Dems launch Republican 'Survivor' to counter 'Kerry-opoly'
As seen on the liberal Drudge, http://www.rawstory.com

DTrip TV hosts interactive games, Republican 'Survivor'
http://dtriptv.com/

In this election, the issues have never been more serious. There are plenty of voices and channels large and small filling that space. DTripTV is a destination for Democrats who need a quick break from the serious issues facing the country, who want to laugh a bit at the folks on the other side, and who want to do it by playing around with cartoons and games.

In a broader sense, DTripTV and particularly our featured series Republican Survivor are about taking the time-honored tradition of political cartoons to the next level by integrating them into the Internet. Since Benjamin Franklin drew the first American political cartoon in 1754, 'toons have served up satire that makes you laugh and think.

We all know what's at stake. We just think it's about time for a fun outlet where we can connect on some of our anxieties and frustrations about Republicans taking America in the wrong direction and give the right a ribbing.

It's not politics, it's DTripTV.

--Site paid for by Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee

::If this has been up a while, feel free to lock -- hadn't seen or heard of it myself, but can't find info on site about its launch date::

1. What's laughable is that
Neocons and Bush supporters still see Kerry as the "rich elitist"

Uh excuse me but Kerry may be a wealthy person now, but he wasn't born with it like someone else we know.

Plus on top of that, I don't exactly see Bush living in the same kind of neighborhood as most Americans or wearing basic JC Penney's suits.......talk about hypocritical how anyone can believe Bush is more of a "people's person" than Kerry...

6. Actually Kerry was born quite wealthy. You don't get to go sailing with
JFK, if your family doesn't have any bread.

However during the 60's Kerry went down south to march for civil rights and he protested the war we he came back. Bush was too busy snorting coke and drunk driving at the time.

The Bush family is wealthier, though.

9. Kerry was an army brat he got to travel the world
because his father was the one moving around. To me "wealthy" is someone with millions not a middle to middle upper class type.

4. I have been playing from the beginning!
It is a real hoot! Asscrack and Delay were the first two to go! This weeks choice is Coulter, Dickhead and Katherine Harris. Such a tough decision!

8. Me too! I struggled between him and Coulter, but the choice was clear in
the end, besides, Dumbass keeps getting Scalia's immunity dust!

I loved the Hannity mud! That was great!:)
