And of course Romney will do NONE of those things you hate Obama for doing!
We know that because the Republicans are such a peace loving, peaceable people who would never wiretap American citizens or needlessly kill innocent foreigners in their own land.
You say both parties are equally bad, but somehow you never seem to be able to post anything factual about the Republicans that casts them in a bad light.
Whether you mean to or not, you are throwing many people into the "gentle, loving" arms of the Republican Party.
Or maybe you think Romney is okay and you look forward to his presidency because you believe that will "show" Obama a thing or two!
Dear slandering sack of shit that I've repeatedly asked to stop commenting here:
1. This site started over 6 years ago as a Bush-bashing blog. The GOP sucked then, and it sucks still, because it stands for a horrible, inhumane, conservative agenda.
2. My readership is primarily those who have come to see that the Democrats suck because they, too, have a horrible, inhumane, conservative agenda.
3. Only in your lying and/or deluded mind is this a site that considers the heinous GOP as anything like gentle or loving.
Yes Vastleft, the topic of how bad Romney is, is vastly under-reported. The only people talking about it are everyone on Obama's $1 billion campaign payroll, every Democrat operative on every political cable show, every website run by a tribal Democrat, and the ubiquitous hordes sheep-like Obots. Vastleft, it's clear you should relinquish your blog's distinctive voice and message, and instead focus on reprinting the Obama campaign's talking points.
It's great that discussions are starting up here; but damn, can we please get better trolls than Anonymous?
I'm so tired of hearing Democrats excuse their Republican mimicking behavior by saying the Republicans do it too.
I insult Democrats to their faces for their support of policies only a Republican should be proud of.
I miss all the the Democratic critiques of Republican policies that disappeared when Obama started carrying that water.
Kick the Republican policy loving Democratic Party frauds out of here. They are wimpy against Republican policies and can only stand up with any vigor with their Republican allies against those too left to be a Democrat.
Democrats think they are a threat to Republicans, but their only bravery is in attacking dissenters against Republican policies supported by Democrats.
Scott Brown, Massachusetts' Republican senator, claims he has had "secret meetings" with royal figures. Brown claimed that "Each and every day that I've been a United States senator, I've been discussing issues, meeting on issues, in secret meetings with kings and queens and prime ministers and business leaders and military leaders, talking, voting, working on issues every single day."
Geez, which "kings and queens" has Scott been having these "secret meetings" with?
Oh, his campaign said Scott "misspoke."
Well, if he "misspoke," he has "misspoken" more than once and repeated that same assertion more than once.
I think we can assume that most people discussing here know the nature of the evil residing in the Republican Party.
I don't think anyone here will argue that good things will come from Republican rule. Even children who were 10 years old when Bush took office should have picked up on the disasters that have come to America under Republican rule. We don't need reminding. That would be redundant. There is almost nothing new to say about this. This is the fact of life we live and die with.
The discussion everywhere should be on how to resist that evil, not how to make friends with it. When The D's forgive every unlawful incursion—past, present and future—and thereby demonstrate their spinelessness, and then do the same things the R's do, that is noteworthy and deserving of examination.
Suppression of that examination does those that are any degree to the left of the Republican Party no good.
Democrats joining in with the Republican Party to quash dissent are despicable. Democrats should be joining in with the opposition to Republican rule instead of acting like blue dog curs, licking their boots.
O-bot @ 3:55, thanks to Poe's Law I can't tell if you're a dedicated troll or just a fucking idiot with all the intellectual rigor of a dining room table. If it's the former, then good job, I'm sure your parents are very proud. If it's the latter, then arguing with you any further is pointless. Go start your own fucking blog if you're so concerned that not enough people have joined the chorus of "Ha ha, those Republicans!"
By the way, both VLWC and Romney advocate not slamming your own face repeatedly into a brick wall. Obviously you don't want to associate yourself with such evil stealth-Republican thinking, so you better find a brick wall post-haste lest some invisible monster in your head thinks you support a Republican.
The Anonymouses of the world never cease to amaze me. How do you simultaneously hold these two things in your head.
1. Republicans are pure evil and will destroy us all. 2. The most important thing to do is elect Democrats, who are 99% identical to Republicans.
It's a failure of perspective, lack of imagination, I think. It's like, you can't imagine any way of thinking other than what's espoused by the two morons you just saw on CNN.
Dear lord both sides are corrupt, the government over the years have had the attitude of "oh well what are the people going to do." The gov has turned into a pack of wolves full of greed. If you think they care about you, you are a fool. Obama is passing out hard working people's money for votes if that's not greed I don't know what is. Romney greedy as hell too...yet these are the two jerk offs we have to choose from. This is not America!

The more cynical explanation is that the Democrats provide a laundering service for people who stand to reap the spoils of a heinous right-wing policy regime but don't want their personal reputations tarnished by their association with it.

Shorter Anonymous: By calling arsenic "poison," you're objectively pro-strychnine.
I'm amazed at how many people think the Democratic Party is a party of the left just because the institutional party of the right says this is so.
Why would anyone who thinks of himself as of the left believe anything the right says?
You say both parties are equally bad, but somehow you never seem to be able to post anything factual about the Republicans that casts them in a bad light.

FYI, I'm now deleting troll comments that slander this site as being a stealth GOP site.

Nathan, that's an essential theme to me. I'm continually trying to distill that into cartoon form.
