Ill keep this one short. Our favorite great republican thinker, who has run into some problems as of late, gets an earful from an Iowan voter.
Lets be honest, we all knew that Newt's baggage extends further than the marriages. Its the fact that he's a loud mouth who pops off with the most ridiculous claims over and over again because well he can. Hes been out of politics for over 12 years so he gets to sit back and analyaze.

Democrats right now are in a battle to frame the debate on healthcare repeal. To me there are soo many ways for us to put republicans on the defensive and we haven't even scratched the surface. There are many points of emphasis that we can and should pursue and I'd like to explore a few.

I don't know about what you all think but John king usa is probably one of the worst political commentary shows I've seen. In all honesty CNN's entire 5-9 line up is utter crap. I was watching either yesterday or the day before and they had on their usual panel of dunces who spout utter foolishness in the hopes of appearing knowledgeable. Gloria Borger, offers absolutely nothing to a conversation; Alex Castellanos the man who said sometimes women can be bitches; Jessica yellen indifferent about her; Erik Erickson I could slap for the idiocy he brings; John avalon of the no labels group and some other lames. Anyway so I guess right now the big issue is debt and deficits so the Villagers say and this is the way to get America moving forward. And naturally the two or three things that need to be trimmed are go figure social security Medicare and Medicaid.

Hello everyone, I am here today to appeal to your better nature. Right now my community is suffering from a civil war between three separate factions, the supporters, the professionals, and the elected. These three groups are going for the throats of eachother and everyoneis going to end up hurt. I love my community and want them to focus their anger frustration and passion in a more constructive way. Across the street from my community is a rival group that is unfocused passionate and angry. They hold conflicting beliefs and seek to alter the very fabric or our society to something that never has and never should exist. Currently we are sounding and behaving similarly as they are

I often ask myself what is it about being a progressive/liberal/democrat that draws me to its philosophy. Well this is maybe my third diary or so and something yesterday so emotional and powerfully upsetting happened to me that it really stayed on my mind. This is will be my personal argument for why being such an ardent fits me and i think most of us here can attest to.
I was at my girlfriends apartment when her neighbor knocks on the door. I dont speak to them often because well they dont know me, but we exchange greetings whenever able.

Hello all, this is maybe my 3 diary and its going to be a series of tips that I hope Dems will use to their and our advantage. Like me I'm sure many of you are there are tired of hearing about the wave of republicans coming in to office. Fact is the republican candidates seeking for re-election are running on merely dismantling and repealing most of whats be done by POTUS and Congress. Here are some things that have just generally crossed my mind as to how we as a party take on the public meme that we are going to get slaughtered.

With the recent deaths of 6 African Americans from drowing in LA due to flooding, I believe this is something that should be addressed, not just because I am African American, but as a Marine Corps officer it is a requirement of Marines that we be proficient in swimming and usually minorities tend to have the most problems from officer to senior enlisted with swimming.

A combination of factors - including parents who can't swim, limited access to pools and even a lower socioeconomic level - are largely influencing a minority swimming gap, according to a new survey.
Almost 60% of African-American children living in metropolitan areas can't swim, nearly twice the rate of white non-swimmers, the survey says.
John Cruzat, national diversity specialist for USA Swimming, the governing body of competitive swimming in the U.S., which commissioned the survey, said when the agency looked at the field of competitive swimmers, it lacked diversity.
"Communities of color typically didn't gravitate to the sport," Cruzat said. http://www.jsonline.com/...

So over the last few days Ive been attempting to think of ways Dems/Progressives can go on the offense over the recess as well as generally speaking with economic issues. The issue at hand isnt the amount of facts, we as Dems/porgressives have plenty of facts, its just a matter of packaging in a way so that it reaches the individual and makes sense to them. Not asking for soundbites because frankly those are worthless, Id just like for something that goes directly at the individual voter.

Hello all this is my first diary post here on kos I'm a big fan of the site and a pretty diehard progressive. In any event with the passing of the Arizona Discrimination bill and abolishment of Ethnic studies and the arguments used by conservatives in support of the bill I felt it necessary to comment or at least post my take on the matter.
