"an empty suit"
a "slave to his masters"
"Stupid"
"evil"

All have been used to describe this president. By Freepers and "liberals" alike.

So those of us with eyes see the similarities. Which explains why a few people that spend far too much time in this forum can't see it.

DK/Glenn Greenwald/ Ron Paul apologists are much more fickle and unreliable Democratic voters . . . yet these same fickle people have no problem demanding that Democrats do as they say or they'll vote 3rd Party {that's why I call them Third-wayers} or threaten to take their vote and go home.

Makes sense to me. Although this whole Third Way stuff sounds weird. But as I've said before, the people who seem absolutely CONSUMED by the Third Way on this web site seem to be the most mindless, incoherently ranting lunatics here. I don't think that the Third Way would scare me half as much as these people.

Ron Paul (R) voted against the IWR as well. Does that make him a Democrat? BlueCaliDem May 2013 #38

In the House of Reps, 126 Democrats voted NO on the IRW. 6 Repubicans did so. Bluenorthwest May 2013 #94

I know the vote totoals. I was trying to make a point that just because DK voted no against the IWR BlueCaliDem May 2013 #98

If that's what you meant to say, your post was very poorly composed. Bluenorthwest May 2013 #103

No. It was correctly composed based on the thread. Perhaps you should have BlueCaliDem May 2013 #108

My mistake-- I read "term" as "team" in your previous post. /nt Marr May 2013 #139

Perfect response, Bobbie Jo. I'll leave you to respond to that one though I am surprised Number23 May 2013 #145
