Democrats Call for a New Direction for America (06|16|2006)
"Our new direction will advance a common agenda, seek common ground, and apply common sense in the service of the common good. We know that with a new direction, we can meet our national challenges in a way that makes our nation stronger, our economy more vibrant, and our families more secure. Instead of record deficits, we will go in this new direction in a fiscally sound way. We will make America more competitive and not heap mountains of debt on future generations."
From: Democrats Call for a New Direction for America - Press Release
Democrats are ready with a New Direction, with policies to address the real challenges Americans face every day. It will make health care more affordable; lower gas prices and achieve energy independence; help working families; cut college costs; ensure a dignified retirement, and make our government fiscally responsible again.
New Direction - isn't that what one lemming said to the other lemming?

Here is their head broad.
Sounds like an objective in desperate search of a plan.
Sounds like this press release was written by a teenager. Is this the best they can do?
Bush is incompetent, dishonest, he lied about WMD's, we need to cut and run, Bush is starving children, Bush never gives tax cuts to poor people, our military are murderers, ...........
New direction my a$$.
This is the, "We have a plan, and right now we're only telling you that we're going to raise your taxes!" speech, isn't it?
(Denny Crane: "Every one should carry a gun strapped to their waist. We need more - not less guns.")
eeeiiuuuwww
"Our new direction will advance a common agenda, seek common ground, and apply common sense in the service of the common good."
common = communist
And no, I'm not one of those to jump in with "IT'S ALREADY BEEN POSTED!!!! Just thought you'd appreciate if you hadn't seen it.
Sort of like this new direction?
The one issue where they could actually have a plan that people are upset with Bush about is the border. And they didn't even mention it. Because the rats are all in favor of amnesty and of giving benefits away to illegals.
Democrats New Direction= Cut and Run toward defeat
Translation: We, as an instrument of plunder, will use the income tax as a form of equality of outcome template to insure the votes of congenital idiots.
(Denny Crane: "Every one should carry a gun strapped to their waist. We need more - not less guns.")
Who in the heck is writing these talking points? Stalin?
TROFL!!! The Long March in the New Direction! Isn't that Madame Mao Tse Pelosi with the short hairdo?
Democrats Announce their 'Contract with America'
Remembering how Newt Gingrich's 1994 "Contract with America" helped
Republicans end 40 years of Democrat domination in the House of
Representatives, leading Democrats have announced their own version. Called
"Six in '06," the Democrats' contract has six planks:
(1) A congressional pay increase, also known as the "William Jefferson plank." "Representative Jefferson was forced to take on a role of a corrupt politician in what he thought was an independent film, but turned out to be
an FBI sting operation," said House Minority Leader, Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif). "If members of congress were paid a decent salary, this type of tragedy could have been averted." (Senators and Representatives currently
receive salaries of $162,100 per year.)
(2) Nationalizing health care. "Our medical care is a mess," said Senator Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y). "America's health is too important to be left up to the medical profession. It's time for the government to take control to ensure a more rational and equitable distribution of benefits."
(3) Impeaching President Bush. "Republicans impeached President Clinton for
diddling an intern," said Rep. John Conyers (D-Mich). "It'll be payback time
once we get the majority."
(4) Increasing taxes. "Republicans want voters to believe that lower taxes encourage investment and hard work," said Senator Minority Leader, Harry Reid (D-Nev.). "We say IRS audits and the threat of going to jail is all the encouragement required to make people work hard. Congress will do the investing once we restore the revenues given away by the Bush tax cuts."
(5) End the war on terror. "No matter how brave our soldiers are, no matter how valiant, no matter what their caring," said Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass). "Our soldiers cannot bring democracy to Iraq at the barrel of a gun. Some on the right use the fact that U.S. troops were able to defeat tyranny in World War II and bring democracy to Germany and Japan to try to support President Bush's ambitions for Iraq. But those were different times. We had a Democratic president, bipartisan support for the war effort, a cooperative media, and grateful foreign allies. Due to an unfortunate decision by too many voters in 2004, none of these key factors are present in the current crisis. Until that decision is reversed there is no hope. So, let's bring the troops home and end the bloodshed."
(6) "Wild card." "We really wanted to have six key issues-you know, six for 2006-but we couldn't agree on what the last item would be," said Howard Dean, Chairman of the Democratic National Committee. "Some wanted recognition of gay marriage, others suggested a law guaranteeing every woman's right to an abortion. So, we're keeping one slot open. Voters can fill-in the blank with whatever they want. On the other hand, there is this 'feces for fascists' idea coming out of Colorado that represents the kind of fresh
ideas our party needs. Eventually, maybe we'll get some focus groups together to figure out where our Party stands on some issue or other."
