changing the language won't help if we keep letting the repugs set the topics.

We need to do ONE THING that we haven't done worth a shit for about ten years.....set the agenda.

We spend so much time responding to them that our message gets lost and that needs to stop.

We need to just ignore them and start putting legislation on the floor that makes sense and advertise the hell out of it.Get on Meet the Press and the today show...ANYWHERE we can get a microphone.Make damned sure the repugs can't ignore what we are proposing.

We need to start FORCING the hands of the repugs.Make them go on record voting no to good legislation.Then use their votes against them.

We have the agenda and the issues...we have just done a piss poor job of forcing the repugs to show their hands by voting on OUR issues.If we can bring our aggenda to the public better and force them to vote against it...we take back our government.
