It's a good read. The short version is, "Don't count on the Republicans losing all that much ground in the future."
-
I think the Democrats are going to have to completely rebuild themselves in a new image. The Republicans have beat them at their own game. They've created a package that has an incredibly strong appeal to stupid people. Big-spending socialism, nationalism, militarism, and a healthy dose of jebus. Joe Sixpack eats it up. Not sure what the Democrats can do. Hopefully it will be an actual alternative instead of the crap they have given us for the last 70 years. Until then, VFTR.

What's wrong with the Democrates? Their Morons.

The Democrats haven't offered any ideas. Their underlying goal has been to obstruct Bush at any and all steps they can. Whether or not you like Bush, this level of obstructionism has backfired on them.
I can respect people who disagree with my views. That's fine. But if you dont bring any other ideas to the table, yet make it your goal to block and play shenanigans, that gets old.

Sandy I've been telling you for years......being against Bush is not a platform.

There's plenty wrong with the Democrats, but this guy is getting just a little carried away:
The problem with that strategy is that, yes, admittedly, the president is a national disgrace, but that also reflects badly on the nation that twice elected him, so a large fraction of patriotic Americans don’t want to hear it.
Whenever I hear that my jaw just drops in amazement. Because no, the "nation" didn't elect him. 51% of the nation elected him. In fact, more of the nation voted to elect Gore the 1st time around.
So if Democrats are in such rough shape, what does that say about the Republicans? Were they in rougher shape than the Democrats only 6 years ago? Were they only 3% not in as rough a shape two years ago?
How about today, when Bush is at 35% approval, and the Democrats can come extremely close to taking over both houses of Congress in Novemeber? Who's in rough shape? We're generally talking a couple of percentage points either way at most.
So it's entirely ridiculous. They've both got serious problems.
.... And I have to say that my biggest problem with the Democrats is their willingness to sit there and just eat this kinda garbage instead of standing up and calling BS on the whole lot of it.

What's wrong with the Democrats? Theirs is the party of dependency, cultural and intellectual elitism, disdain for fly-over-land, drastic drawdowns of military strength, and a new isolationism.
And those are their GOOD points.
-
The words: Bush, Cheny, Rummy, Fascism, Neo-con, war-for-oil, ect tend to lose their luster when you froth at the mouth while saying them.
Again being against Bush is not a platform and that has been the democrats strategy for the last 5 years. It has yet to work but of course instead of trying to apeal to middle America, wich doesn't like to see protesters burning the flag and putting nazi symbols on the face of Bush, what do the democrats do? They put Howard Dean in charge of the DNC. Instead of thinking we are too far left they decide to go MORE left. Even still.....no platform just more Bush Derangment syndrome.

Uhm - The Democrats have a platform - are you kidding me? Do you think that they go around just saying "Bush is bad?"
Dial in the sweeping and patently absurd rhetoric, please.
There's nothing in anything that you just said that you can actually back up with fact other than the appointment of Dean to the DNC.
And this thread is (and was bound to) turn into some blank canvass where all the dutiful Republicans can impress eachother with their ability to recall that which has been pounded into their heads on the drive home for the last ten years.
Kudos. Mighty impressive.
But I'd rather stick to some facts - and if the grip is even tenuous it'd still be better than this.

Guns, you need to check out the Sunday morning "Talking Heads". FTN, MTP, TW and McLachlin. There is more than you think being discussed.
Oh, The Daily Show and Colbert Report will work as a substitute.;)

If by that you mean Canadian politics, then you're going to have to get waaaaay more specific. Because ya see, we seem to be just a touch more discerning when it comes to meaningless brain-dead rhetoric... as opposed to guys like you that have read the book, bought the film rights, seen the movie, the sequel and jacked the DVD.
Don't tell me to get my house in order. You know scant about my house - and you aren't kidding anyone besides your gang of 22 percenters.
And don't bother telling me that I don't understand your politics - because I could give you a clinic on it that would embarrass you. Don't believe me?
Try me. Topic is all yours.

