    •  I wrote it this afternoon because (none / 0)

      I'm so sick of Republican mischaratarization. The party of perceived accountability and responsibility having absolutely none ...
      All they did was to attack Kerry's strengths, the simple answer might be to attack a strength they can't defend without sacrificing high level players.
      Prime voters for the idea to expect some accountability - They wont see any, even DeLay's fall will be no more than a splosh.

      Hanging "Where's the responsibility and accountability for this then?" around their necks until 2006 will do us good and Dems ethical standards wont be compromised, because it'll be true. :)

        •  I'm thinking ... (none / 0)

          that it's meant as an attack on the Republican party, and not the voter.
          No fact, argument or truth has had anywhere near the effect that rising gas prices has .. the straw men frame increases the animosity if they think they have been duped as well.
          Realistically the moral moronity have absolutely no idea what the Republican party represents because they've never been told!

          I do see the Foxworth rant as a parallel but for me it focusses on identifying what the voter stands for ..
