I am a Crackpot Democrat!
Edited on Mon Jun-06-05 02:52 PM by dchill
Saw this quote in a Newsmax article referenced elsewhere on DU.

"'Meet the Press' host Tim Russert became the first network newsman on Sunday to cover a British memo touted by crackpot Democrats as smoking-gun evidence that President Bush committed impeachable crimes."


http://www.newsmax.com/archives/ic/2005/6/5/134215.shtml

If realizing that the Downing Street Minutes is smoking-gun evidence of impeachable crimes makes one a "Crackpot Democrat," then that's what I am.

If a "Crackpot Democrat" is the opposing force to the likes of Russert, Mehlman, Michelle Malkin (it's one of her favorite terms, Google it), or any other right-wingnut - then I AM a Crackpot Democrat.

If wanting the truth about media culpability in every failed, evil, self-serving Republican policy (plot), then you might be a "Crackpot Democrat" too.

Well? Are you?

I may be a "crack pot" but that doesn't mean crooks aren't running the country!

<< edit a typo 'am' to "may" >>

3. I glanced away too quickly--thought you said you were a
"Crockpot Democrat". Had me puzzled for a second.

10. here's one
my Mom used to make burger beans.
2 cans of pinto beans
1 lb. of cooked ground beef
1 chopped onion
1 greed or red pepper (optional)
1/2 pound sliced mushrooms (optional)
1 bottle of bbq sause (she used just a basic one 'cause they didn't have all the different flavored ones back then).

put everything in the crockpot and cook on low until heated through. I think it was usually about 3 or 4 hours. This was always a hit a potlucks and such.

I haven't tried this is ground turkey yet, but that may be good.

Sounds good! I can almost smell it now - and it's way too late for me to be so hungry. Thanks for the recipe!