Check your facts, Nash. You are either misinformed or spreading misinformation. Gore did not get a majority of the vote. Neither did Clinton - either time. The last Democrat to be elected with a true majority of the vote was Carter (and wasn't THAT a stellar success. :rolleyes: ). Reagan and the first Bush won with majorities of the popular vote. Then we had three consecutive elections where the winner did not get a majority (first two due to Perot, third one due to Nader). Then in 2004, Bush DID get a majority of the popular vote. Due to the high turnout (by US standards, anyway), Bush got more total votes than Gore did in 2000 by a few million. If I am not mistaken, Kerry got more votes than Gore did, too -- and he lost.

To do this, you and they would have to quit spreading your own BS first. I'm sure that isn't going to happen. :rolleyes:

"In fact, more of the nation voted to elect Gore the 1st time around." - Nash
It's too bad that you predicated your entire post on this being false.
It's true.

It's true.
By your original wording, I took you to mean either Gore got 51% (majority) the first time (which he did not), or that Gore got more votes in 2000 than Bush got in 2004 (also false).
By your edited post, I see you may have not intended it as such.
To the extent I misinterpreted, I apologize.
-
Huh?
My edit was to add in one thing at the end. I didn't edit the numbers nor did I edit anything that would change the context of what I wrote whatsover.
What a lame assertion.
Spare me the apology..... completely disingenous - a lie and a back pedal.

What is the first thing that comes to mind when you think about the Democrat party?
I think of Jimmy Carter.... that alone is motivation enough to vote Republican. I was nine when he left office, even at that age I knew he was a terrible president, and both my mother and father are(and still is) die hard Democrats..
-
Are we arguing the difference between plurality and majority?
-
No, we are watching the BBS equivalent to a sandbox fight in the 2nd grade.

The more radical Democrats of the far left, as opposed to the more moderate centrists, have been rabidly oppositional to Bush since the election of 2000, when he refused to roll over and play dead during the great hanging-chad multiple recount controversy.
In large part, the defeats of Gore and Kerry were largely the result of the failure of Democratic leaders to nominate a true centrist who could appeal to mainstream America. Whether fair or not, the perception of many average Americans was that Gore and Kerry were merely cleaned up and glossed over 60s radicals. That fact is reflected in the election day maps of blue and red states, which reveal in stark detail the Democratic Party's failure to make any inroads in the bedrock conservative areas of the country.
The hatred of Bush by the left wing of the Democratic Party is so bitter and vitriolic there is scant hope that there could ever be any reconciliation between them and the President. That hatred is reflected in the rhetoric emanating from the left: Bush doesn't make mistakes...he lies, cheats, manipulates, and attempts to subvert the constitution.
Unless the Democrats can abandon that attitude, and squarely face their own shortcomings and the real reasons for continued Republican control of Congress, then they will continue to lose elections. Control of Congress is decided by elections at the state and local levels, where familiarity and satisfaction with a candidate are most often the deciding factors in who the citizenry elect.
This is not a Presidential election year, so large portions of the electorate may not see the November election as a referendum on Bush. The Democrats may close the gap, but I cannot see them gaining control of both houses of Congdress. At best, they may only achieve parity of numbers...and the national legislature will become even more contentious than it already is.
Nominating Hillary Clinton in 2008 would only demonstrate that Democratic leaders refuse to learn from their mistakes. Current polls notwithstanding, when push comes to shove, many heartland voters will not trust her enough to vote for her.
So, Democrats need to plan their next steps very carefully...or they could very well shoot themselves in the foot again.

