Right. Uniter not divider. Great monosyllabic soundbytes when one is on the campaign trail. Its a shame his policies are all those of 20 years ago. He will drive the great wedge which will eventually lead to the progressive revolution. It is beginning here friend.

I disagree that the so-called left wingers supported Clinton during his term. They did support him during the divisive political machinations of the Rs in that impeachment debacle. However, they did not support many of his policies.

That is one great thing that Clinton and you guys share - the excessively pro-business anti-working man and middle class agenda. The DNC and RNC are politically basically the same thing in my opinion. Al From walks to the beat of the same drummer as your guys (not that I would ever say that on the record, though - the reasons I believe he does so are related to the money-grubbing requirements of the political machine). The progressive movement is building and neither the RNC nor DNC will keep it from happening. I do believe Your President will do wonders for the movement b/c his policies are so amazing contrary to what the majority of the American people want and believe. But I digress. . .

Nice snip. You never answered your own questions, however. Can't really point to a need for that recent bill, can you? Where are the numbers showing that state laws don't adequately cover the new crime? And, truly, how many people does it affect? As Scumbria said, it is a convenient backdoor method of attempting to limit access to legal and constitutionally protected reproductive procedures.

If your party is so decidedly pro-woman, what happened to the domestic violence bill? I'm guessing that the truth of the matter is that fetal rights fall a bit above women's rights in Your leadership's eyes. But, I guess that women who remain pregnant or who are meeting their mothering duties will have a role in the party, yes?

Damn, that was some tirade I just spewed. Now that the manifesto has been posted, I think I'll head home. Have a good weekend. I'm off for a little RnR in lovely Seattle.

regards,

ham
