People talk about Dem. Gov Kaine (3rd nicest Democrat I know behind Genuine Risk and GB Bob)

Awww....

(This Dem is mad at her no-different-that-the-Republicans party on eviscerating the 4th Amendment this weekend, though. Loyalty to the party no matter what is definitely not a Dem characteristic. And they should be ashamed of themselves.)

Genuine Barfage.

maybe not for you, but there are certainly voters in both parties who will only vote for members of that party, come hell or high water.

Respectfully, though, Danzig, there are far more Republicans who walk in lockstep with their elected officials than Democrats. It's one of the Dem's big problems- they are such a wide collection of people with different agendas that there is no cohesion to the party, and no real sense of what the party is "for." And there is far more willingness on the Dem side to turn on their party. How many Republicans do you know who claim they are in favor of small government and individual rights, and yet they voted for Bush in '04, even though he spent his first term expanding government and gutting the 4th Amendment? They voted for a candidate who had four years to demonstrate he would push forward policies directly opposite to what these people claim to want. But staying loyal to their team was more important than how the team was going to play.

McCain has voted against several measures that would have increased funding for veterans; how many military people do you think will vote for him simply because he has an "R" after his name? Again, the candidate has made it clear he will vote against their interests, but hey, at least he's not a Democrat.

I'm not disputing that there are party loyalists on both sides; I'm just saying it's far from an equal balance. Which stinks, because ultimately, it doesn't matter what letter is after a candidate's name; it matters how they vote, and few people bother to really look into that. Probably because it would take valuable time away from watching American Idol.

Though right now, that answer is easy on what Dems in Congress are for is easy- they're for whatever Bush wants them to do. It's quite a situation when more Republicans approve of the job the Democrats in Congress are doing than Democrats do.

Do you all see the above?


Sounds like a party pooper to me.

I love it when people espouse the "walk the party line---for the good of the party" nonsense.I don't think I have to go into detail here.



And what did she say? That she is aware of internet traditions?













Oh really?












She IS an internet tradition.



The barroom actress..starring on Noway.


She removes herself from the fledging crowd by slamming American Idol.....yet would pay fine favor to get that far.


And you wonder why I call her Genuine Crazy Lady?








I'll bet Dannie is popping her claws out from under her paw pads as I speak.

[Mortimer]

What about you,Franny?



We have singled out potential fresh kill from the herd....take her down.

[Mortimer]

The thing is....MS. CrazyLady fears me.



That is why you will never see her answer me directly.

If it wasn't for her husbands Assistant to the StrongArm Secretary of the Actors Guild position....she'd still be a blow up doll.

[Mortimer]

Dannie...are you going to let her get away with that little American Idol slam?
