Thanks for posting the conversation - I think this was a very important revelation of what the dems are up to. It points up their willingness to support x42 but not Bush 43.

But basically, I was correct - I don't know what the hell she said. What a bunch of mubojumbo of a statement. The dems can talk more and say less than anybody else I know.

[Alas Babylon!]

What she THINKS she convinced you of was this:
Democrats are good, patriotic Americans. We would never simply do things for political expediency, no never! But for the right reasons. Us democrats like to be able to look into our conscience and know that we did the right thing, not the political thing.

And the truth:
We're a bunch of anti-American commies. Why, Bill and I were protesting in the old Soviet Union, for heaven's sake! And we wrote the book on political expediency. Trangulation? We invented that. When the Republicans took over Congress in '94, did it faze us? No, we simply spoke out on what we thought the little people wanted to hear: welfare reform, balance budget, military might. Ha! Did we fool the suckers that time. As far as our consciences go, what the hell is that? I don't know from personal experience. I have no trouble looking in mirrors--I have no reflection!!! I do have one magic mirror that tells me I'm the fairest of them all....
