What value do you perceive in playing your numbers game? Do you think somehow it helps democrats? Do you think somehow there's some benefit in proving your mathematical argument? Please explain ...

All I can take from your posts is your anger at the Greens ... I see nothing constructive in that ... you want to be angry ... fine ... go for it ...

you stated that your vote helps "FIGHT BUSH" .. can Greens say the same? but you completely failed to respond to my post earlier in this thread ... if "FIGHTING BUSH" is to be recognized as a positive thing to do, surely you must see that many loyal democrats were horrified to see that so many democrats in Congress voted for the IWR ... your last post showed real disdain for the Greens' concern over environmental issues (i.e. "endangered striped tail alaskan caribou or whatever the fuck") ... and you conveniently dismiss as "voting their conscience" and as "ideology" the objections of many democrats and Greens to the votes by more than 75% of democratic Senators for bush's $87 billion to continue the madness in Iraq ...

Guess what? Many of us don't think that qualifies as "FIGHTING BUSH" ... and many think that if democrats think our votes are automatic, they may be less responsive when we criticize them for such fucking bad votes ... so please don't dismiss the devastation this war has done to the U.S. including its people, its troops and its economy ... and please don't dismiss the deep and lasting damage this war has done to U.S. prestige among the community of nations ... and please don't fail to understand that it is we, the loyal opposition, the ones who really do want to fight bush, who abhored the votes of far too many democrats who supported him ...

i find your entire premise hostile and unproductive ... you want to elect democrats? well so do I ... and you don't accomplish that by driving a wedge between democrats and any other constituency whether you agree with them or not ...
