The Democrat Party is beyond corrupt, It's also evil.
And what is this evil that triumphs when good men do nothing? What are we really talking about here and is it worth fighting for? Is it worth turning our heads and allowing evil to continue on while we do nothing? (and I count voting for a third party candidate when knowing that he has absolutely no chance of defeating the Democrat, and worse, actually planning and hoping to knock out the Republican candidate who otherwise might have defeated the Democrat, as doing nothing).
Corruption is accepting campaign cash from the Chinese in exchange for military hardware. Corruption is accepting campaign cash as bribes from Indonesian power brokers, from Buddhist Monks, from corrupt corporate moguls. Corruption is defined by the myriad criminal acts and practices of the Clintons and the Gores and their corrupt Democrat minions.
Corruption is the land grabs, the power grabs, the gun grabs, the bribery, the shady deals, the high crimes and treason. Corruption is the theft of campaign dollars through forced labor union deductions. Corruption is the systematic indoctrination of several generations of our youth with socialist dogma via government school systems. Corruption is the removal of God from public life and substituting in the evil homosexual/feminist agenda and the destruction of moral society. Corruption is lying to the public about global warming and the selling of the Kyoto treaty. Corruption is giving up our national sovereignty to the United Nations. Corruption is the abuses of office, obstruction of justice, lying, perjury and subornation of perjury.
The Democrat Party is thoroughly corrupt. There is no question about that, but it's way beyond corrupt. It's also evil.
Waco was evil. The killing of innocent men, women, children and babies is evil. Torturing them for weeks on end, gassing them, and then burning them alive is pure evil. This was perpetrated by a corrupt and evil Democrat Administration and covered-up by corrupt and evil Democrat Congressmen and Senators, many of whom you are saying should be allowed to remain in office even today.
And as bad as that is, it pales in comparison to the Democrat government sanctioned and funded wholesale slaughter of the most innocent life of all, the murder of innocent human life in the womb. This is evil. Pure evil. And this evilness is openly perpetrated by a thoroughly corrupt and evil Democrat Party. The same corrupt and evil Democrat Congress and Judiciary whom you are now saying deserve to remain in office.
IMHO, allowing these Democrats to remain in power is aiding and abetting the corruption and treason, and is acting as an accessory before and after the fact to the murderers of innocent human life. Is doing nothing and allowing this evil to triumph evil itself?
I love my country. I love the Constitution. I love life. I love God. I know that the Democrats hate my country, hate the Constitution, hate God and hate human life. I see that the only Party capable of blocking and defeating the evil Democrats is the Republican Party. I see that many races are so close that as little as a one percent siphon of conservative votes to a third party could be the difference between success and failure. I see allowing a Democrat to remain in power when it could have been prevented as a triumph of evil.

He's the only real North Carolinian between the two major contenders.
Have a problem with that? Blame Bush and the rest of the GOP powermongers.
Free Republic is becoming as much an extremist fringe group as is Democratic Underground, courtesy of the Hyper-Republicans on board.
And we're becoming worse than the Clintonistas ever were!! Those idiots worshipped Clinton as if he were God on earth. How the hell can we say we're any different than they when the Bush-bots fawn and swoon at the feet of King Dubya? We poked so much fun at the Clintonites, and less than two years later we've become just like them.
Restore freedom in America: vote out the Republi-Crats!!!
I've been around internet message boards for quite some time, and you're statement is absurd.
Try having a debate on salon's Table Talk and get back to me.
Sure, there are a fair number of rabid Bush types here. But no where else will you find the kind of give and take as you will here.
Zell is only out for one person, and that's Zell. I lived in Georgia while he was Governor; they didn't call him Zig-Zag-Zell for nothing.
FYI... Despite all his demonstrated independence, Zell is still good friends with BillyJeff. Nuff said.
Live with it. Accept the fact that humans are imperfect. Recognize that things aren't neat and tidy in the real world. Take a deep breath and exhale slowly.
Now I'm gonna say this in words of one syllable or less so you cannot misunderstand. "Politics is the art of the possible." You never get perfection. So, if that's what you want, go live in a cave and stop wasting bandwidth.
If you want to have a say in the final process, that is what happens after they (whoever they turn out to be) get elected, you must participate. And that means, are you ready for this, choosing the better of two leading candidates when you have some doubts about both of them.
Either do that, or quit bitching about the results. Because if you don't do that, you are irrelevant to the final outcome. Choose to be irrelevant if you wish; that is your right. But then don't compain about your irrelevance because you asked for it.
Is that clear enough for you?
I'm doing the best I can to make things better. Click any link below for proof. Are you?

Remember the Capra/Stewart classic, Mr. Smith Goes to Washington? Well there is no sequel, Mr. Smith Serves His Fourth Term, because by then Mr. Smith has had all the idealism and integrity squeezed out of him like a tube of toothpaste under a steam roller.

Usually when I mention Term Limits here on FR. Someone hands me my head on a platter.
When everything is reduced to its lowest form, in my opinion, it is either term limits now or revolution later. Barring that, there is nothing to stop our slide into the worst kind of socialism. Those that honestly believe that they can stop this slide into socialism via the ballot box are deluding themselves.
FDR found out that one could buy power via the Federal treasury. Since then the professional politicians of both parties have taken a deathgrip on power. It is indeed shameful that we have people dying of old age in office. That is an indictment of the voters.
You go about patting yourself on the back and tell yourself that you have really tried. BS, you have aided and abetted these petty politicians while they raped and pillaged our country. You are doing it now when you rush to protect the republican party and GWB. Have you ever stood up and said, this candidate is not good enough. No you haven't. You talk of being irelevent, you are and have been nothing more than a Judas goat, leading the sheeple to slaughter.
You set your sights too low and you posture about while trying to rationalize your loss of principles. You cast stones at people who won't bend before the republican banner and cajole people for putting principles before party. Do you really believe that there is an ounce of difference between the republican party and the democrat party? Look where we are today and tell me how much better we are than we were 10 years ago and where the republicans have made a difference in that last 8 years. The republicans didn't even have the courage to remove a criminal from the office of the presidency. Just politics I guess.
The election of 2000 brought a supposedly honest administration to the executive branch. The first thing that GWB did was to ignore the vandalization of the White House. The next thing GWB did was to stop all investigation of the Clinton administration, probably the most corrupt administration in the history of this country. Why? Because it was politically expedient. That means he didn't want to do anything to hurt his chances for re-election. So much for honor and integrity. The Bush administration is presently engaged in a war on terriorism, but Bush himself will not allow the borders of this country to be closed. Why? You know why, he wants to gain as many legal and illegal mexican votes as he can in 2002, and 2004. Let's destroy the culture of this country so we can get re-elected. Great political philosophy.
Now let me tell you something sonny. As long as you and people like you continue to accept the lesser of two evils to run this country, this country will continue on its morally bankrupt path. One day, one of your lesser of two evils will decide to make him/herself dictator of America. And we will have you to thank for it.
Is that clear enough for you.
I was General Counsel to Eugene McCarthy when he ran as an independent for President in 1976. You can look that up in the American Bar Association Journal, August, 1977. I was legal advisor to John Anderson when he did the same thing in 1980. You can look that up through footnote 14 in Anderson v. Celebrezze in the Supreme Court, in 1983.
Like I say, I do what I can. You, "sonny," are a useless blowhard who assumes things that are false.
