I delved into Freeper Land today because I was curious to see what they had to say about Rove's resignation. Instead, I found this little gem about the Meet the Press debate between Harold Ford and Markos. It's really quite humorous, but if you'd rather not go into Freeper Land, follow me below the fold for the highlights.
The last three paragraphs are the best.
Ford sounded reasonable on the surface, touting the successes of the Clinton record and attributing those to DLC ideas. But in the end, Ford's message was garbled.
He said that to win national elections "you have to cross three hurdles." You must prove your "strength and trustworthiness on national security," that your values are in line with mainstream America and that you are trustworthy on "taxes, economic and fiscal policy."
So far so good. But how does that differ from the Republican platform?
So, the DLC is a republican organization now? Even the freepers are saying that the DLC has more in common with the republicans than the democrats.
And here's an even better part.
How does it square with what any national Democratic officeholders, save Sen. Joseph Lieberman, advocate?
I mean, we all knew Lieberman is a republican, but now we have it straight from the horse's elephant's mouth.
And, if you're not a republican, you're a communist.
Harold Ford wants Democrats to lie and pretend that they are not communists.
KOS thinks it's better for them to tell the truth.

Oh, and Kossacks? Be afraid. Be very afraid.
Markos Moulitsas is just dangerous.
