Sykk,
If you Dems want to win, I got a feeling you're gonna have to do two things...Dump the Socialist/Communist agenda (there isn't a Socialist or Communist country in the world today that doesn't depend in some way on the good old evil USA); and get rid of certain liars and the double standard. As for Powell, He's just a little too peacenik for my tastes.

Torone ... you still pedaling that happy horse (or Bull) shit? That crap is so dried up it could be used as a weapon in Iraq or Afghanistan. It was old. outdated, and discredited when Bill Clinton was dodging the draft and GW was missing Reserve weekends. Only the truly paranoid or devoultly delusional believe that the Democratic Party in the United States stands for anything remotely resembling socalism or communism. Kindly spare me your patented Miriam-Torone Dicshunary definistions of the words -
I mean, I can understand why Rush Limbaugh pushes it - it's for ratings. He suckers in morons gullible enough to buy into it so that they'll also buy more Gold Bond Medicated Powder, the Vitamin C that Larry King is pushing, and maybe some godforsaken "health" creame guaranteed to be 9% Emu - no shit, I heard it advertised on the radio today. That whole pitch has a certain appeal to the crowd that also believes they have been kidnaped by aliens, that the WWF (or whatever they're calling themselves today) is real, and secretly believes that MOST of the National Enquirer is real too, but the mainstream media is too controlled by "them" to admit it.
And as for Powell being a "peacenik" (really groovy phrase there, daddy-o), you are sadly mistaken again. He fought for his alma matter in the turf war over how the war in Iraq would be fought. Granted, by arguing for colition-building and consultation with other nations (not to mention making sure the Army got a large piece of the upcoming party) he does qualify as being on the "peace side" in the new order...
