Why do Dumbs say their all inclusive but keep pointing out the differences among populations?

Simple: to encourage the people they are pandering to at the moment to resent other people, and turn that resentment into votes. The frightening thing is not so much that they are such cynical demagogues, but that demagoguery seems to work so damn well with nearly half the people in this country.

The Republican nominee will need a good response to the follow-up question in the fall, though.

A handful of random genetic chemicals is dealt to you when you are conceived as a single cell, and that’s ALL that accounts for the physical differences between us. A strand of DNA can only be seen under the most powerful electron microscope, and yet it somehow looms as an impenetrable wall between people? I don’t buy that. I reject that.

On the other hand, a vast array of ideas and influences shape the character, concerns, and actions of each and every person. The Republican Party is about ideas, not about differences in the gift you got from your Mom and Dad.

well, as a Hispanic male, i can say the Dumb party is racist since there was not enough support to keep Richardson in the race, so i guess that means the Dumbs have turned their back on us. :(

historic? Historic? What’s historic about it?

Why do Dumbs say their all inclusive but keep pointing out the differences among populations?

Oh, and it’s nice to see that affirmative action has finally come into play in the presidential race. The fact that it’s come home to roost in the Dem camp (for the moment anyway) is poetic justice.

I’m sorry. I can’t wrap myself around the “why shouldn’t I resent…” question.

Seriously, the mind just boggles. Resent? RESENT? I get the left is crazy, notionally, but when I see it in practice I’m often left speechless. So the libs are finally swinging from the petard of identity politics, resenting the hell out of having to choose which road stakes out the higher realms of absolute moral authority? Go with race? Go with gender? How dare you make me choose like this?

If only, if only she had been a brown skinned woman. That would have been the perfect storm.

The good news… we don’t make people as stupid, self-centered, egotistical and weak as these three anymore. The mold has been broken. The next generation of Americans make these three look like the fakes and cry-babies they are.

The bad news… many American voters fail to realize this fact because they are just as stupid, self-centered, egotistical and weak as these three are. Repulsive actually.

I hate to give Edwards the answer, but the proper response should have been: ” If you’re really a progressive, Martin Luther King Jr. has already given you the right answer. Don’t judge any of us for the color of our skin or our gender, but for the content of our character. If you can’t do that then you don’t deserve to call yourself “progressive”.”

Would have shut everyone up in a heartbeat. Of course, real “progressives” don’t think like that, and I can’t really say much good about any of their characters.

I want to see someone make a video montage of Edwards’s performances in these idiotic debates overlaid with the song “It’s Hard Out There For A Pimp.”

Good news for the “progressive” woman in the clip, after South Carolina, there won’t BE a white man in the Dem debates anymore.

And then the “Party of Diversity” can celebrate their *ahem* “diversity”.

Am I the only one who thinks these Democrats are idiots to be surprised that people die during a war? I deeply appreciate the sacrifices of our soldiers, marines, sailors and their families. But these Democrats truly seem surprised and expect surprise from others when people die in a war. And this is one of the guerilla’s greatest strenghts: the fact that civilians are so quickly wearied by bloodshed. I’m just a weak stomached civilian myself so I can identify with the feeling. But a civilized person does not act on every feeling, much less make it a major policy. If Barak, Hillary and John have so much difficulty with this war they would not have even made it through even a few days of the comparative blood baths of the Civil War or WW II. If it were up to these guys we would be slave owning Nazis. Most of the soldiers in those wars knew what principles they were fighting for and felt it was worth it. And I think this didication to principle continues in Iraq and Afganistan, in spite of lefty surrender monkeys.

God, I so want Edwards to be the VP nominee. Isn't he the one who railed against Walmart and then called Walmart up using his status to procure a Playstation 3? Is't he the guy talking about 2 America's while owning a large stake in one of the largest pirate treasure ship excavations ever? It will be a hoot to revisit Edward's anti-Christian bloggers. That illegitimate love child will pop out before the election too. Maybe Edwards will claim that "the Lord filled her with his hot, white, sticky Holy Spirit?"

He said Obama should give Edwards the VP slot and run ramshod over The Destined One.

Clearly, Silky didn’t get the memo from Dicky Morris this afternoon. Why does this man even bother to show up anymore? So sad. Oh well, at least his hair looked good tonight… got any video of that?

Gartrip on January 15, 2008 at 10:41 PM

Silky is either angling for the VP spot or his ego just won’t let him believe he doesn’t have a chance.

I’m betting on the VP angle. I can’t see either Hillary or Obama combining on a ticket for the fall, which leaves…Silky (or so he hopes).

Isn’t the Edwards constituency the gay white males and certain lawyers? Who do they go to after Edwards drops out?

I’m thinking a few more bare chested photos from the Obama campaign can win over most of the Edwards voters.
