We really need people like you on our side, putting down the plans they have come up with....snickering and laughing at health care, affordable education, lower rates for college loans, etc.

I have griped before, but you are officially turned off....you and Radio Nation are off my XM now.

We have too many battles to fight for you to rip Democrats apart every week. I don't know The Nation's agenda or yours, but it is not my agenda. We don't even seem to be in the same world.

:(

The media did not cover the presentations by Reid and Pelosi on the Ed Schultz show. I watched them, and Durbin and Hoyer on C-Span, presenting a good set of plans to bring our country back to what it was. Nothing in the news at all, except ridicule from the MSM, and now ridicule from our own left radio.

Here is the search at Google on Democratic Party Plans, Pelosi, Reid.

Nothing at all much covered in the media, and now what she said will be stuck in the minds of those of the left. I call that destroying the Democrats from the left and the right, and I don't know which is worse.

1. sorry
by the time I tuned in she was talking about stolen votes and what the heck we were gonna do about it.

There are plenty of other pundits to bitch about. She isn't one of them.

IMHO

2. Not many left on our side anymore.
Not really. You listen, I will find something else. She does this every week. I figure it is a matter of how much we can take of blasting the party, and I reached my level.

3. I think you're wrong
She's mentioned this before lots of times. Our shining "democrats" are loath to even bring up the most pressing issue we face in the country -- criminal lawlessness in government. This is what has brought us the Iraq fiasco, looting the treasury, third-world health statistics, corporate giveaways, corrupt media, police state, election fraud, etc., etc., etc.

All we hear from what is laughingly referred to as "the opposition party" is simply more of bush, with a few rough edges shaved off.

Frankly, I don't see any reason to vote at all in this scenario. It looks to me like even if the democrats were to gain control of both houses of congress and the presidency, there would be little difference in policy direction than what we have now.

5. I think our party is far superior to their party. I am sorry you don't.
I get angry with the way they have been voting, but in the long run...they are far better than the ones running the country now.

People think the Democrats are no good because the right wing media, the corporate media, and left wing radio say so.

It is really a shame.

6. I thought the "no difference between dems and reps" BS
would have gone away after Bush was inaugurated instead of Gore. So if Gore was president, we would still have Alito and Roberts on the bench, the Katrina disaster, Iraq, etc?

Didn't think so.

7. Gore instead of Bush
We would also have 500,000,000,000 dollars for the things that the rethugs want to get rid of, like medicare, social security schools,clean air etc.
