Rules for the StrongCrat wing of the Democratic Party
- We don't take any shit from anybody, about anything, ever. This means we don't let loony activist Judge Owen on the bench. This means we fight, not cave. This means we get angry when necessary, and down in the dirt if absolutely necessary.
- See Rule #1
- Bush lied us into war. Bush should be tried before a military tribunal, since he is the "Commander in Chief" and found guilty of high treason. No ifs, buts, or maybes.
- Cheney comes next.
- Iraq - cut and run. Secure the most important oilfields, since that is what this war was all about anyway. Give oil profits to Iraqis for destroying their country.
- Bolton, Owen, and all the other wackos - we will never support them, and never allow a vote. If Frist wants to eliminate the filibuster, then we will take it to the people and disrupt government until the next election. We will hold weekly new conferences to announce how badly the right-wing has fucked things up. We will speak as one against the tyranny of the majority, and we will win.
- We will never back down from a rigged election ever again. We will fight with every tool at our disposal, and never, EVER, care what the right-wing loonies or the pundits think. They aren't on our side, and we should know that by now.
- We will pass Kyoto, or something like it, and we will increase CAFE standards. We will also start a Manhattan Project for alternative energy, including funding research into algae-derived biodiesel, electric car battery technology, and hydrogen. This is an imperative.
- Democrats that cave into special interests or to the right will be outed and ostracized. The time for divisions is over. The time for big tents, Lieberman-style, is over. If they want to be Republicans, then let htem have the decency to officially join the Republican Party and be done with it.
- Abortion will be preserved as safe, legal, and rare. Religious nuts that want to change the law? They can start their own damn Theocracy in some other country. No compromise.
- We will repeal any trade agreement that doesn't respect human rights, a livable wage, and environmental protections.
- We will fight tooth and nail against an establishment that says the only way to grow our economy is to lose high-paying jobs.
- We will support the military in words and in actions.
- We will repeal tax cuts for the wealthy in order to pay off the deficit.
- We will value people over corporations.
- We will never back down, never quit, and never stop fighting for the working people of this country.
- Losing is not an option.
- We will demand revocation of tax-exempt status for any churches acive in politics.
- We will demand the news networks end their conservative bias. We will scream this in every corner of every town in every state in this country until our voices are heard.
- We will personally take on Fox News and their Republican bias and demand, in a court of law, they stop using "Fair and Balanced." Even if we lose, we will fight this as long as possible, and get as much publicity as possible.
- We will be organized, united, and forceful in our united message.
- We will repeat our message loud and clear so that everyone in this country knows what the Democratic Party stands for.
- We will win.
