Meh, this sort of de-construction of the left based on Bush's reelection is laughable at best. It was a mandate of law, not a mandate of the people.
These threads are indeed getting tiresome.
They always purport to be "sincerely interested in helping the left," or words to that effect, and they always proceed to lead the party by the hand, in the most condescending possible way, to help the poor benighted Democrat fools to understand why they need to become Republicans in everything but name.
They invariably mention Michael Moore as though he was Dr. Mengele, while conveniently ignoring the Republican party's own innumerable crazy old uncles (this is the same party that, for example, tried to reach out to black voters by bringing Don King on the campaign trail). They blather on about the evils of moveon.org when they were perfectly happy with the Swift Vets, Jerome Corsi, Newsmax, Michael Savage, and any and every other sleazy booster that showed up to support them.
They claim that Democrats are "radical" when in point of fact it's their own party that has never been more radical and secretive than it is presently.
I won't post again in this thread because it, and every other thread like it, bores me to tears.
As I have said innumerable times, I congratulate President Bush and his party on their victory. I also ask that they leave our party to lick our wounds and find our way. The Democrats don't need, or want, the patronizing, self-serving advice of Republicans on where to go from here.
