Asshats of Democracy
For the first time in history, these House races will be national races. We will raise money for their Repulican primary challenger. We will raise money for the Democrats who opposes them. We will ask Michael Moore to make one of his 'movies' about them and run it as an advertisement in their local television market.

Hey asshats of democracy, it's 'Democratic' when used as an adjective. And Michael Moore has as much right to free speech as you do.

Deborah Pryce
Ric Keller
Bob Ney
Tom Reynolds
J.D. Hayworth
Candice Miller
David Drier
Thelma Drake
Bobby Jindal
Patrick Tiberi
Jack Kingston
Ric Keller
John Boehner
Michael Oxley
Rob Portman
Steve Chabot
Tom Delay

3. I would give the chief asshat of the day award to
Ric Keller. I noticed you listed him twice. He had to be the biggest "I don't have a clue but I want to go on the record" asshat that spoke today. Someone must have given him an old speech that McCain rejected for their convention to read today, then laughed at him because he did it. All the MM rant he was laying down was wayyyyyyyyyyy off topic today dude! He needed to get a clue!

As bad as the others were, he gets my award of most clueless asshat today. And lets not forget attention whore -- he begged time off two different people in order to complete his borrowed speech too.

He is a putz!

5. YAY!! Yeah you right!! Hey, lemme ask you something...
I bet you can name at least some of the House managers who caused the impeachment of William Jefferson Clinton. I remember some of their names. Why does no one seem to notice that SO MANY of those guys were THROWN OUT ON THEIR ASS in the next election they had after the impeachment?? McCollum--gone. A. Hutchinson--gone. Many others, too. I'll get the list if necessary.

STRONG FORCES had been pissed off by those guys. SOMEONE obviously made it his/her/their business to do everything he/she/they could do to unseat those guys.

So let's do the same for your list! And here's hoping there's a challenge to EVERY election they try to fix.

(Am I PISSED OFF at the republican party for foisting this demented Nero on us? You BET I am!)

And something else: people keep wondering if "the democratic party will split." I think people should use their brains: the democratic party is lean and mean now; it's not wide enough to split; it appears to me to be uniting every day; the party that has grown overly-topheavy, the party which has constant dissension (between its inhuman neocon wing and its semi-human wing) is the republican party--and that will be the party which will split, not the democrats.

6. You are correct I think
We are lean and mean and now even those with a D after their name know that this has awakened the sleeping giant (the voters) and we are watching them as well.

We the people of the democratic party have more power in our hands now than we have for a long time. Power to effect some change in not only the other side, but in our own party as well.

8. How many times did they bring up 911 today? Strange...
asking Boxer if she saw the scene in 911? Hey, wake up she lived 2000! Oh, that's right we're all f*cked up Hollywood types here. Wish they would have brought some election crime here in LA - we would of kicked some asshat ass. Oh, I forgot - Barbara already did!
