What has the Democratic party become?

[L K Day]

The party for whom an American triumph over the enemies of civilization is the worst possible news.

"Iraq has changed considerably, and while not pacified, it is certainly moving rapidly towards stability. The Iraqi people have left Barack Obama to bitterly cling to an Iraq that no longer exists, as a candidate unable to accept change or provide hope." Ouch.

Republicans gave the African Americans emancipation, the democrats gave them a return to enslavement, no wonder they remain a democratic party voting block.

I have absolutely no idea what the eff any of that is supposed to mean and I've read it a few times.

you'd make a good liberal charlie....no reading comprehension and a genuine hater.

Lincoln was the original Republican, he produced the Emancipation Proclamation that freed the slaves, at least in the confederacy but that was just some lawyerize that anyone without a law degree refers to as bullshit. Over time and the demise of the American intelligentsia it became obvious to the liberal nutjobs that appealling to the minorities could well swing elections in their favor, (not unlike the way current Repubs play the national security issue, gay-marriage, immigration etc) when Johnson opened the vault so to speak with welfare and affirmative action etc. he undid the good that had occured to minorities following the second world war and policies that broke down color barriers were replaced with the policies that put race back in the forefront, it destroyed the family and enslaved the recipients of government handouts, to govt. housing, govt healthcare etc. to maintain this enslavement for a lack of a more PC term minorities became a democratic voting block. Thats my take but I'm confused about the Obama reference in the original post.

It that even a complete sentence?

"Iraq has changed considerably, and while not pacified, it is certainly moving rapidly towards stability.

Although solid sentence structure the accuracy of that statement is definitely debatable. I applaud whoever it was that originally wrote it for command of basic grammar.

The Iraqi people have left Barack Obama to bitterly cling to an Iraq that no longer exists, as a candidate unable to accept change or provide hope." Ouch.

The Iraqi people have left the political campaign for Obama? The fact that certain delusional groups believe the "rapid movement towards stability" will inevitably destroy the Democratic Party? What the hell is that supposed to mean?

I understand some people cannot grasp any politician complex enough to develop a platform with more than a single plank, but Iraq is not what I am voting for. And no, I am not a Democrat.

Seriously, that is the worst troll I've ever seen. Continue with pedestrian political spouting if need be, but at least use complete sentences.

kthxbye

What has Charlie become? A person that attempts to turn a perfectly lucid troll into an English lesson.

Pacified??? . . . .?

Stability? You mean stability without USA occupation? How is that assessed?

Rhetoric and fear got us there and rhetoric and fear will keep us there. Rhetoric and fear will likely prevent many Americans from voting for a Woman or a Black person.

rhetoric and fear will stop many from voting for another old white man hell bent on occupying the world....your sexist and racist statement can not sway me....only ageism will work.
