If there is no filibuster, I will officially LEAVE...

[Jo March]

In light of all of the gauntlets that have been thrown around lately, I just thought that I'd try to get an official "leave" count. Personally, I'm thinking about the bag of poo for Joe.

[President Jesus]

1. yes, because splitting apart will SURELY stop future Scalitos...

...from being nominated.

Awesome idea! MUCH better than trying to actually win a presidential race.

[Jo March]

4. So...you're voting for the bag of poo then?

:evilgrin:

[Dr.Phool]

7. I voted for the poo

But, Bill Nelson gets it.

[Jo March]

8. Ah, that is an excellent choice!

I left out Bill and Diane. Darn it.

:evilgrin:

[MrModerate]

2. To anyone threatening to leave, I have two words:

JOHN MCCAIN

[Jo March]

6. Eww

:scared:

[barb162]

24. his hugging Bush makes me puke

[Jo March]

26. Yep - that and *'s kissing Lieberman's cheek

GROSS!!!

:puke:

[barb162]

29. Do you literally mean to write that Bush kissed Lieberman

I missed that

[Jo March]

33. Yes - he did. At last year's SOTU, I believe

He was walking in and Lieberman was standing to the side. He walked over and gave him a kiss, mafia godfather style. It sealed my dislike and distrust of Lieberman right then and there.

Joe is a "made man."

[donheld]

3. Leaving will solve what?

DU, Democratic party. Where will we go?

[Jo March]

5. I've read that some folks are going to go to the Green party

I'm not really sure. :eyes:

They seem pretty determined...

[bigtree]

9. it's not easy being green . . .

[Jo March]

10. It is much harder than red or blue

or any other color.

[0007]

11. I ain't going no where. I fight until the end or they throw me

prison.

[Jo March]

13. I'll be looking for you in the camps

I'll be the one with curly hair. ;)

[0007]

16. I'll be the one with white hair, and a badly bent frame dragging

one leg.

[Jo March]

17. Hmm, I thought they went with a younger 007

Oh, that was 007 not 0007. ;)

[Strawman]

12. why leave when you can take over?

Like the Xtian right did with the Republicans.

Beats wasting 20 years trying just to get on the ballot.

Wanna leave? Wank away. Hope it feels good because that's about what it amounts to.

[Coexist]

14. actually, you are forgetting the only one that was really mentioned

JUST the democratic party.

[Jo March]

15. I shore did!! ;)

I added it as a choice. Thanks!

[Jo March]

18. Looks like many of us are staying

That's good to see although I'd like to have someone deliver poo to good old Joe. ;)

[Nutmegger]

19. Because this system is a two-party system...

means that any other party I support will virtually have no chance of becoming elected and addressing my three main issues: universal health care, campaign finance reform and education reform. I'd rather cull the Democracy Party than sit it out and watch the repukes storm in. True, I am upset about the Alito filibuster but where else am I going to go???

[Jo March]

20. I totally agree.

We are not in a good place, are we? That's why we have to stay and fight, IMHO.

If not, there's always flaming poo!

[Nutmegger]

22. I'm always up for flaming poo! n-t

:P

[Jo March]

25. Yes, who can resist the flaming poo?

Not me!

:evilgrin:

[Joey Liberal]

21. I'll never give up

It's our freedom that is at stake here. The republicans are trying to ruin this country. Give up? Hell no. Never. I'll go to my grave cursing republicans.

[Jo March]

23. Yep. All of the defeatism is a bit of a downer.

I'm not going anywhere. They work for us - ALL of them. We need to remind them of that fact every single day.

[debbierlus]

27. I will not donate to the democratic party

I will support progressive canidate's who run in the democratic party, but I will never just write a check to the dems.

I will stay in the democratic party but I will not have any alligiance to any democrat. I will stay so I can work to change the party from within.

I will work to change the party.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

28. As a lifelong Democrat I will vote very selectively.

I have no qualms about voting against pro-war, "pro-life", pandering Dems who vote for Republican bills and support Republican causes.

[DemGirl7]

30. There is no way in hell that I'm leaving the party

They are the ones that are leaving the party by going along with the Republicans. I will never leave, never ever ever!!! They will have to personally kick me out, before I leave.

[Jo March]

31. I'm right there with you, DemGirl7!

We should ask them to leave. Why should we leave OUR party when they are the ones who have betrayed the very ideals that we stand for and support?

Leave? I don't think so!

[txindy]

32. They'll have to force me to leave

Because I'm not the quittin' kind.

NGU.

[Jo March]

34. Darn skippy.

I say we throw them out. It's our party. At this point, we should consider the DINOs as party crashers!

Boot 'em out!
