Eye on Winer

It doesn’t matter what kind, Republican or Democrat… partisanship is an ugly creature, but Dave has no problem with it… as long as you’re the right kind of partisan. How about this:

Exhibit 1: “If Bush were honorable, if he weren’t a force that put a lid on discourse by labeling people…”

Exhibit 2: “Republicans will say we’re weak for liking this. I feel sorry for them because they have so much pain.”

Exhibit 3: “Republicans have made ‘liberal’ a bad word, but they’re too dishonest to be open about it. Me, I’m openly trying to make Republican a bad word.”

I don’t get the GOP newsletter… I wonder when he started speaking for them.

Although this is sort of amusing… “Anyone with a heart and a mind who admits to being one had better explain the President and the Congress.” (From Ex. 3)

I don’t really understand that. It sounds like he wants to get emails from people who are as far to the right as he is to the left so that he can feel righteous and justified in his bliefs. I doubt very much that he would be willing to engage in a debate with any sort of intellectually honest conservative. If he did, I think he’d probably just embarrass himself.

For my part, I voted for Bush in the last election, and given the choice between Bush and Kerry again… I’d vote for Bush again. If the Democrats would step up and nominate someone with mainstream appeal instead of nominating one of the most liberal legislators in the country they would have a good shot of winning the next election, but the scoff at people like Joe Lieberman who would draw enough Republican and conservative voters to win by a landslide.

Here’s a messag to Dave: the responsibility does not lie solely with “Republican voters”, if the Democrats continue to try to ram far-leftist politics down our throats they’re going to deserve what they end up with. Why isn’t he blaming his party for not putting up an electable candidate.

After all, if you can’t beat Bush, there’s something wrong… isn’t there? (comments whining about Bush stealing elections will be unceremoniously deleted)
