With each day that we acquiesce to the Bush administration's radicalism, the more it defines the national character of our country.
  • Democrats = Republicans

    I have never worked for either party, except for a brief stint in college.

    Why? I went to the College Republicans group on campus, and when I went to the first meeting, read their group constitution. It stated that the purpose of the group was to support and espouse the policies of the national party. When I asked what if the local group or students wanted different policies, the only response was a puzzled look.

    I then went to the College Democrats, and found the same language in their group charter.

    I have supported individual candidates I liked, often based on how much they have varied from the national consensus. But the parties--no.
