#1 Yes! That's just what the Democratic Party needs: a purge!

Cause we all know how well that worked with Lieberman.

Maybe because they've never understood what real 'democracy' is about, that they're having such a hard time with this all. Watch their totalitarian streak start to come out. There is but one true god and it is theirs, all others are false and must be destroyed. No wonder they have so much in common with the Islamists. And like the Islamists they've already declared everyone else to be the 'enemy'. There's no concept of others having a legitimate difference of opinion. Watch what the unquenched thirst for POWER does to people.

#2 ~~Netroots Movement~~ Nutroots Movement. There that's fixed.

The far left is foaming at the mouth. They have a tantrum when they don't have their way. Spoiled adolescents. If they have a meltdown and engage in fratricide; what's the down side? How do you know the left is humorless and angry? They are humorless and angry all the time.

#3 Hmmmmmm. A feeding frenzy amongst the cannibals.
Maybe they aren't as influential as they think?

#4 this is delicious. We need to provoke these nuts to tear the Dem party in two. Continue to make the Donk politicians vote on the nut's positions in front of the nation: they are faced with Cut and Run/Bashing the military (I think it was DepotGuy who nailed that yesterday) or getting their votes thrown in their faces in the general elections. What works in the Donk primaries won't fly with the mainstream of America, and the blogs won't let them lie about their votes like the MSM would've in the past.

#5 I don't think there's any cause for gloating over this. The extreme Left has done a damn good job of taking over the Democratic Party lock, stock and barrel, and I see no signs-- none whatsoever-- of their stranglehold being loosened anytime soon.

As for the American voting public's imminent rejection of these liberal lunatics... you've gotta be kidding me. The Democrats lost in the 2002 midterm elections and decided it was because they weren't extreme enough in their opposition to Bush; they got a lot more extreme in 2004, and damn near won the Presidency; and then they went DEEP into the fever swamps of anti-American, anti-GWoT, Republican-hating lunacy in 2006, and promptly won both houses of Congress.

The more extreme they've become, the more elections they've won. Is there some sort of magic that's supposed to change things around-- other than pure wishful thinking? If so, I want to know WTF it is; because the way it looks to me right now, we're in for a massive Republican defeat next year.

#8 DD - IMNSHO, teh great middle of America will be turned off by teh extremists. Up til now, the Donks have been able to hide their ugly sides. I'd posit that the Lieberman win could be the model for coming elections: the nutroots and their bought-and-paid-for pols so turn off the voters that they lose, big. Let's see who turns out right? Making the pols condemn (or not) the nuts is a win-win

#10 "Making the pols condemn (or not) the nuts is a win-win."

That much, I agree with. I hope you're right, Frank, I really REALLY do. But I'm not counting on it.

#11 In preparation, I registered the domain names, WeAreYourBase.com, SpeakWithOneVoice.org [and] .net and I've researched the cost of purchasing NotOneRedCent.com."

How much research does this take? Does somebody already own NotOneRedCent.com? If so, ask them what they want for it.

#12 "In fact, I'm going to take the money I would have donated to Democratic campaigns and donating it to MoveOn"

Me too! Do they feel their wallets weighing them down now?

#13 We really need to keep this up. Keep the dhimocrats and the nutroots in the news. This, along with Billery's awful negative view numbers will sink any chance of the dhims getting the presidency. Congress as well has a good chance of falling away from their control as well.

#14 The Republicans got in deep trouble last election because they had 6 years to get it right and fell on on their fat a$$es. The nutcase Left is filling the vacuum. The solid, middle of the road, patriotic American has nowhere to go.

I would like to see independents get in on government and clean it up, but honest, hardworking, patriotic Americans do not want to enter the septic tank of Washington politics (with no disrespect intended toward the hard-working septic tanks of this country).

#16 Was in Lyndon Johnson who said "The only difference between liberals and cannibals is that cannibals only eat their enemies."?

#17 The more extreme they've become, the more elections they've won.

Which neatly explains how a barking mad loon like Hillary is their frontrunner.

Is there some sort of magic that's supposed to change things around-- other than pure wishful thinking? If so, I want to know WTF it is; because the way it looks to me right now, we're in for a massive Republican defeat next year.

The republicans need to get on topic and on message and do it damn soon. Stupendous betrayals of the American peoplelike the immigration billhave rightfully disenchanted a huge number of their stalwart voters. They need to focus on issues of substance, like securing the nation's borders. That's one issue the democrats won't even touch. More importantly, beating the war drum is not the same as clearly delineating the threat of Islam. When Christian America finally is made to understand the real goals of our Muslim colonists they might snap out of their delusions regarding peaceful coexistence.

Likewise with the fence-sitters and centrists. The mainstream media consistently has downplayed the implications of Islam colonizing the West. The republicans have a golden opportunity to create an exclusive rallying point the democrats simply cannot touch. Conservative politicians can ignore this fact but only at their peril.

#18 Such consternation. I find it quite humorous.

#20 Republican voters, be aware, there is an organization Counsel on Foreign Relations that supports members of both parties. These are the NAFTA people who push for the North American Union and no fence. Bush, Clinton, Kerry, Gore, Dole, Thompson, Romney, Richardson, Obama, Edwards, and McCain are a few of its members.
We must elect a non-CFR republican and push for inclusion into the everyday workings of our gubmint via petition, inititive and referendum.
As it stands today, the MSM create issues which divide republicans like abortion and gay whatever, then the CFR ushers in a new member president for four more years of deceit. If abortion is actually an issue then why have none of the last 5 or 6 presidents done nothing for or against abortion ?
Get a grip, voters. Vote for a non-CFR republican. My word on the democrats is all corruption all the time. They can never do us any good and must be destroyed like the MSM.
Keep the discussion going...take America back.

#21 I'll be so happy when ALL these lunatics come to Denver foaming at the mouth.

It will make campaigning in Colorado that much easier, with their mask ripped off and no way to hid it.
