Our nation needs a two party system. It is only thru free expression and exchange of ideas that we, as a nation can grow and prosper.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7734846.post-1155130766449951122006-08-09T08:39:00.000-05:002006-08-09T08:39:00.000-05:00Re: "Jay said" (1st Comment)Nothing ever stays the...Re: "Jay said" (1st Comment)<BR/><BR/>Nothing ever stays the same. Life is a trail of change; constant and unending. To say that the Party of Roosevelt (the FDR "New Deal" Party) is the Democratic party we see today is to say Night is Day, Down is Up, Bad is Good, etc. "Jay" may think he's an old fashioned "Democrat", one of the last who truly loves the US of A, but he's not. (Or he's real "slow".) Far too many Democrats, real American Democrats, have left that Party in the past 60 years that it just isn't what it used to be. It's totally changed. It's philosophy is totally different. The "character" of it's membership is totally different. It is, today, with the loss of Lieberman to Lamont, a dead party. All the remaining "Americans" are being driven out. The takeover by the Ultra-Left wing, the New Age "american" communists and anarchists, the U.N.-Huggers and Marx-Lovers is nearly complete. We are now a one party country. How did it happen? How does anything happen? People grow up, graduate, change jobs, move, get married, have kids, read newspapers and books, listen to radio and watch TV, surf the web, grow older, etc., etc.. It's all happened before, many times. It's not so unusual. We'll get over it. We'll chase the rats and cockroaches that people can find in any society, especially a "free" one like ours, back into the basement, up into the attic, and into woodwork. An new "National" Party will be formed to balance the scales, eventually. In the meantime, life goes on; kids grow up; people die. The beat goes on! As with December 7, 1941, this date should also be remembered in history. The Democratic Party is dead.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7734846.post-1155121899751010672006-08-09T06:11:00.000-05:002006-08-09T06:11:00.000-05:00On behalf of liberals and Democrats...I apologize ...On behalf of liberals and Democrats...I apologize for infliciting the ongoing wars, broken economy, high gas prices, global warming, massive government corruption, and all the other misfortunes of a completely Republican controlled government.<BR/><BR/>Hope that makes you feel better.
