Not to about 150 million seriously disgruntled Americans it's not! The price your party will pay for seriously underhanded and criminal behavior will become obvious even to you in the coming months.

And what price will the Dems pay for their similar behaviors?

Well, they ought to have turned out and voted. Best I can see is less than 60 million of them showed up. (of course you are including babies and school children in your total, which is ludicrous at best)

" In the 37 elections since 1860 - the first won by a Republican - Democrats have won only 14. Only twice in 15 post-World War II elections has the Democratic nominee achieved 50 percent of the vote."

George F. Will 11-4-04

Not a good 150 years for the demos. I think most of them would prefer it if the liberal end of the party went its own way, and let the rest of them, the majority of them, go back to there basic roots and beliefs. Liberals have wiped out any hope for the democratic ticket.

There are three or four democrats who could have beaten Bush. Maybe instead of wringing their hands in despair, democrats ought to consider doing something about the Primary process, which basically allowed Iowa and NH to choose their candidate. Perhaps that choice ought to be made at the convention, rather than on the farm in the midwest?

Both sides whine about the electoral college, voter registration process failures, and disenfranchised voters, but most all democrats were totally disenfranchised when two or three small states basically told all the others that Kerry was the one who would run. How stupid is that?

Art, You are woefully misinformed....

We do. Are you not aware of the MANY charities which feed the poor? And we have reverse taxation for the poor... they get money FROM the government, and food stamps (actually most are now debit cards to use in the grocery stores).

You've been watching too much socialist TV.

Eh? As I've pointed out before, we have the lowest taxation of just about everyone except the Arab Emirates.

We are... and your ass may be next ;-)

We're not infighting... watch how we merge when attacked.

If you think that, it suddenly all becomes clear why you are the idiot I held you for. If you read things wrong, you better stop reading all together. Can't think of better therapy here.

Having said that, and 'looking' at SED, I see a mix of contributions in all kinds of flavors. Wise stuff, stupid remarks, ranting, reasonable folks, nutcases and what have you. We all stick labels on each other.

Time will tell who has put the right labels on. One excuse the Americans will never be able to use is 'We didn't know'.

Jim,

This is hilarious:

Seems the Dems lost because America is populated by ignorant religious inbred finatics.

It just ocurred to me, walking down the hill to work, that the roles of the two major parties have reversed in the last 70 years. The Democrats were the champions of the oppressed farming/working class, but are now the party of Manhattan and Hollywood, of Volvo-driving upper-middle-class urban coast-dwellers, and the Republicans now speak for the working class, rural, "heartland" of America. It seems to me that the Dems don't understand this, which is why they are now calling their own claimed constituancy stupid and ignorant because they didn't do as they were told.

Has anybody read "What's Wrong With Kansas"? Sounds like it might be interesting.

It is especially funny...even in my small province of Nova Scotia (about 3% of the population, and a far smaller % of the land mass), there are a number of accents, and also numerous languages, eh. The guy who wrote that is a hoser. :-)

What an idiotic stunt that was.

"The world will endure four more years of idiocy, arrogance and unwarranted bloodshed, with no benevolent deity to watch over and save us. John Wilkes Booth, Lee Harvey Oswald, John Hinckley Jr.?where are you now that we need you?"

Would this be the first time a British newspaper has openly called for the assassination of an American president?

I've noticed that the current attitude of the Dems is "Anyone who disagrees with me is stupid and/or evil." Yeah, that arrogance will win 'em new friends. NOT.

I begin to believe the party I've been registered to for almost three decades is self-destructing in an orgy of arrogance, envy and hatred.

No, no, you're missing the point entirely. They're saying that they see Bush as a nazi tool, and anyone who votes for him is stupid or evil.

But to them, when you say, "No, he's not," _some_ of them knee-jerk and react with "you must be one of them."

But it does seem like a knee-jerk on the republican side that they seem not to notice that there are extremists in the republican party, who have earned themselves the appellation "neocons," who seem to be pushing an agenda that's frighteningly in line with the MO of every known fascist regime since they invented fascism.

And that's scary. Not only the "liberals'" perception of it as being so extreme as to call out the resistance, but the idea that the right-wing side won't even acknowledge that some of the things in, for example, the Patriot Act, are a little bit extreme.

They always go, "you have to give up a little bit of freedom to protect our security."

And it is happening.

And if you refuse to see that, then people will probably keep calling you names.

Thanks, Rich
