If Democratic "leaders" accept electoral fraud...
Edited on Wed Jan-26-05 04:16 PM by RaulVB
DON'T STAND UP AGAINST A CRIMINAL ON THE STATE DEPARTMENT AND DO NOT OPPOSE A TORTURE ENABLER FOR AG...what would be the future of the "American Democracy"?...

How can this be possible?

2. Spineless Cowards
That's why people like Kerry are so important – Beltway Insiders who still serve their constituents and their oath.

4. I agree
Is time we understand that we are doing them a service here. I guess this is the only direct contact they have with REAL people.

9. It's called survival
The "old way" isn't working for the Dem party. They are steadily losing power, and I believe are even in danger of alienating/losing their base. Without a "new honesty", I think they are in danger of even becoming a "third rate" party. It has happened recently. In France, the long-powerful liberal party slipped from a significant second to a minor third place.

I think politicians like Boxer and Conyers are leading the way for the Dems "out of the wilderness". And if Dean gets the party chair it will be a good sign. I just hope the Dem powers-that-be have the sense/courage to support the needed changes.

5. Time for us to become the leaders, eh?
They do hear us. Sen. McCain as much as said today that there is a strong undercurrent of questioning the election. It's evolving. We are taking the reigns of freedom.

7. "If?"
The only way out of this mess is for the people to rise up. Same as it ever was.

The American Revolution comes to mind...

12. Well, if you want to put it THAT way
Weren't there Democrats on the Warren Commission? (That's when I mark the start of the death of democracy.)

In fact, haven't there been Democrats closing their eyes and holding their noses for a good long time now? Didn't Democrats let the BCCI and S&L and IranContra scandals die untimely deaths? More nails in the coffin. ANything these bastards and criminals got away with only made them stronger and bolder, until voila! we reach today, where we have grown a monster and are suddenly a little surprised about it. Shouldn't be, it's been a long time coming.
