and clearly and with guts. I am with Geffen, I am tired of seeing Carville on TV. I am tired of seeing Donna Brazile on TV. I am tired of the Blue Dogs fighting us over standing up against Bush about the war.

And Patrick Murphy of PA should be taken behind the woodshed and spanked for sounding like the only thing we could do for the troops is pray. Pray?

I don't want them doing what they did in 00 02 and 04....trying to be more militaristic than the Republicans.

I don't want them spouting nonsense about how Iran is the hugest threat when we have not done diplomacy with them in 6 years.

Just keep them off the air until they grow a backbone. My husband picked up the remote and for the first time turned off Olbermann. He said he won't listen to that stuff anymore.

1. I agree, "Mad", they are a cowardly bunch and we need all new spokespeople.
Ones that have some fight in them. How about some of the progressive radio crowd like Randi or Stephanie Miller, Thom Hartman, etc. Lets trade in the same tired old faces and get younger people who like to (and are able to) spar artfully and forcefully with the media.

2. Totally agree
Let the Dems with some sort of "gravitas" like Kerry, Durbin, Kennedy Feingold etc. control keep the asshats like Mark Pryor of the tv.

Is that too hard cause right now were extremely close from going back into a premament minority state if we don't fix this shit soon you know what i'm saying?
