An apology to all DUers
Some time ago I said I wouldn't vote Dem again.

Well, I flipped channels and heard the Dem senator from Nevada (?) talk. MANY points slamming *, social security, the lot - especially after *'s comments today about questioning the system and a high level bond. (this was about 5:30PM when I tuned in) The one who followed, also a Dem, also had pressed home more about our slopartist-in-chief.

Damn straight I will vote Dem again, and I apologize for my outburst.

I beg forgiveness, especially if you had put me on ignore because of my tirade.

9. There's hope for you yet, my flaming friend,,,
You are one of those who I really enjoy disagreeing with because you actually argue with logic!

4. Ha when was this?
Was it right after the election?

If you want to make up for it though, you could share your story on occasion with other would-be defectors.

10. Under 2 weeks ago... Newsweek mag article and the aftermath of
the bulk of both parties signing for the atrocious bankruptcy "reform" bill.

But there are signs our country still is a 2 party system. Fortunately!

12. That bill does very much suck.
I was very disappointed too, but I still think the only way out of this weakness on the part of the party is to have their back through thick and thin though. We gotta get as strong as the Republicans, get an echo chamber going like they have, get lots of people informed on our issues with our own talking points. I think we'll get there, especially since they keep shooting themselves in the foot, but it might be a slog we'll have to tough out. The further-right in their party slogged through a pretty moderate Nixon and Ford who had pretty centrist ideas compared to the Republicans now, stuck with it, and is now enjoying success; I think we'll do that too, and learn a lot along the way.

8. I'm glad to see you
have processed your anger appropriately. You anger has been justified....just keep pushing our current democrats to the line! Or, we can just vote in new ones. O8)
