Repubicons are coming to our way of thinking...
since they can't deny it any longer I notice Jim Baker and others are sayin what the dems have been saying all along. Baker said that " you must negotiate with your enemies " and you can't fight a war if the country isn't behind you. He was talking to Hannity and Hannity almost shit in his pants because no matter what he tried he couldn't get baker to go along with his bullshit. Now that Warner and some of the other republicons have come back from Iraq they seem to be shaken and scared as hell at the mess that they have created. Look at senator Warner on c-span.

3. Sadly, though, in today's media, there is no "Dem" way of thinking
when Republicans steal our ideas, they don't even bother calling it compromise. They just take it, and use it as their own.


Remember a few months back, after years and years of calling us appeasers and saying shit like "you can't negotiate", Condi decided to negotiate with Iran?

And what did the media do?

The applauded her for it!

4. That is why they have been saying for the past few years...
whats the dems plan and everytime the dems lay something out they steal it. How can you make a plan when the situation changes on the ground day by day and their stupid ass president wants to stay to course to make himself look good.

6. and moreover, they have been the majority party since 2003
why is it always on us to come up with ideas that they just shoot down anyway?

They can pass anything they want right now, and they have done nothing.

No one ever says they have no ideas, though

7. Could it be * will ultimately unite America?
As a necessity against his embarrassment of an administration? (Well not everyone, I know there's that head-full-of-rocks-solid tiny core of supporters, but normal people I mean.)

12. That's what I'm saying
He's so divisive that eventually 80+% of the US populus will be united--against him.

13. I don't see how he wants to be president knowing that..
the country hates him. He blames us and I believe if he loses the house and senate he will set it up for the dems to make it look like they are the ones to start a draft.Which from the looks of things is inevitable. The same people he is calling terrorists because " If you aren't with him you are with the terrorists" are the same people he wants to fight his wars.

8. I'm so happy that hannity wants to fight the enemy
Chickenhawks really boil my blood, especially lying sacks of shit chickenhawks, who have no concern for the safety or welfare or lives of our kids in Iraq.

Anyone remotely connected to PNAC should hang by their neck until they are dead.

11. Maybe it would be worth our taxpayer money to arrange a few
flights full of hard core killing supporters of hard killing PNAC and barons.

Hosts and anchors like Hannity and Chris Wallace could be selected to reprresent their own lemmings. Robertson Falwell and Dobson could select their reps, etc. for each group of followers and war cheerleaders. Send them over and let them experience what war hating people are capable of imagining without having to go. All you have to do is imagine the coffins, imagine the absence of legs, imagine the disformites of the children of the soldiers and imagned their ruined careers and dreams for their family life.

These people don't have much of a soul, but if they did they could TRY TO imagine what it must be like for Iraqis, Afghanis, and the Lebonese.

14. Evidently, Senator Warner doesn't have to imagine..
since he went over to Iraq on his last trip. Something has scared the shit out of him, maybe reality?

15. Holding my breath, wanting to believe this
Could it be? I'm exhausted, though, from believing so many rays of light than eventually defaulted back to Bushian darkness...
