The Imminent Demise of the Republican Party
A great op/ed piece by David W. Orr.
"The Republican Party has chosen to deny social, ecological, cultural, religious, and economic realities which are unavoidably complicated, complex, diverse, ironic, and paradoxical. Instead they have chosen to make their own simplistic, ideological, and chauvinistic fantasy world that has little affinity for law, science, a free and independent press, fairness, true security, ecological sustainability, and the accountability that is requisite for genuine democracy."
Mr. Orr has hit the nail on the head with this article. Read it here.>>>

We are a persnickity bunch aren't we? By the way, thanks for the heads up on our imminent demise! Man you miss Fox News one day, you miss a lot!
Well, your choices for a presidential run in '08 are way off. Hillary and Kerry are probably going to run in the primaries but there are 2 other contenders that are favored much more heavily over them. I'll wait to hear them announce before I say anything but, people on theis blog know who I am talking about.
The Democratic party needs to go more left. I support it also. That is why we had an enormous campaign push for Howard Dean. Democrats need to get awway from the center...it is polluted with right-wing garbage and the left will prevail. By the way, only 35% of registered voters are republican. That is not a good number while over 40% are Democrat. Liberal ideals were this countries founding and we can see the conservative ideals do not work.
By moving more left....our base will expand. The reason?? We don't like the centrists or conservative wing of the Party...we want the Democratic wing of the Party back and, on a grassroots level we are doing it. Howard Dean is the example.
*Fist clenched in the air* YEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!
Obama isn't going to be president Lib. Ole thick ankles has a better shot at it than he does.
Who said anything about Obama??
C'mon, I've been reading your site long enough, you think he's one of your two golden children for 2008.
