| Are we the "Left Wing", the "Base", or are we simply the "American People" |
|
I don't think we should let the media label us as some sort of fringe group. All we are, are people who are concerned enough about our country to spend time online expressing our concerns and doing what we can about them. We are voices that wouldn't be heard otherwise. We are the people.

It really does not matter about your political affiliation anymore. It is We The People of the United States who want our country back from a small group who seem intent on destroying it.

| 5. I was a Republican when I came to DU |
|
and I want to state for the record that the regular, suburban, bourgeois, non-zealot, non-robberbaron, married-with-children types HAVE HAD ENOUGH OF THIS CRAZY LEADERSHIP.
That is not the fringe or radical left...it is the average citizen. STOP THE INSANITY. WE WANT STRONG OPPOSITION.

| 6. I am an alienated, disenfranchised American. I hate to drag out |
|
those old anachronisms but that's how I feel.
I also feel like I am liberal and perhaps a bit leftist at times, but I feel like I am somewhat fiscally conservative (cheap).

| 7. I love when I hear the media labeling people who think |
|
as I do "the radical left" or the "far left wing of the Democratic Party". I'm a suburban mom who works full time and no one has ever called me "radical" until now! Cool, huh?
