The Following Are Not DINO's, They Are Not Even Democrats in Name.
Edited on Mon Jan-12-04 04:31 PM by David Zephyr
Alan Colmes, Mort Kondracke and Susan Estrich all falsely present themselves as "Democrats" and are cashing in on their betraying of the Democratic Party. Haven't you had enough of the charade?

Susan Estrich, has had nothing but the most demeaning comments to offer about every Democrat currently running for President. She has gone so far as to ridicule the way Dennis Kucinich "looks".

Ms. Estrich, quickly gave cover to her good friend Arnold Schwarznegger during the California Gubernatorial race last year. Estrich was relentless in criticism of Governor Gray Davis to receive her paycheck from Fox News.

Ms. Estrich has made a lot of money from Fox Network relying on her "credentials" as a Democrat from having managed the worst national political campaign in American history in 1988.

Mort Kondracke is now finally, at long last, said to be admitting that's he's really not a Democrat and that he's going to become an "Independent" after selling himself as a Democrat for years. Why? Because everyone in America is already on to him and the fact that he chose Roger Ailes' money and politics over the ones he had long falsely claimed to have espoused.

Alan Colmes is the most interesting of all of these types of "Democrats" perhaps to ever come along. Colmes, a 100% media invention fabricated by Roger Ailes to give the illusion of weak "liberal" voice, is only believed to be a Democrat by Republicans and no one else int the nation.

Zel Miller, a long-time Republican who has finally is outing himself by endorsing George W. Bush against any of the nine Democrats running for President is another case in point. Miller hasn't been a Democrat for a decade. He was worthy of every single attack and criticism by leftists that he received. And those who always ran to "defend" him at every opportunity should continue to remain politely silent about his final betrayal to our Party.

Of course, then there are those "Democrats" who are elected officials and who "surprise" many with suddenly switching Parties to become Republicans. The truth is that I have never known one Democrat who "switched" who I never thought as my ally anyway. When Democrats consistently vote with Republicans and against their own Party, why even call the Democrats in Name Only?

We must all refrain to ever referring to any of these frauds as Democrats. They are not Democrats, but have all made a lot of money and nice careers pretending to be just that and then attacking the Party and its candidates whenever required to do so.

So, if you feel compelled to call them "Democrats" in the future, may I suggest that you always refer to these as Fox Democrats.

2. Good Grief, Ficus! I Hadn't Even Considered That!
Jeez. Can you imagine Zel Judas Miller, Fox Democrat, being interviewed over and over during the Democratic National Convention in Boston. I'm sure that Tony Snow and Brit Hume will be seeking his "opinions" throughout the convention.

I hadn't even considered that.

12. scary thought, huh?
Good thing I heard that Zell wouldn't show up, because he figured he wouldn't be welcome. He sure has that right!

And, I bet your right about Faux exploiting this confused old man for his "insights" into the Democratic Convention.

When I phoned the veteran liberal activist and 2000 Gore campaign manager to talk about Dean, she just raved about him. I pushed her: "Wow, Donna, you sound like you love the guy -- are you sure you're not backing him? Are you going to work for him?" I even asked if she wanted to talk off the record.

She stopped me cold. "You called me to talk about Howard Dean. If you'd called to talk about Joe Lieberman, I'd have raved about him, too. I'm finding something to love about all these candidates. One of them is going to defeat George Bush."

8. Nannygoat! You Made My Day! Thanks for the Links!
Thanks, Nannygoat! Beautiful!

"Classical liberals" Ha!

Yeah, we gotta throw Joe Klein in there now with all of the other "Fox Democrats" who are either on Fox's payroll or are working hard to be.

"Fox Democrats", far better than "DINO", no?

6. I guess we should have had Sue pegged awhile back...
Anyone who would take a candidate with a 17-point poll lead and a super acceptance speech at the Dem. Convention and turn his campaign into a 12-point loss suuuure was never much of a Democrat to begin with!:eyes:

B-)

7. Actually, Mondale was the worst national campaign history
He lost 49 states. The only one that he won was his home state (and he only won that by about 4000 votes.

13. Anyone working for Faux News
Anyone working for the Faux News service is a Republican shill. It's a job requirement for working at Faux.

Seriously, these guys on the right believe that anyone who doesn't tow the line 100% is a liberal. This is their big problem. They don't realize that adults can have different perspectives on issues. You are either with them, or your a liberal.

This is why the Republican party is so disciplined. Grass Roots my ass, the Republicans are 100% top down. You tow the line or they will make you pay.

There is going to be a HUGE fight on this Mexican work permit issue. The honest Republicans, bless Pat Buchanan, are outraged.

14. What If All National Democrats Boycotted Fox?
Wouldn't that shame them with the American people once and for all.

It would be so easy to do.
