Delay says the enemy is the left
He was caught on tape. Do they even recognize election results?

Would Delay tell us if the majority of the American people are the enemy.
Seriously they sound like right wing dictators and their goons.

KO just played the Delay clip.

3. The majority might have voted for Obama, but the majority is not left
I still think that America is a conservative nation, in general. Obama just happens to be the right guy at the right time for a lot of them. Funny how when things get tough people start to see the light.

17. No Most Americans Are NOT Conservative They Want
Abortion to remain legal
Support same sex marriage
Want universal health care
Want higher taxes for the rich
Want us out of Iraq & Afghanistan
Support a living wage
Care about the environment
Would like more mass transit
Care deeply about public education

Obama did not get elected because CON-ASSITIVES think he is the right guy, CON-ASSITIVES did not vote for him, the good fair thinking majority of Americans voted for him because he respects their views.

We are NOT a CON-ASSITIVE nation. Really please stop that kind of rhetoric. It just pushes the Faux meme. Americans might not be far LEFT but they are fair and concerned. CON-ASSITIVES are greedy and nasty. Most Americans are neither of those two things.

5. Actually, it's been my observation that most Americans
Are further left of centre than they think they are, they just have a media-spawned horror of appearing "commie." And no, I'm not being facetious.

Media down there is a 24/7 diet of loonyness. I'm all for taking the skeletons out of the closets, so to speak, but it's best if one doesn't then put them on the media.

9. That was an insightful observation...
That was an insightful observation, and 'loony' does seem to be an apt description. Something to think about... :hi:

(And no, I'm not being facetious either)

16. I agree.
The cachet (connotations) of 'left' have been successfully demeaned. People like to claim labels that are EXPENSIVE and popular. Ralph Lauren. Chanel. Etc. For the boob-tube-heads the label 'moderate' just sounds "nicer." When it comes down to how they really want to be treated, it's "liberal."

6. You don't mean Tom Delay do you? I can't believe that could be true.

8. Delay says the enemy is the left...
over cockroaches that he neglected to catch and eat before he came on the show. I always think a cockroach will crawl out of his nostril or ear, or out of his collar and onto his shoulder, like that Stephen King movie with all the roaches.

La Coocaracha playing in the background...

This man is smug and deserves prison, not prime time airings.

11. Oh yawn.
After nearly 8 years of * and Cheney saying that those who don't support their war and warmongering weren't patriotic, this is just more of the same bullshit from the RW. According to them, we're

Godless
Unpatriotic
Terrorists
Commie Pinkos
Big Spenders
Undisciplined

It's the same old thing. They have nothing new to offer, no ideas, no solutions. It's just the same old cut taxes, cut spending, let the market sort things out. Not working too well, eh? What I can't understand is why they don't get that it isn't working. It seems that the American people do.

Rant off.

14. exactly. They don't believe in Democracy anymore. They are at war with us.
Idiots. That tactic has failed. The Confederacy is over, asshole. Learn to pull with us (the majority of the American People) instead of off in your own creepy slave owning direction.

15. They never believed in democracy/freedom
They only believed in capitalism-which is the equivalent of "freedom" in their fascist philosophy.
