It's no wonder his blog is jam packed with bile spewing rabid dogs.<br /><br />Guess the GOP candidates and office holders are taking the brunt here because THEY DESERVE IT.

I can't speak for the other contributors to this blog, but the way things have shaken out it looks like I do the political satire.

TA openly admits his affiliations and I appreciate it. I started reading this blog because they claimed to be "centered". They're not.<br /><br />I agree there are good and bad in each aisle and the best should rise.

But it should all be taken in perspective-TA comments on Bond, Eye comments on Suzzie and somewhere in the middle lies the truth. Each group has bad people and each group has good people, we just need to find those good people and elect them regardless of party affiliation.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2309311177399464085.post-52033515557453723212009-08-16T10:17:45.988-05:002009-08-16T10:17:45.988-05:00This blog may be from the center - but it's th...This blog may be from the center - but it's the CENTER of the Democrat Party.<br /><br />Too ashamed to state your party affiliation.

They are about 'winning' then failing to lead (Pate Phillip, Lee Daniels, George Bush?)<br /><br />Am I supposed to appreciate Mark Kirk telling PACE how to spend stimulus funds when he was against the stimulus? Great job, sir! ):<br /><br />Am I supposed to appreciate Mark Kirk breaking bad with China when we have been dependent upon China's loans at least since the Bush tax cut and a Bush war? Why didn't Mr. 'independent' bean counter speak up over the last 8 years?<br /><br />Am I supposed to be pleased that the GOP allowed the assault weapons ban expire, only to have Mr. Kirk speak to law enforcement agencies about the need to take guns off the street? (Confused yet?)<br /><br />Am I supposed to feel protected by a GOP-led Congress (in 2001) that focused on a marriage amendment and over-turning Roe instead of keeping the nation safe?<br /><br />It may help to embrace the fact that there are times when doing nothing (economy, healthcare, education, etc.) will just not cut it and that by doing nothing we are eventually spending as much or more than making needed changes.<br /><br /><br />Of course, TA, if we were to act in kind like those on your blog, we'd be referring to people we disagree with nutjobs, loose cannons, and unAmerican. Of course, we're not because some of us were raised right.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2309311177399464085.post-39994497372377857392009-08-15T20:48:26.192-05:002009-08-15T20:48:26.192-05:00Excuse me, BB, but if perceptions are everything, ...Excuse me, BB, but if perceptions are everything, what about the fact that Mr. Incumbent abandoned his senate district to run for Congress, only to turn tail and slink back to the 31st District when he was faced with a primary opponent that made him wet his panties?<br /><br />Yeah, that's a great endorsement.<br /><br />So, just out of curiosity, whatever happened to this supposedly being a centrist blog? Seems like the GOP candidates (not to mention its bloggers) are taking the brunt of your ire lately.
