I'll give you a genuine American Nickel
Edited on Sat Feb-17-07 10:08 PM by MoseyWalker
for everything you can say to put down the democrats in the race; or even those not in the race.

Here's you're chance to trash the democratic candidates and democratic leaders. Right here; right now.

Think about it. A genuine American Nickel to disparage your party's candidates!

I am so sick of the twisted minded bullshit that I can't stand it anymore.

I am tired of people bashing the Democrats who are running for president on here. If you do not like Hillary then don't vote for her. If she wins the primary and you don't like it vote for Nader! That Will show them!

5. They mostly miss the mark
as far as we want them to be more liberal, but they are more liberal than the right so they are better.

Where's my nickel. And I ain't talking them new purty ones, I want one from 1965 when I was born :)

7. I do get what you are saying though
It can be harsh to see us slamming our own candidates who want to serve us.

I think the core problem though is that people are disenchanted with people in politics as a whole. I have been around 41 years, seen dems in power and reps too.

And here we are in 2007:
Poverty still an issue, schools still suck, crime rates still bad, wars, corruption, health care, forest service, pollution, etc and so on seem to be as big if not bigger problems now than before.

We keep electing people, and we keep getting screwed. Clinton backpedaled on gays in the military, how the hell hard is it to just say - gays can be in the military, end of discussion? Bush can send em all to war to die and get maimed etc, why couldn't we have done that one tiny thing?

After awhile, people learn not to trust a damned one of em - so we put em through hell and a microscope and get damned picky.

I want to vote for ideals, not just a name with a D after it - I don't want used so that someone can get into power and play all nice and fun, I want someone who is the real deal.
