For throwing Obama and the Democrat party under the bus this morning on Good Morning America. Maybe this is going to be this year's October Surprise. Out come the Clinton claws.

Counter to David Letterman's ire at McCain yesterday, which was pretty funny.

First of all, no matter how many times you or comedian Rush Limbaugh change the name of the party, you're still wrong. It's the Democratic Party. You wouldn't appreciate it if I called your party the Nazi Party, would you?

Second of all, you're absolutely right about Bill. He has not be helping Obama, the Democratic Party, or America in any bit over the last 48 hours. Methinks he's still angry and bitter over his wife losing. And to think that I believed his little dog and pony show at the convention.

Hillary needs to smack Bill upside the head with a frying pan like she did after she found out about Monica.

Big difference between "Democratic - Democrat" and "Republican - Nazi". But I'd expect nothing less from you. There is nothing derogatory or belittling about refering to the Democratic party as the Democrat party.

He IS helping America. There are people in America, Democrats like you, that are blinded by Obama. He is trying to save the Naz, er, Demacratic Party. He is trying to show America that there are some intellegent, free thinking Democrats left, they just aren't supporting the party nominee this year.

It's all about Bill . . .

Tepid stuff, all right.

I love Bill, but good grief . . .

Now, about the debates:

IT'S ALL ABOUT ME!!

Fifty of my closest friends and myself, plus a local Republican club, have scheduled a Debate Watch Party at a venue holding about 150, and we fully expect the other 100 seats to be filled with about 50 Rs and about 50 Us.

I get to talk prior to the debate starting since I'm one of the sponsors. :mrgreen:

SO DON'T BE MESSING WITH MY DEBATE SCHEDULE!!!

Thank you. :D

Obama trashed Clinton's accomplishments and praised Reagan during the primaries, then repeatedly accused Clinton of racism. Gee, I wonder why there might be some hard feelings on Clinton's part.

And I wonder who the "intelligent, free thinking" Democrats are that BiT is referring to?

This is not. If you don't mean to be derogatory or belittle them, call them what they wish to be called.

I have no political affiliation. I am a registered Independent. ;)

And, just as an aside, the Nazi party is probably more closely aligned with the Democrat party as it is the Dems who believe in more government controls and lean heavily towards socialism / communism.

From that link:
[UPDATE, Sept. 25: Clinton can't help himself: He praised McCain again today, telling Good Morning America that he understands why McCain wants to delay Friday's debate. ""We know he didn't do it because he's afraid, because Sen. McCain wanted more debates," Clinton said. "I presume he did that in good faith since I know he wanted -- I remember he asked for more debates to go all around the country and so I don't think we ought to overly parse that."]
That's what this is about? :roll:

OK... would you prefer the term "RepubliKKKan Party"? Or "Repuglican Party"? Or "Rethuglican Party"? Or "Repukelican Party"?

I agree with Fly. Use Democratic, since it's the preferred form of the people who are directly affected.

Thanks, lb, for the heads-up. I haven't snagged a gus in quite some time. Any gus is a good gus I always say.