Fascinating, if not unbelievable.
You were 5 when Carter entered office and 9 when he left.
And based upon your observations during that time, "that alone is motivation enough to vote Republican?"
That's something else, man. Why am I not buying it?
-
based upon your observations during
yep...
based on a simple(child) observation. I remember Iran holding Americans hostages and him being powerless to do anything about it.. Then along came Ronald Ragan....
And now you know the rest of the story...
;)
-
The rest of the story?
How's about backing up to where Bush Sr. met with the Iranians in France, negotiating with them in order that they keep the hostages hostage until after the election?
Arms for hostages ring a bell?
So here ya've got this criminal spectacle of people being held hostage to make Carter look weak, and the Republicans trading the days spent in captivity for arming Iran.
You're right. It was a childish observation.
And the hostages were miraculously released on the afternoon of Reagan's inauguration.
-
Nash,
You "mis-underestimate" me. I am not a die hard conservative. I am not a Bush fan. I am a "southpark conservative". I see the current administration as an alternative to a worse scenerio. I don't defend Bush too often on this board. I don't think he's great at pushing conservative ideology.
But, I am a voter. And I have yet to see any major unity on any platform from the democrats that wasn't just anti-bush retoric. Democrats use the term WMDs as a punchline. Do you really think people respond well to that?
-
Hmm.... This is twice from you.
Care to give any concrete examples or are you satisfied with your own fiction?
-
personally the democrats are the stupidest people( the ones running for office) i mean this guy on the colbert report was like" ohh well we need to go tell bush how it is and some 1 needs to stand up for the democrats and we need to take away the troops in iraq and let them defend for them selves". lmao this is what he was saying. personaly i think bush is great for what he has done. the freaking liberals are stupid prettythanges and need to learn how to run something. all they want is our freaking money. the next thing i hate about them is that they always say that there going to fix something and how everything is all wonderfull. but u know they never even once say how there going to do it. lol they never say what there golden idea is. thats why there logo fits perfect. they are a bunch of jack prettythangses
-
I got an idea.
How about you go brainstorm with Gunslinger in order to come up with something.... real.
-
How about you presenting hard evidence (weblink, newspaper, etc.) supporting your claim of Bush, Sr. and the hostages in Iran?
-
Arms for hostages ring a bell?
yep,
of course years after the fact though...
Seemed to work a tad bit better than the half-assed rescue attempt authorized by a certain "weak" president...
-
In all reality if the democrats ever hope to win, they had best start embracing (and defending the 2nd Ammendment) and cutting back on social waste programs. Until they do, the Republicans can and WILL put up better winning candidates.
Nash care to bet another set of hockey tickets on the next election in 08? I'll make it clear, I am talking rinkside tickets this time. ;) ohh and not in the corners either!
-
Yeah, you guys have got to come up (or down) to Nash's standards of accuracy.
Quoting Captain Gunther Russbacher...wow. He is the source of your accusation about Bush Sr. cutting a deal with the Iranians in 1900, isn't he Nash?
Carter called for an investigation into these allegations but they were found to be unverifiable.
Russbacher...sakes. He claimed to have survived two assassination attempts by the CIA because some of his Navy Seals squadies ran the bad guys off the road and liquidated them.
If memory serves, Russbacher arse was in a heap of trouble and he was in a federal prison awaiting trial on misuse of government property, including jets for his private use, and misappropriation of funds when he suddenly "broached" this story.
Hardly trustworthy testimony.
-
Locally, I'm voting for a couple of democrats in this falls election. (I vote the issues, not the party) They are starting to understand that making the state "Business-friendly" draws more businesses to start their companies (or expand) in this state with tax breaks, which creates more jobs, and in turn creates more state revenue.

The same thing that's wrong with both parties. They have both gone to the extremes and there is no middle to vote for.

ujustdied's unbridled enthusiasm is about as entertaining as shadow Beetle's unbridled Engrish.

It's been mentioned but i'll add my own spin. Rather than identify the reason for their loss of power and make adjustments like adults the democrats are responding like a spoiled child by moving even farther left and throwing a tantrum. Those tactics may work within their own party but it won't move the less permissive adults currently in charge.

Top Democrats are increasingly concerned that they lack an effective plan to turn out voters this fall, creating tension among party leaders and prompting House Democrats to launch a fundraising effort aimed exclusively at mobilizing Democratic partisans.
-
the message i get from the photo is the fact that they can now drag the head down the street without getting shot. The fact they may have hated him is a sidebar given the fact that if there was a statue of Bush in some of those Iraqi towns, I think in some cases his head would be dragged through the streets. The diff being is that they now have that freedom.
The problem is many of them haven't figured that one out yet ...

