13. Bush's grammar is so poor it's hard to know whether he was following
the Republican party line or just butchering the English language as usual.

2. I'm watching this.
I'm glad they did. Even if Tweety seemed to get a kick out of it.

15. If Tweety's the only one who will even point this out
than I applaud him for it, and wish that some of our Dems had a few more gonads.

5. Brian Williams said that it was written in the repug literature to
say Democrat party because it sounds more harsh.

9. He said it began with the 1994 election. He should know better.
McCarthy used the term in the 1950's. It's an insult, pure and simple....

8. The reason why some are really sensitive about it. It's support to upset dems
I guess that is why I ignore it as when the repukes don't get a rise, they abadon their kiddie line.
