Wake the fuck up people!!! Changing the date of the Florida primary was the EXCLUSIVE work of the Florida legislature, which is controlled by the Republican party. The Democrats in Florida had no control over this stupid political move, and to claim that they “went along with it” is not only uninformed nonsense, it is patently ignorant!
The national Democrat Party made it publicly known to all members, long before the Republicans in Florida created this problem, that it would not sanction an election primary held before the traditional date of the Florida primary; and all of the 2008 Democrat candidates signed off on this policy of their national party. Subsequent to the unsanctioned primary, one candidate has recanted on the pledge to not recognize the primary. This in no way can be construed to mean that all of the other candidates support the disenfranchisement of Florida Democrats; it simply means that one, of many, has decided to misconstrue the situation, promulgated by Republican chicanery, in an attempt to gain an undeserved political advantage.
Does anyone really believe that there is any Democrat candidate who does not value the votes of the Florida Democrats, and does not want their votes to be counted? What kind of silly fucking Rovian nonsense is going on here?
Both the Florida and Michigan state Democrat Parties will work out a way to seat a delegation at the national convention, in concert with the rules of the Party that simply require that the delegates reflect the will of the Florida voters.

I didn’t know that. I was seriously otherwise occupied when this was news. If it is true, the Dems are too stupid to live.

Will someone confirm this is true/false?

The Florida legislature voted to move the Primary date up in front of the allowable date set by DNC. Charlie Christ signed it. Charlie Christ and the Florida legislature all knew exactly what they were getting up to when they moved the date. They did it in the face of the facts, their election was not going to be valid and they knew it. It was to their political advantage to play hardball with DNC. The Florida Democrats went along. (a really truly stupid move)

ARGGHHHH!

I’ll have few when we know your son is home safe. (and his mates)

PS. Your post had the effect of bringing focus to what is important.

God speed. Did the asprin help?

2. Randi Rhodes calls Hillary a Whore at Obama event. Result: silence from Obama camp.

3. Ed Schultz calls McCain a warmonger at Obama event. Result: Obama camp dissasociates itself from Schultz’s comments.

What the hell am I missing here?

There are a few voices of reason here and there trying to somehow bring some unity (without pony) back into the Democratic Party.

What many do not seem to understand is that many women, saw and realized for the first time that the Democratic Party really has no use for them other than in a supporting role.

Now there are many fine actresses in supporting roles. Doing a wonderful job and making us proud. The problem is that the Democratic Leadership, The DNC, the MSM and most of Left Blogostan apparently believes that women should only be allowed supporting roles. And some of us, in fact many of us, are really pyst off about that.

And so some of us, in fact many of us, are quite ready willing and able to tell the Democratic Party, The DNC, the MSM and most of Left Blogostan to go to hell.

Don’t try and scare us with tales of the evil McCain. We don’t find him half as frightening as the fact that a significant portion of our Party and the media are not only accepting of misogyny, but leading the way.

What they can’t seem to see, or won’t see, is that pyssing on a significant portion of your constituency is not smart politics. And pyssing off a significant number of your viewing audience is not smart either. So we’ll be perfectly happy to make our displeasure apparent at the polls and with our remotes.

And when you get tired of blaming Bill and Hillary Clinton for the fact that John McCain is preparing to give his acceptance speech take a good long look in the mirror.

I personally will vote in November even if Obama is the candidate. But I won’t vote for him. I will write in Hillary Clinton, vote for a few worthy Dems down-ticket and go home happy in the knowledge that I performed my civic duty by voting and my duty to myself as a woman by not voting for either Obama or McCain.

All three (Clinton, McCain, Obama) will get to question Patreus today, which can be seen on C-Span.

While simultaneously, Maliki calls for Al-Sadr to disband his army, and while Al-Sadr appears to be leaning the opposite way.

I can’t help wondering what the long term effects are that the U.S. ’08 campaign and the developing Iraqi politics are going to have on each other.

He does more than talk the talk. As he is now, I would not only have no problem voting for him, I would love to. (That is if I could just get over my racist ways.)

SoapBlox the host, says in one of their own blogs,
http://www.soapblox.net/blog/showDiary.do?diaryId=940
“I’m kind of kicking around the idea of offering the most basic SoapBlox package for free.
The condition being we’d run a banner ad at the top of your site to offset the costs we’re no longer collecting from hosting charges.
Would any of you be interested in this? Would you switch from a $15/month plan to a free plan in exchange for having a banner ad across your blog?”

Looks to me like what they do now is both collect the fee AND run the banner ad, apparantly with no control by the group/person putting up the blog.

John Yoo. Naturalized Korean creep

I was thinking yesterday Cheney’s crew of Pentagon morons was starting to make the real north Koreans look bright.

Be sure to read it. That is one of the dumbest things I have ever heard a candidate say. It really needs to be spread far and wide so that people get a feel for just how naive and overconfident this guy is. His ego is almost a large as Bush’s. Sadly that is why the media loves him just like they fawned over bush. Ditto for McCain. It’s the cujones factor.

Wow Mp!! i didn’t think that was possible.
If you can give a reasoned support to our current foreign policy.. I’m all ears.. I won’t call you a troll..you’d be Einstien genius or something..
