I'm Tired of Radical Leftists Who...
.. can't admit they don't rule the world.

Don't get me wrong.... I kinda consider myself a radical leftist. Not always, but sometimes that position is the correct position. We rads have some good ideas and we are constantly thinking of what's best for the country and the world.

But when some of us say that they will vote for the puke because the dem running against him is not radical enough..., well, it burns my chops.

Lookie here, we rads are the outsiders. We don't rule things. Oh, we can change things but to do so means crawling in bed with the less radical amongst us who are in position to make our changes come true.

And Lawd knows the dems make far better bed partners than just about any damn republican.

1. Fuckin Absolutely. Anyone That Thickheaded And Narrow Minded
won't get the slightest of respect from me. That's why I think greens who vote for greens can go fuck themselves.

12. Because Some Of Them Have Half A Brain Enough To Realize That The Best Way
right now to improve things is to vote for the Democrats. The ones that are so ignorant or stubborn in their narrow minded ideals to continue to vote for the green candidate are working against their own interests and can go fuck themselves.

3. You know other radicals who would actually vote for a republican
just because they don't like the dem? I know some people like to vote 3rd party when they hate both candidates but supporting a pug instead seems weird.

18. There ain't many
but it has been my displeasure to run across a few.

I can dig a moderate thinking the vote through, but a rad lefty claiming the puke gets his vote because the dem ain't rad enough? Weird is right.

4. who's the rad...who's the mod..
what are you, and what am I?.... according to the corporate news we on the internets are the lunatic fringe. I, myself don't espouse my radical ideas to just anyone. Those are saved for more intimate conversations.

6. I agree. I'd rather split hairs with any Dem than deal with a Republican.
We are in a two party country right now. Deal, LOL.

7. you aren't a radical leftist, I'm not, no one here is
You just think you are because this country has gone so far right, and even a "moderate" is pretty right wing.

11. Not many radical leftists are voting for pukes out of spite...
That is a ridiculous notion.

14. How strange. I don't know of any radical Dem who would
vote for a registered Repuke, no matter what. This is why I will hold my nose and vote for Dianne Feinstein the next election. (She may not be my kind of Democrat but she's not a Republican, yet.) I am a really radical leftist too.

16. Strange.....indeed
Was taliking to a lady yesterday who thinks bushco should be impeached, but was trying to convince me that voting for the puke congressman was cool.

Cool because the dem running was not that different. And my impression is that the lady was a rad lefty. But that's not the only instance....

Ahhhh, politics. It makes for strange bedfellows, eh?

15. If anyone splits the vote and dem lose well they hurt us all
Dam right I don't like all the Dems but we have to vote the replugs out of office. Greens can go back to vote in 08 lets get both the House and Senate so we can see justice for Bush and boy. And your dam right I am left but now is the time to pull as one
