I'm sure she hangs on every word posted here though.

2. DU sometimes stands for "Down-Up." In a strange twist, it's Weiner
who acted stupidly and recklessly who is up with many here, and Pelosi, who is trying to protect the party and not allow endless distractions, who is down... Go, figure.

6. Did you really think that the Weiner story was going away?
With FOX staging "events", and new tidbits released every day? How utterly in denial you must be to believe it... It is actually FOX and other right wingers in whose interests it is for Weiner not to resign. They will milk that cow until all other cows come home...

8. Oh, what baloney. If Faux doesn't have a story, they invent one.
They don't need to have an actual cow.

And do you also have a degree from the same university that Nancy got her psychology degree in?

36. Wisconsin showed the proper way to respond to Fox's lies

Fox news will continue "staging events" no matter what and will likely just become emboldened to press farther at the slightest indication of their having impact (that's what bullies do). The better response, as shown above, is to turn the tables on them rather than to capitulate.

5. She's just plain wrong today
but she was an effective Speaker of the House.

We're not Republicans, you know. We're free to criticize our elected leaders if they stick their feet in their mouths.

And she certainly did.

23. .
I am shaking my head and chuckling at that response because honestly, I have no idea whether your assessment is either horribly off or spot-on.

Hence the confused chuckling. And that doesn't happen much so....

29. cleary, it's "horribly off" (with a couple of truths thrown in), but i'm equally confused about the
intention behind that post. :shrug:

failed attempt at joke, perhaps?... who knows.

28. what nonsense. this doesn't even make sense.
just exercising in writing gibberish, i suppose?...

if not, kindly explain who was "The last Democrat actually left in 2005, and no one noticed."


And clearly, most people at DU are still registered Democrats. What a bizarre post, and what was the intention of it?

33. They may be registered...
...but I'll be damned if I know why.

No one has any use for the party, its leaders, most of its membership -- with an exception made for such of its membership that aren't reliable members -- and consistently threatens either to vote against it, or not vote for it, at the drop of any available hat.

35. She is the least shitty of our top leaders
It is not encouraging for the same person that decreed that "Impeachment is off the table" for one of history's greatest criminals that openly shit on our Constitution to be calling for one of the few decent politicians to step down over some pictures that concern none or few in anything like a direct way depending on how the principles felt emotionally about it. Or as some call out for lying about something that I feel there is no significant (or any) public interest in.

If I ask you about something that is none of my business, it is my feeling that I earned a false response and certainly place no obligation for honesty on.

As for "stupidity", I've seen votes and policies supported by som@e of the same folks that are flatout suicidal for the prospects of broad prosperity, equality, and broad prosperity that make me sick to my heart with the scope and depth of their apparent stupidity.

That one rings as hollow as talking about lies from a group of people only exceeded by the mass media for outright and willful dishonesty. One might be able to dig up a score or two of seemingly more honest politicians but pretending they are the norm even within our party, much less the whole is laughable, at best.
