed by our country.

I can't support ANYBODY that endorses this nomination. It would be like saying it's OK to violate human rights, international law and rewrite the Constitution.

This is an extremely important decision for many of us. It makes me wonder what it will take for our reps to WAKE THE F**K UP.

What is it going to take for YOU to stop apologizing for Dems who vote yes to confirm this AG.

If you support them, fine but stop jumping on those of us who don't.


Edited to say:
I am extremely proud of the DEMS who are speaking out against AG.

[Padraig18]

39. I wouldn't be the only one here 'missing the point'

Who the f*ck urges the defeat of every Dem who votes for Gonzales or Rice? An absolute political fool who has no concept of the future, that's who.

[LittleClarkie]

41. I got it

Pretty obvious satire... after a minute of reading your other replies that is.

But some who feel that we should purge the Dems actually responded to you as if you were serious. That was kind of frightening.

[The Gigmeister]

40. No kidding!! Is this GreenUnderground.com or what?

There's a reason the Greens have never won anything on the national level.

[LittleClarkie]

42. Sometimes we are the Green Underground

And there are times when I want to say to the ones who state that they're going back to the Greens if the Dems don't do this or that, "Okay, bye."

If we don't represent the Greens interests, it's because we aint' the Greens. We is Dems.

[iwantmycountryback]

57. Sometimes it feels like we're on the Marxist underground

To be brutally honest. I'm a liberal but some people here are so far left they shouldn't even be Democrats.

[mzmolly]

44. ... or "SockPuppetUnderground"

;)

[LittleClarkie]

48. I concur

What do you think, Stinky.

"You're so right. I do so agree."

[AntiCoup2K4]

51. or DLC Intern Underground

...which seems to be the case in recent weeks.

[Cuban_Liberal]

43. Off with their heads!

:P

[JoshK]

45. I personally believe that a mere 90% purge might do the trick.

But I'm not positive that you're not closer to the mark than I am.

[Clarks_Babe]

53. That sounds like a fool proof idea to me

Their starting to stink like a meet locker with no electric.

[Grey Ranks]

58. Come on now...

I am sure that there are a few good Democrats in Washington. JustMe, who are your 16 heros anyways? Clinton? Gore? Steve the Garbage Man?

I could use a few more heros in the Democratic party.

[KissMeKate]

61. this is another "false choice" message

either we put up with the DLC controlling the party, OR we fire every democrat and have no democratic representation.

I reject your false choice. We can demand our representatives represent us, without giving up our power in DC.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

63. Naah. Let's just keep quiet while they collaborate with the fascists.

Worked for Petain.
