  • Thankx youz

    Zylander Repulsikin Whynot the Third. Thank you for those few brief words of insight from the bottom of a well.

  • @mateostgo

    I've read your letter archive.

    You began posting here on July 24, 2008. Almost all of your 38 letters is devoted to the goal of attacking Barack Obama- either with a scare screed ("Obama is the antichrist"), or with needlessly divisive agitprop on behalf of a candidate who has officially lost.

    The remainder of your letters consist of protests of outrage against your critics here, who suspect you of being a shill on a Republican dirty tricks mission.

    I'm adding myself to that list.

    And no, I'm not interested in your ISP number, which you've previously volunteered as if it necessarily had any bearing on your credibility.

  • @mao

    I'm not interested in your number either, apart from your number being up.

    "Center Democrats" = Neocons

    The Democratic Party's troubles can be traced DIRECTLY with trying to out-Republican the Republicans, not with being "Too Liberal/Left". If the Democratic Party would finally embrace it's LIBERAL credentials, finally talk of REVERSING the Patriot Act/FISA/Corporate Criminal/Big Oil/Big War Agenda of the last 8 years, and take a hard left turn, it would be a beginning.

    Of course, they'd have to actually stop taking the Rule of Law and Constitution "Off the Table" to placate some imaginary base of "Center Democrats".

    Polling OVERWHELMINGLY shows they exist ONLY in the imaginations of Neocon Meddlers and Criminal Corporate MSM "Reporters".

    Take the EXACT OPPOSITE position of the Goose-Stepping Neocon Nazis, and watch 80% + of America fall right in line.

    America stands on the edge of a cliff, leading to a bottomless pit, and 5 more minutes of Criminal Corporate Control under Pappy McSame, would be plenty adequate to send us over the cliff, putting America in the History Books.

  • Bill Maher where are you.....

    "Kamarck: The worst thing that can happen at a convention is that it can in fact turn into an actual decision-making convention. The worst thing that can happen at a convention is that it can be real. That is almost always a harbinger of bad things to come."

    This may be the conventional wisdom (pun intended) but it undermines the democratic process. Isn't the point -- other than winning -- of the Obama campaign to change things? We regular people out here want to see a convention where it isn't carefully orchestrated and the message rigidly controlled and the passion completely absent. We want to argue or have our surrogates argue about the plank like in the old days and have people say what they truly believe and vote as truly want to vote. And we want demonstrations right there in front of us not off in a pen somewhere. Conventions without decision making are boring, contrived, and frankly disheartening.
