I care. It's hard to take someone seriously if he can't demonstrate a grasp of middle school level grammar.

A combined IQ that still can't reach 40, an inability to see everything that is right in front of their eyes, and their lemming acceptance of everything msnbc tells them.

You did not put "ineffectiveness". That is what is hurting them the most. They were voted in on the basis of the changes that were promised and thus far I have basically not seen many chnages. It is looking more and more to many like a 3rd Bush term with big bailouts for the wealthy, 100,000 troops still in Iraq, health care being bungled, immigration reform not even on the radar and gays still being banned from the military.
So where is the "change we can believe in"? President Obama's numbers are NOT falling because Republicans turned on him. They are falling because Democrats are seeing him not LEAD and not FIGHT for anything. I mean, we are in the middle of a hell fight on his signature issue and he takes off to Marthas Vineyard for a week to hang around the same evil ruling class of people he is supposed to be fighting with for us.

I beg to differ. Lately the Democrat party has been imploding.

The Dems are only done if they FAIL to deliver on their PROMISES. The economy is coming back and will be in fair shape by 2010 so that will not do them in but if we still have no health care bill and we still have 100,000 troops in Iraq, they are done because we will stay home.
If the DO keep their promises the base will stick with them and they will win- or at the very least not lose nearly as much as they might have otherwise. So they have to choose between either losing alot or losing a little or even none.

TRUE Liberals are a good thing. The current crop of neo-progs are smothering the Democrat party in shame.

Oh wait, that was an upright, moral, 'straight' Republican senator.

Never mind.

That Republican Senator is a disgrace to the party. I can admit that. However, when a Democrat screws up, the neoprogs flock to their rescue regardless of the crime or sin.

You see, there's the difference. I can admit that the Republicans in their current state are a bunch of shams. But, when the Democrats screw up the neoprogs will do anything to defend their party.

MovingForward, that is an interesting statement, and I mean that with sincerity, not sarcasm. Would you elaborate?

Again, I am truly interested in your answer because it sounds like you have some intellectual abilities unlike many on these forums at times (btw, I mean BOTH parties friend).