If you believe this, you sir, well, I feel sorry for you. News Flash Reps and Dems don't give a rat's arse about us. Neither party accomplishes anything. It is nothing but a "big boy's club" where the rich will always get richer regardless of who get's elected.
To elaborate. Take Former Michigan Governor John Engler (R). He didn't do watermelon for 12 years. Roads really went to chit, but here we are getting tax hikes to "repair the roads" that were never getting repaired. Now we have Jennifer Granholm (D), not only is she a French-Canadian, but she is also as useless as ti*s on a boar. However, she HAS BEEN repairing the chittiest roads and highways in the Union. Bottom line, both parties blow, and to not recognize it is a definate oversight.

How's about backing up to where Bush Sr. met with the Iranians in France, negotiating with them in order that they keep the hostages hostage until after the election?
The above rumor was originally tossed around by tinfoil hat wearing leftists and never substantiated. Nash, you are either misinformed or knowingly spreading lies to try to bolster an already weak position.
Now put your hat back in the closet, post something with substance for a change instead of your usual leftist unfounded propaganda, or just go away.

yes Repubs and Dems both are crappy
Its just Dems want to ruin our country much faster
Limp Wristed Linguine Spinned Liberals

As a conservative, I'd like to argue with you, BGB, but on some fronts I cannot. I do not feel the current administration represents my views on things like domestic policy, including the economy and our borders. Bush had the majority in the house and the senate and got very little done on some subjects.... unforgiveable.
Bush purported to be a conservative on these issues but i do not feel he has followed thru. I'm disappointed

Nash,
Here is your first challenge, tell me about how you were so convinced John Kerry was going to win the election against G.W. Bush with your superior intellect and understanding of our political system.
That is just one of many times you have wildly wrong on this board.

The same thing that's wrong with both parties. They have both gone to the extremes and there is no middle to vote for.
Pretty dang close to my view as well Six.

LOU Dobbs has a solid editorial on the piss-poor Democrats (and piss-poor Republicans but mainly Democrats) at CNN:
The Democratic Party has played a major role in helping to pass legislation that is grossly injurious to middle-class Americans and their families. This Congress, Republican-led with complicit Democrats, has cut $13 billion in college-student aid, passed numerous free-trade agreements that threaten good-paying jobs and approved an unconscionable bankruptcy law written by credit-card companies that is nothing less than a federal government heel in the neck of American families bankrupted by catastrophic illness and crushing medical bills.

Representatives of Reagan did indeed negotiate with Iranians before the election. That is a fact. What's not clear is whether any deal was reached.

Negotiations between presidential candidates and foreign diplomats is nothing out of the ordinary. It happens every presidential election year. These heads of state use the meetings as an opportunity to try to get a handle on what to expect from the candidate IF he is elected.
Sure the meetings took place. No question about it. But Captain Kangaroo's accusations have never been verified. The Carter administration investigated them briefly and evidently found them to be baseless, for the matter was dropped.
Some of the very people who so strongly poo-pooed the rumors and conspiracy theories that surrounded Clinton are more than ready and eager to believe this one about the Sr. Bush.
This is just one more example of the Democrats refusing to squarely face their own shortcomings. They console themselves with strong delusion; We didn't actually LOSE that election, we were the victims of a conspiracy!"
Sound familiar?
-
I'd like to hear more about Bush Sr. and the Iranian hostage negotiations.
If it's true, I'd be very interested in learning more.
If it's not true, it'd be one of the few times Nash has partially admitted to slinging the old bull-ogna.
Can't find it now? Bwahahahahahah! I'd can just imagine Nash's reply if he called someone on a statement and got can't find it now as an answer.

Toad...look up Captain Gunther Russbacher on google. Visit more than one site.
Look for October Surprise.
Russbacher was in a federal prison awaiting trial for improperly using government funds and assets when he volunteered this information to investigators.

Yes I am talking about you. Your spelling, grammar, and punctuation are as poor as your grasp of current events. You seem like a nice kid though. Work on it!
The 3 R's are an old joke. Readin', wRitin', and aRithmetic.

I find it amusing that a person criticizes another for poor grammar then types the above grammatical mess.

Irony amuses me. I'll grant you that you didn't butcher the language the way your target did but, as someone levying criticism, you should be beyond reproach. Your sentence fragments are not beyond reproach.
Like I said, the irony amuses me.
