Poll question: Should the RNC be declared a terrorist organization.
The RNC is the Republican leadership as opposed to membership.

1. The Neocons are the terrorists
Not the traditional Republicans, nor the traditional Democrats. Just the treasonous slime that has taken over their party and is damn close to taking over ours.

3. The part about our Party is what bothers me.
If Kerry wins, a lot of the really bad guys will just migrate. We've got to back the Democrat but we will have to fight to save our Party.

4. What I hope is
that when Kerry wins all is not forgive and forget. These guys have to be investigated and prosecuted. It's the only way to stop them. Maybe if Nixon wasn't pardoned they would have learned that their was a consequece for what was done. Besides seeing Bush* and gang in orange would only start to make up for the past three+ years.

7. I did
Said no. Outlawing political organizations is undemocratic.

5. Are you people insane!?
I may hate the RNC...I may disagree with their policies...I may even believe their actions cause unmitigated horror for the world...but declaring them a "terroroist organization" is a bunch of political bullshit that accomplishes nothing but making our side feel better about itself.

Thats why I voted no.

6. Wake up. They are killing people: including Americans, destroying
our rights (or terminating them entirely), locking up Americans without rights or attorneys, and Bush wants the right to executed demonstrators and strikers under Patriot Act II. Oh, and they've looted all the money you've paid in tax dollars and into Social Security. That's seems pretty terrorist to me.

9. News to me
"Bush wants the right to executed demonstrators and strikers under Patriot Act II."

I wouldn't put it past him, but do you have a source for that?

15. Under the Homeland Security Act, demonstrators and strikers fit
within the definition of terrorists. About a month ago, Bush called for Patriot Act II to include the death penalty for terrorists.

8. PNAC....terrorist organization!
THEY are RNC members. Therefore, the RNC IS a terrorist organization.. They want to dominate the world. That's their agenda. No different than Al Qaeda, IMCPO. Then we can add the BFEE to the mix. Yup. They're terrorists.

16. According to Ashcroft, Greenpeace is a terrorist organization.
Have they killed anyone or started any wars?

17. NEA is also a terrorist organization
teachers are terrorists too. So I see no reason why the RNC should get a pass. While Teachers kill no one the RNC often takes down small planes.

14. A total lack of sense of humor for one's own foibles, I guess.
