I want to be associated with people who have strong positive beliefs and values that I share

and that doesn't mean they have to have a "D" stamped on their foreheads...

commenter paul...

The best thing you can do to someone who is trying to fracture your coalition (from the left) is to (1) take note of their complaints, because maybe some of your own supporters share them and then SQUASH THEM LIKE A BUG.

This is not a game, folks. Cindy has betrayed the Democratic party, and it's time to crush her - just in case she gets traction. I honestly doubt she will though.

right now, the very fabric of our country is being torn asunder... the principles of our constitution are under attack... that is not a republican issue, a democratic issue, a libertarian issue, a green party issue, an independent issue, an agnostic issue, a christian issue, a muslim issue, an african-american issue, or a latino issue... it is OUR issue...

when OUR country is going to hell in a handbasket, and there are nearly as many worthless and corrupt democratic politicians as there are republicans, we simply have to find a way to come together as a nation and get ourselves back on the track we jumped many years ago, well before the current gang of criminals took office... that doesn't mean centrism, that doesn't mean moderation, and it certainly doesn't mean that dreaded word "bipartisanship..." it means citizens, average citizens, citizens like you and me, reclaiming the power we have been given by our constitution to decide the legitimacy of our government and to guide and direct its actions... the elites of neither party are about to let that happen, and so we are faced with a dilemma...

cindy sheehan, in her bumbling, stumbling, spotlight-seeking, somewhat naive, somewhat self-pitying way, i think recognizes that, and for that, i give her credit... nancy pelosi, along with every other elected leader in this country, ought to be crying the alarm of our constitutional crisis from every county courthouse tower in every county seat in the nation, but she isn't and they aren't... unwavering and, imho, blind support of a democratic "coalition" isn't going to save us...
