goddammit, the American people WILL stand up for the Democrats IF . . .

the Democrats fucking stand up for the America people! . . .

again . . . the American people WILL stand up for the Democrats IF the Democrats stand up for the American people! . . .

a strong and unified front in absolute and total opposition to the War Criminal Protection Act of 2006 would resonate positively with the vast majority -- IF you explain WHAT the bill contains, and WHY it cannot stand . . . hell, most are desperately hoping and praying for someone to step forward and stand up to the criminals who are destroying their country! . . .

the Democrats are missing a HUGE opportunity here to establish themselves as the de-facto leaders of this nation -- the ones protecting its foundation and preserving its values . . . but they have to stop living in the artificial, fear-mongered world created by BushCo and the media and return to the real world -- to the reality that BushCo THINKS they can manipulate . . . the reality where torture really IS abhorrent and unthinkable . . .

if we don't stand up to them now, we may never have another chance . . .

1. Stand up?!?

Not a prayers chance in hell my friend. When only 34 of the old boys club votes it down, it means the dems stand right with the pukes and continue this travesty that once was a nation.

2. Your wrong about this.....

'a strong and unified front in absolute and total opposition to the War Criminal Protection Act of 2006 would resonate positively with the vast majority'. The vast major ty of Democrats yes. But not the vast majority of americans. I'm willing to bet that nearly all republicans and a large percentage of independents are favor of this bill.

"if we don't stand up to them now, we may never have another chance . . ." stand up to who? The Democrats?

Wow, if that's what you mean, that would be monumentally stupid. If you mean the republicans of course we allagree.

4. what I mean is the Democrats, as a party, standing up to . . .

the Republicans . . . and yes, I know it's not going to happen . . . but it should . . .
