Well maybe not a disgrace, but a very interesting thing to ponder. I was listening to my favorite talk show host the other day, Dennis Prager. He has taken the "success in Iraq is bad for Democrats" thing a step further. If you want to debate the Iraq success is bad for Dems thing call your favorite Dem, because they have been quoted in public as saying so. With that out of the way . . . Dennis went on to ask "What good thing for America is also good for Democrats?" His belief? Nothing!

Ponder that for a minute and then post one thing that could happen that would be both good for America and also good for Democrats. Examples: If the economy surges, that is bad for Democrats, or said another way, good for Republicans. Another very interesting one: Democrats are very heavily favored by single women. It could be argued that women who happily marry and have children and raise families are good for America, but statistically very bad for Democrats. Conceptually this exercise may **** you off, but again: What event or occurrence that would be good for America would also be good for the Democrat Party in general?

I fully expect for some of you to believe the premise is absurd. Please resist that and give me an example. It will make this much simpler. I'll add that this is a pretty sad, and yes even disgraceful, position to be in for a Political party . . . ;)

If I stop farting in public that would be good for America and for Democrats (they could watch their movies in peace).

I see no basis in fact to these assertions.....
Both single women & married women are good for America, as well as one does not need to be married to have children, nor do married women necessarily have children.........
I also think that when the economy surges, it is good for everyone as long as the methods used to make it surge are not "VOODOO" economics....
Your comparison model is flawed, I'm afraid.....
Those must have been some hellacious 'shrooms.....:p

If Rush Limbaugh would be removed from the airwaves,it would be good for America and good for the democrats.
It would not be good for free speech and democracy.

I was and am serious . . . It is a pretty interesting discussion if you will take it seriously (yeah, I know I don't take the Blo Ho's posits seriously, but come on, that's just logical on my part).

Example: Blo Ho, I know you think heterosexual, married, child rearing is no better than any other family model. I submit that is absurd. Next.

Re: Another Democrat Disgrace . . .

BTW, many Democrats are against stating that Heterosexual marriage is a good thing, and in the case of Women it statistically works against them. But many are in favor of Homosexual marriage . . . Huh?

Re: Another Democrat Disgrace . . .

I don't think all dems are totally liberal, just misguided. But when it comes to the modern "liberal" -- I've often pondered what type of "America" they envision. What must it be like to watch President Bush land on a US aircraft carrier and be treated like an American hero, with a banner behind him stating "Mission Accomplished?
"I know", says Larry the lib.. "I'll take it out of context ,then make a joke out of it!"
Such logic DOES dictate the path of the democrat party, but that doesn't mean they all hate the country that much. I think they call them "moderates" or something. :rolleyes:

Easy there, 12. Pretty soon you'll be rationalizing why even though they vote for people that support baby murdering, they're actually against it themselves.

QC, I can't believe I'm about to do this, but I'm going to defend libs.

God don't strike me now.....

Whenever a party is in office, pretty much anything good that happens will benefit the party in office and hurt the party not in office. That went for the repubs during the Clinton years as much as for the libs during the Bush years.

Doesn't anybody else see that as well? It's not so much a party thing as just normal politics playing out.

Re: Another Democrat Disgrace . . .

Yeah I was thinking that too, but there are lots of examples that work regardless of who is in power. If more women marry it is bad for Dems no matter what. I am sure there are more examples. If Global Warming is debunked (good for America) bad for Dems. If abortion is widely assailed, bad for Dems. If it is proven that racism is not as prevalent as they preach (Good for America) Bad for Dems. If it is proven that we should be stronger on defense . . . I am back to it works even when Dems are in power (they are in Congress) . . . If it is proven that OJ did it, good for . . . well maybe not that one.

Re: Another Democrat Disgrace . . .

It is a completely flawed argument.

I would be thrilled if we caught/killed OBL tomorrow, There is a general peace and coming together in Iraq, Stock market goes to 15 k tomorrow, and health care is available from all employers to all citizens in this country, etc..

If that would happen (or even close) I for one would even vote for them.

Unfortunately, there is no chance any of that could happen, and it is my concerted opinion that how we are going about things are taking us in the precise opposite direction. It's remotely possible I'm wrong, and I'd love to be proved wrong.

You've had almost 7 years to prove me wrong, and so far you have succeeded in reinforcing what I believe to be true.

It's time for a radical course shift.

Hey, you have a little more than a year left with Bush--there is still time. Have at it! Prove me wrong!

NO Waterinthefuel, yer real wrong here. The Republicans were working real hard on their CORNTRACT with America and the stock market was surging in the Clinton years, (forced him to sign welfare reform after two vetos, remember?????) Bob Dole, (a good Honorable guy that had been doin' deals in Washington far toooooooooo long did not say things were worse then the Great Depression et al.

The MSM also focuses on bad news when Republicans are in the White house, just reflect on all the coverage of homelessness et al durring the Reagan admin. Remember Sen Dodd n' the rest of the "Clintonistas" tryin' to help poor ol' Daniel Ortega establish a Commie country just South of MEXICO????? Modern Dems always work closely with any and all of our enemies!! The Republicans just focused tooooooooooo much on a minor lil' thing about one person: William Jefferson Clinton, who INTENTIONALLY COMMITTED PERJURY, they never trashed the Country like the dim wits ALWAYS do with the MSM echo chamber. Go to the library and read ten or twenty year old magizines, You are incorrect here: my friend. Depressed dim wit DEMS always talk down our COUNTRY! Respectfully, JR

No: PW2 COMPLETLY SOUND! Go back ta sleep.

You would; but dim wit Dem leadership would not!!

If that would happen (or even close) I for one would even vote for them.

I don't believe that PW2. Sorry.

Unfortunately, there is no chance any of that could happen, and it is my concerted opinion that how we are going about things are taking us in the precise opposite direction. It's remotely possible I'm wrong, and I'd love to be proved wrong.

Hmmmm, one of the strongest economies on record, deficit falling rapidly, full employment. PW2, if I did not have one brain cell that worked, I'd believe a guy who wants more hurricanes so ya can do more business. Sorry, the brain cell works.

You've had almost 7 years to prove me wrong, and so far you have succeeded in reinforcing what I believe to be true.

Nah, yer nappin' or smokin' we can tell PW2.

It's time for a radical course shift.

Terlet here we come!!!

Hey, you have a little more than a year left with Bush--there is still time. Have at it! Prove me wrong!

Re: Another Democrat Disgrace . . .

If your contentions are accurate, Murky, and that every thing is as rosy as you describe, what I think, as well as what Dems think, will be completely irrelevant.

The American voter is a smart bunch most times, and if that is true they will recognize it and your side will win in a landslide.

I'm willing to risk that and take my chances.
