Hearing rightwingers taking solace that Democratic winners are "conservative"...
Edited on Wed Nov-08-06 10:48 AM by Postman
These rightwingers have been duped into thinking that the vast majority of the Democratic Party is made up of leftwing socialists when the reality is something different.

America really has only ONE Party. The Capitalist Party, the republicans represent the rightwing of that party and the democrats, the leftwing of that party.

The vast majority of the Democratic Party are moderates and will bring the policies of the extreme rightwing back into balance...

Are there conservatives in the Democratic Party? Yeah. So what? Your solace in "conservatives" winning is based on the fact that you buy into the propaganda.

a society that gives us Social Security, Unemployment Benefits, Medicare...etc., etc..

Capitalism will always have Socialism to save it.

1. It's called DENIAL.
People voted for a shift to the left, and that's what they're going to get.

Idiots like Scarborough are simply trying to dull the pain.

4. Democrats overall lean left of center
Just because they're not radical fringe left-wingers doesn't mean that they're not going to pass some reforms that will make Republicans want to check into their local psychiatrist.

6. What a load of self-gratifying horse shit.
They're too fucking stupid or arrogant to realize and/or admit that people in both parties might hate their obnoxious asses.

7. The Dems who won are just Democrats. Period.
Some are left, some are right of center, some are moderate, some are conservative, some are liberal.

In other words, they're ALL Democrats. Period.
