Background here:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=385&topic_id=417139&mesg_id=417139

Since this is not a natural Yes/No poll, I'll post a range of options:

[Sarah Ibarruri]

1. Jane? Is that you? (and you've brought your palsies with you?) nt

[Junkdrawer]

3. Seems like a fair range of options to me, but I guess that Rahm's defenders...

would be unhappy with any poll other than a range of horrible deaths for Jane.

[Sarah Ibarruri]

9. Oh so it is you, Jane! nt

22. Again, I do not accept $ from Repukes like Ralphie, nor do I worship at the ass of

Grover Norquist like Janie.

Stop accusing me of either of those behaviors. Blame your own leaders, Ralphie and Janie of being Repukes.

19. Jane, to the Firebaggers...

[Junkdrawer]

21. Project, much?

[WeDidIt]

23. She's the one who set her flying monkeys on the blogosphere

to support her stupidity.

I'm just waiting for somebody to dump a bucket of water on her, but it;s more likely Norquist will drown her in the bathtub, and her little firebaggers, too.

2. Go Jane, you're a true progressive...

... it's well past time for the day to throw Rahm off the boat; he's proven to be little more than our own Captain Queeg.

If this "investigation" moves us closer to that day, so much the better.

Then, just then, maybe we might start to enjoy all of that true and actual progressive "hope and change" promised to us by the President during his campaign.

4. There is no real reason for all this acrimony.

Do you want health care reform or not? Lots of attention seekers out there.

[TeaBagsAreForCups]

29. "Do you want health care reform or not?..."

... the operative term being "reform."

[varelse]

5. Other

I support the demand for transparency but I'm very puzzled by the decision to ally with Norquist.

I will say that this whole episode has made me curious to learn more about Grover Norquist, though. I wonder how many conservatives are expressing essentially the same concerns about his alliance with a progressive, pro-big-government liberal blogger.

7. Michelle Malkin can't stand that he partners with liberal groups. nt

[Junkdrawer]

8. I have had the same thoughts. Rahm is obviously pro-corporate...

so why would Norquist agree to take him down? Then I remembered that we have an oligopoly, not a dictatorship, so there are a range of competing interests at the top.

6. Walk into a bar..

Ok, so how does the rest of the joke go?

[Junkdrawer]

11. The bartender says "We don't serve weasles here"....

And Jane says "It's OK, they're with me."

[Sebastian Doyle]

12. Grover the unfriendly monster and Rahm the angry dwarf should share a prison cell

since they are both treasonous swine, both guilty of the same thing. Enabling corporatist fascism.

[dhpgetsit]

13. I think we should partner with people on the right when we the cause is good.

For example I think we can definitely enlist tea-party types to oppose WTO and some of the evil trade agreements that are costing us jobs.

[davidwparker]

14. +1

[Cessna Invesco Palin]

16. Other: Nobody cares. What the fuck is wrong with you people? n/t

[JVS]

18. Other: when I see a red hot poker being thrust at Rahm's ass, I don't give a shit who is wielding it

[tnlefty]

24. *snort*

Really, love your response and it made me snort. :toast:

[TeaBagsAreForCups]

30. Touche' !

:beer:

[LWolf]

25. Other:

I don't know enough about Hamsher to take a solid position.

I dislike Rahm Emmanuel as much as I do Grover Norquist.

Anything legitimate that clips Emmanuel's wings is fine with me.

[havocmom]

26. ... walked into a bar

(only way to save this one.)

[dkf]

27. Wow this is a pretty strong indictment of rahm.

Good. The guy is useless

[Junkdrawer]

28. I did a poll the other day and 86% think Rahm needs to go....

[ProSense]

32. Yup, less than 100 DUers

call the AG right now.


:rofl:

[dkf]

33. He has 13% support. That is George Bush type numbers.

[madrchsod]

31. rahm is a neo- republican! ..no wait.... he`s a neo- liberal!

he`s everything to everyone!

someone cue-up Cream`s "Politician"

[juno jones]

34. Why aren't we discussing the fact that Rahm is up to his eyeballs in

improprieties with Freddie and Fannie and whatever, Jane and Grover are WWC, they are Jerry Springer, they are Brangelina.

What a fucking distraction.

If there is evidence Rahm did us wrong, abused his post and betrayed the people, then all means it should be looked at. We have DO a transparent damn governmment and all, right everybody? :puke:
