Please explain exactly what makes the DLC democratic. Seriously. I need information. Arguments aren't being made for either side, only demonizations.

1. Here's their website where they speak in generalities
for themselves: http://www.ndol.org/index.cfm

Or you can try the extremely factual but far less flattering offering at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democratic_Leadership_Council

Fuck is a rather harsh term., tho.

Can't figure out a single damn thing about them.

Thanks though.

"Since its inception, the DLC has championed policies from spurring private sector economic growth, fiscal discipline and community policing to work based welfare reform, expanded international trade, and national service."

Sounds like moderate Republicans to me.

3. You're gonna be waiting a while...
While you are waiting... this is an argument against, not a demonization. It's a good read.

NO MORE MOORE the DLC Joins the Witch Hunt
