Democrat Party? - FUCK YOU! FUCK YOU! FUCK YOU!!

[sfstaxprep]

That is all.

(Since apparently it wasn't clear)

[BainsBane]

11. They use a noun where an adjective should be

It's illiterate.

[still_one]

2. you better clarify what you are saying by this in the OP, because it can be taken in different ways

[budkin]

4. Pretty sure everyone knows what the OP means

They've heard it over and over for years.

[ucrdem]

16. Rep Doug LaMalfa, Chico CA

never heard of him til today

[still_one]

18. Then he should put that in the content of the OP, because a lot of us are not watching the

impeachment hearing

[ucrdem]

24. I know, this one was a standout though

It's an amazing parade of idiocy and courage. But it's hard to keep track of who's up.

[DonaldsRump]

19. There's no such thing as the "Democrat Party"

This is a puerile petty insult by the Republicans. It is shameful in the extreme that this is the extent of their ability to "govern". That pettiness and childishness, coupled with outright evil by some factions with their party, is why today is happening, not because of the DEMOCRATIC Party.

[IsItJustMe]

3. Context please!!!

[N_E_1 for Tennis]

13. It's only the "Republic" Party that says that...

Got it?

[IsItJustMe]

29. Got it!!! For a second, I thought I accidently signed onto Free Republic.

Either that or I was having one of those Twilight Zone moments.

LOL

[N_E_1 for Tennis]

30. Lol...

[Walleye]

5. It is a deliberate insult. They can't have healing until we get just a tiny bit of respect.

[flor-de-jasmim]

6. A first step towards unity is acknowledging the name of your opponents' party.

[PatSeg]

7. Yeah, its really getting old already

As soon as they say "Democrat party", I know not to take anything they say seriously.

[Different Drummer]

8. I have been yelling at the TV every time they've said it. n/t

[Initech]

9. It's like they keep saying it because they know it pisses us off.

[TDale313]

21. They do.

They do it to mock. They’re juvenile bullies who go out of their way to be as disrespectful as possible in the pettiest ways possible. But ya know... Unity!!! 🙄

[Politicub]

10. All dictator wannabes. It's pathetic how they're parroting Trump talking

points, but hardly unsurprising.

[Politicub]

34. I think it would be stressful, too, because they walk around in a

constant state of agitation because of their belief that everyone is out to get them.

[Jerry2144]

12. Our side should respond

Our side should respond to any asinine statement saying, “Democrat Party?” I don’t understand, please repeat. Do it once or twice. Then say, “there is no such organization as the ‘Democrat Party’ in this country. Your question makes no sense.” It should be standard response. I am finally fixing coworkers who have gotten it wrong when they want to talk politics.

[Demobrat]

17. I feel you

The moment they say that you know exactly what they are. Nothing else they say matters.

[Tommymac]

20. Um, a sarcasm tag would be appropriate for this OP. Just sayin'

I took it way wrong at first. Bad optics for DU otherwise IMHO

[Hortensis]

23. :) They try to destroy your sovereignty and THIS gets you excited?

That is all.

[sfstaxprep]

25. I Know It Won't Happen

But every time the repubs say it, the Democrats need to start their comments by saying....

"IT'S THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY, SAY IT CORRECTLY!!"

[Lady Freedom Returns]

26. Guess that the rethugs must be playing their "greatest hits"...

At the Impeachment hearing.

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

27. Newt Gringich is responsible for that word.

During his "Contract on America" attack, he sent out a long list of words and terms that Republicans are to use. One of those was "Democrat Party," which diminished the status of the organization -- like if you referred to Chief Justice William Rehnquist by the name "Judge Billy Rehnquist." Dubya was good at this, especially with reporters.

The list was developed by GOP pollster Frank Luntz, and includes such terms as "death tax" instead of estate tax, and "climate change" instead of global warming.

[11 Bravo]

28. With a big assist from a fat, impotent, junkie, shock jock.

Limbaugh is probably the one person most responsible for the normalization of this particular bit of idiocy.

[edbermac]

31. Say the members of the RepubliKlan Party
