Poor things. So pathetic, so sad, and so ignorant. The LWNJs from Philly really don't like the term "Democrat Party" for some strange reason.


Demagoguery is part of their platform it seems.

Default Why do Republicans always say "Democrat party" instead of "Democratic party"?

Ever since the GOP has been taken over by the radical religious right, they've been entirely irrational and reduced to tossing out lots of dumb low-grade insults and fanning the flames of culture wars instead of addressing problems.

They say democrat party because it ends in "rat."

My countertactic is to refer to them as "pubs."

W. Bush used it probably as a result of his local lingo rather than any insult attempt then Rush Limbaugh brought it back big time as his insult.. Since many don't understand the concept of a republic the other side didn't want to give away the ideal of democracy by using the term Democratic Party. Even Ralph Nadar when he ran third party used Democrat Party instead of Democratic Party.

"Democrat" Party Wiki
